Hello everyone, from Orlando. I’m a new Jeep owner. I’ve had mine about a month now and am loving it.

Very sharp clean looking 2dr. I like the color scheme. Wouldn’t change a thing. Welcome to the gang!

Has anyone every run the trails at Seminole State Forest? Is it worth the trip from Brevard County?

If you are referring to the one off SR46 between Sanford And Mt. Plymouth, there are no trails for off roading. I used to hunt Spring Gobler and all I saw was one dirt road.

I'm heading out to a colleague's camp at Suburban in Holopaw tomorrow, any advice? He has a fenced in camp, but I hear it gets wild out there at night.

It does get crazy out there. Lots of drinking. We love that area though. Bull Creek is in the same area. We were out there last weekend running creeks and trails.

His camp is fenced off and he told me that the main trail takes you right there. It shouldn't be too wet, as a newer Jeeper I don't want to get The Sarge pinstriped and bogged out. :)

Edit: He did tell me that it gets crazy out there at night, but his camp is in the 'quieter' area and since his camp is over an acre, the craziness stays away from the camp.

Gotcha so private land. That’s probably a better idea. I haven’t bogged down yet, I’ve pulled 4 people out. I did get pretty pin striped going down small game trail #2. It looks good though. We should meet up at Bull Creek sometime. Small Game trail #3 has a couple of long water crossings that are a lot of fun to get into. It’s like old Florida back in there.

I'm game, PM me some time and we can make it a family trip. I love old Florida, my family moved here in 1980 and my wife was born here. This is the time of year for Jeeping in Florida, I do need a sunshade for when it is sunny out and the soft top is opened up.

Those ole heavy trucks don’t stand a chance.
The JLUS performed pretty well out there (Suburban in Holopaw). Lots of sand and I got bogged a bit following my friend who was on a quad. I should have brought a compressor and aired down a bit.
