That there isn’t a day I regret the purchase.

From 20+ off road trips with the family. The smiles and giggles that go along with it.

To the support and guidance from the people on this board and the Jeep community in general.

To being able to once again wrench in the garage with my Pops.

Jeep ownership has helped me make some phenomenal memories.

If you’re on the fence about buying a Jeep, do it. I was leery after reading some of the horror stories in this forum, but ultimately I chalked it up to either a bad rig (it happens with every new car) or a uninformed purchaser.

And yes the mods are never complete, but that’s one of the best parts. (Pun always intended)

Thanks to all for your inspirational rigs, my wallet is lighter but my head is a whole lot happier.

I'm also just over a year of first time Wrangler ownership and couldn't agree with you more. I'm just north of you in Castle Rock. We're blessed to live in some great Jeeping country.

Traded in my Audi S5 sports car and got a wrangler. It's not fast, but you can do so much with it.

What are the specs on your wheels/tires/lift?

Great photos and great kids! This is what life and Jeeps are all about!

You need more color in your life, though. EVERYTHING on this photo is GRAY: the Jeep, the homes, the minivan in the garage, the car behind... ;)

Looks like you have some fun, awesome kids!!
We just got our first Jeep last month. Our experience is exactly the same. Even the dogs like to hang out while the mods are being installed.
Sometimes I even smile when I'm thinking about driving the Jeep. 😁

I'm in the Springs and Colorado is by far the most beautiful state I've ever lived in or been to! It offers so much in terms of outdoor experience. That being said, I'm retiring this year and we are in the process of moving back to Oklahoma the land of flat, windy, extreme weather . Between spending almost every weekend snowboarding in the winter and exploring the trails in the summer. I honestly don't know what I am going to do for fun:(.

you may be right.... time to scour the forum for some touch of color ideas.
