Hey All - I just ordered a 2026 Moab 392. I plan on it being my daily driver.

I am retired and have a bit of car/truck bug.

I have been a Jeep enthusiast since 1988 when I purchased an'88 YJ, that I still have today. It is mostly stock. I installed the Mopar MFI kit in '96 or '97. The YJ currently has 250,000 miles on it.

This pic is from a few years ago.

I did have a 2014 JK 2 door that I installed most of the AEV catalog along with a 4.56 gears, a front Dynatrac ProRock 44, front ARB air locker, and a Torsen rear limited slip. I sold the JK in 2023.

I moved on to a 23 JTR that I did not modify but will trade in for the Moab.

I do have a Warn EVO 10S and the Mopar winch mount that I purchased for the JTR but never installed. I will be installing both on the Moab. I will also be installing a 67 Designs dash mount. I have had a really good experience with their unit in the JTR. I will need to purchase a new 67 Designs unit due to the new dash design in the 24s and up.

I will post pics of the Moab when it arrives.

Hi everyone!

Started wheeling about a year ago. Started out stock, but after a few upgrades got the bug!!! Put on 35s, 3.5 inch lift, lots of skid plates, bumpers, winch, track bars, aluminum tie rod, and reinforcement brackets which all allowed me to do the Rubicon in October without a hitch!!!

Hello!

I’ve been on here a few weeks now. I had the fortunate circumstance of getting a 2025 Rubicon as a rental while my car was in the shop. At first, I was skeptical. I’ve never owned a Jeep, nor did I ever plan to. I’ve actually only driven EVs over past several years. However, during the past month with my rental, and over 1500 miles, I decided to trade my car in for one as soon as I got it back. Less than a week later, I did just that.
My new-to-me 2020 Sahara Ecodiesel.

Definitely wasn’t exactly a rational decision, but I’m happy with it.

Owning a Jeep is just half the fun, the other half is hanging out with us knuckle heads on this board....

It’s Dan. British Columbia Canada.
just traded my 2017 JK Sport into a 2024 Rubicon X 2 door.
It’ll be my daily driver, Ridiculous I know, I was looking for a fully loaded two door and this was the one I found.
I’ve got two other Jeeps for wheeling.
2005 TJ Unlimited with a small lift on 32 x 10.5 BFG KM3, mostly stock otherwise, but it’s been plenty capable, I’ve done nearly the entirety of Moab and a good portion of Telluride with the smallest jeep in the club, it’s just a great trail rig.
1992 Jeep YJ. 5.0 mustang motor. NP435 transmission. NP205 transfer cage. Ford 9” rear with a Detroit. High pinion 44 front with an ARB and 4.88 gears. 38.5x14.5 Super Swamper Sx. It’s loud obnoxious and a lot of fun.
