there, in any weather. It goes up and down steep
grades, crosses rough country, travels through mud,
sand and snow. You can ride fences with it, and take
tools and repair parts right with you. You can carry
salt and feed wherever your herds are ranging. You
can cut across roadless open country in search of strays
or injured animals, and to help out at calving and
branding time. The "Jeep" pulls the chuck wagon,
hauls supplies, does work that saves time and money
the year around.
