Doug's First Wrangler and Build

[RDoug]

I've been wheeling on and off most of my life. My best off-roader (so far) has been my 5th Generation 4Runner. I can't believe I'm finally getting a Wrangler!

Anyhow, I believe posting your build here is a right of passage. So, here it goes.

I hope to see you out on the trail.

Congrats. 4 runner is a great vehicle, but I think you will be blown away with what your Jeep can do.

Not sure when it will come in. This will be my first Wrangler and I am anxious to drive it. I have always had Ram and Ford pickups so this will be a new experience for me.

Congratulations on ordering a wrangler. I have had mine for a month and a half and I am pretty sure I have spent everyday of it researching and or ordering things for it.

No doubt bro, good to see someone else in here that knows F1

Going to miss him next year. I would love for him to come back as an announcer for one race just to see what it would be like.

I imagine it would go something like this:

"The race has started"

" ... "

"The race has finished"

Welcome to the family Doug. Congratulations, and enjoy the ride.

For sure Kimi will be missed. This has been a great season so far. The penultimate race is next weekend and there's still the championship to sort out as well as McLaren v. Ferrari. I'll pop some popcorn and enjoy the battles.

 

[JCJeepWillys]

Hamilton's fan or Max's, RedBull or Mercedes no matter what's your favorite, this year is been great!!!

 

[RDoug]

So, I'm learning there are many Jeep owners which are F1 fans. I'm going to like it here.

Nice set up. love the 3.0

 

[RDoug]

With all this time of waiting, it's given me the opportunity to figure out what I want to do to it. Given what I have saved up to date, I have an "initial purchase" planned and will likely pull the trigger the moment I receive word my Wrangler has arrived at the dealer. And, as I continue to save funds, there will be a second wave of parts and accessories in a later order. So far I'm only a few hundred bucks short of savings for phase one.

 

[RDoug]

PS... I welcome any thoughts, suggestions, questions, other on the list thus far.

Cheers.
