Why sell it? Keep them both. They are both good vehicles and have their uses. If I had room and money I would have both.
Course, if money is the deciding factor then you have to flip a coin.
Good luck with that.

Sad thing, the last 2 times Jeeps I saw traded for Pinzes, the Pinzes were in bad shape and the Jeep owner got the short end of the deal..
Not to say, that there isn't a Pinz owner looking to trade.
Also repost in the classifieds with the details on your Jeep and what you are hoping for.

Thank you for the responses. Its all true!!!
I know the Jeep is a better vehicle all round.
If I could, I would have both but I have parking & cash limitations.
As for trading...I'm real picky and stubborn.
I already know the condition of my Jeep (its still under warranty)
Its madness !!! But thats why this forum exists.

"Inferior"...Depends on who's looking at it. I'm the one who want a Pinzgauer over my Jeep.
All around sort of means,the jeep has a bunch of extra options that most people don't really need.(myself included) Like most modern vehicles.
Besides, im not calling the Pinz inferior or the jeep superior.

Ask Todds112. He sold a Rubicon I think shortly after acquiring a 712. If you can ride in a Jeep every day I think the Pinz will be ok. The heater sucks but aside from that they are comfy I think. I don't even listen to the radio in the mini van anymore, partially due to my near deafness from riding around in a pinz and partially due to my forgetting that regualr vehicles have radios.

I would love a cross between a 710K and a 712M.
712DK !!!
