How do you let your age define you?

Age does not define me, I define my age

I need to buy a used car. Not a want; a need. I still like taking off to parts unknown; off-roading I'm in my 70's but feel young and healthy, fit and have a lot of energy. Go places. Do things.
My ideal would be an old Wrangler Rubicon as it's just me and my big dog. My children talked me out of it because "Those are for the younger crowd ,Mom!"
Even an old classic pick up truck would suit my style but "you would just be trading problems, one for the other!" "It would always be in the shop!"
I'm looking at a Jeep Liberty Sport now but I'm feeling like I'm "settling". It's what I'm "expected" to drive at my age.
I guess we have to do that when we reach a certain chronological age., don't we? No more adventure?

Do you? Do you do what's "expected" or what you really want to do?
I did my year's solo trek through Alaska and got my hundred year old mountain cabin in the woods when I was younger. So now that I'm older I have to live normally? I've been told I qualify to get free meals at the Senior Center now and can play cards in the afternoon. OMG! I can't think of a worse HELL!

Do all of you adapt to your circumstances without fight? Do you "settle" into the way others perceive you? Just curious.

Don't

The Liberties suck

Stay with Wranglers

Mid to late '90s

Less bells/whistles the better

Not much to go wrong
Cheap to maintain

Bought mine new in '99
It's goin' with me when I kick
