   Looks like the NJ Turnpike, am I correct ? Once while traveling the turnpike early in the pre-dawn morning, I spotted a car carrier parked in a truck stop loaded with my own vehicles; What a RUSH. So cool to realize this is your own caravan.

   Mike, I thought so, too, but Anthony texted back: 287 and rt 17 in Mahwah. So, probably on 287 near that intersection. I just wonder who owns them. Three WWII jeeps in apparently good condition is a nice collection.

   Thanks Joe for the information, familiar with the location. I myself often wonder who owns all these "Big Boy Toys". NJ has a large contingent of vintage vehicle collectors who have the bucks to make their dreams come true. One day while driving my 48 CJ2A along Iowa Ave in Paterson, NJ, I was privileged to meet Frank Malatesta of Horseless Carriage Carriers. He invited me in to view his collection of classic vehicles including many military Willys Jeeps, WW2 1940's through 1960's. You name it, he had it tucked away in his warehouse. This is typical of NJ.
