Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

 If you always have, on your person, at least 2 ways to make fire, you might be a prepper.

If "they" want whatever I decide to put on Facebook, "they" can have it.

Awesome machines. Comfortable, pretty good off-road too if you get the decent tyres. Should be able to find one that's had the air suspension replaced and had springs put on there instead.

These go wrong quite frequently (the air suspension) and the cost to get it fixed is often more than the vehicle is worth. Some had BMW engines too, although that could have just been the diesel ones) - so no cambelt, they used a chain instead.
