Hello from Pennsylvania. Recently purchased my third wrangler and first JL. Looking forward to reading through the forum and staying up on the latest topics. Just planning some mild mods for mild off roading.

Hello from northern Arizona (and sometimes southern California).
I'm on my second Jeep, a 2023 JL Sport 2 door.
The first one is a 1986 CJ7 Renegade... an absolute beast.
I love wheeling and fishing... or is it fishing and wheeling.

Looking to do some mods on the JL and from what I've read thus far this is a good place to get advice. First mod would be a suspension lift.

Hi,
My name is Scott. Denver native, but have been living on the Western Slope for about 20 years.
Bought a 21 Wrangler Unlimited diesel a couple of weeks ago. Seemed a shame to be this close to so many good trails and not have a Jeep.
Previously owned a 69 Willys Commando, a K5 Blazer and a 1975 CJ5 with the 258 straight six.
No stranger to off road as a Colorado native, and in the past have driven most of the typical, popular trails in the state, and the Moab area with much more basic Jeeps.
So far I'm enjoying the JLURD, and its a long way from a rag top 75 CJ!
Coming from a very easy to maintain (and reliable) Honda Element, I'm a bit leery of the complexity of these modern Jeeps. But it sure is fun to drive!

My profile pic is my dog looking at what will soon become our new vehicle just as we pulled up to check it out

Yes, your dog I'm sure is beautiful, or handsome. By the colors in his/her face, I am guessing Australian Sheperd? I have one and we love her to pieces!

So I’m in Anthem AZ (@Old Dogger heya neighbor). I don’t want to poopoo my old ride, it was more than people gave it credit for but old school and a lower payment won out. Went from a 2021 BroncoSport Badlands with lift and tire upgrades to a 2023 2.0 JLU Sport S. Fleet maintained and almost 10k under KBB, Jeep Used Certified. So far, I miss some of the creature comforts but that’s about all. The BS was capable, until it wasn’t tall enough. It made some great memories tho. The JLU is even “same” colors…. Go figure

I look forward to the fun of taking this blank canvas on a journey through the years as it grows along with me. I’ve already learned a lot scanning the forums (I was heavy in the bronco-sport forum for a long time).

Thanks for the welcome.
The forum was a wealth of pre-purchase info, and I want to give everyone that contributes here a big shout-out for providing that info!

Yes, the fur baby is an aussie sheppard mutt/mix.

Howdy all, just got into Jeeping about a month ago, went through a couple of initial Jeeps that I took back, but ended up falling in love with a 2024 Wrangler Willys, gave me a lot of the options I wanted without the Rubicon price tag.

I live in Idyllwild California and have so many great trails near home, and not far off. I look forward to reading the posts here and contributing whet I can.

Hi everyone, first time Wrangler owner here in SoCal. I've owned Jeep vehicles before, and finally bought the model I've always wanted. I'm looking forward to customizing it, and have started looking at lift/wheel/tire options. So far the biggest "mod" has been a Bulletpoint phone mount.
