I am a new G500 owner 2002 G500 one owner 79k miles. I am excited to join the community and become a G Class owner. I missed an opportunity years ago to purchase a Europa and regretted it daily. This is not a Europa, but I think it will be much better in many ways. I plan to keep the G500 all stock, with some minor upgrades to leverage its overloading capabilities. I will share some pictures as soon as the hurricane blows through.

Here are a few pictures of my 2002 G500. Its a one owner with 79k miles. It seems to have been very well cared for and has complete services records. The only issue so far is dificult low speed steering. I will dig into that tomorrow.

Welcome TriStar! I'm in Charleston also! My G is getting some body work right now but I hope to see you around. Silver '04 G55. We have a good number of CHS and SC people on the forum now, well need to arrange a meet up soon.
Congrats on finding a one owner low mileage truck like that!

Thanks for the welcome Johnathan. I have been looking for one for about a year. I was lucky enough to find this one that was a vacation home car in Palm Beach. Its is amazing shape for a twenty year old truck. I am just starting to go through everything but all I have found to date is a glove box latch that rattles. I live on DI, there are a few G's on the island for sure. Lest try to get a meet up in October. Maybe just overwhelm the cars and coffee in MP one Saturday morning.
