Mornin jeep folks!
Scoured the interwebs for river front property on the Ohio, or Salt River. Nothing currently available. In our part of the state, everyone is lake/beach obsessed, but the river is seen as a problem rather than a resource. Just a couple years ago there where dozens of plots of land with direct river access. Apparently, most got tired of paying for listings, and not having any interests.
Will be posting wanted listings on local boards for just enough land for a driveway, dock, dog run, and garage.

Well I just got the Okay from the wife on some new tools! :rock: I need a longer extender for my ratchet to change out the main battery and I'll probably get some larger sockets while I'm at it to get that oil filter cover off for the oil change too.

Knew I would not be wheeling last weekend with mothers day on Sunday. So told some of my Jeep Peeps, that I would have coffee on at 8 am on Saturday at the house. Coffee of the day was Black Rifle and Highland Grogg.

Early mornings, with a fire, Jeeps, and coffee......

I give her a pass on that since she makes a pretty decent profit on Etsy, lol.

They had one at my dealer too. SO damn tempted.

But I love my Punk'n.

GO buy it so I can live vicariously through you. :fist bump:
Its a great color and I don't believe the blue is a bad contrast with it. Honestly that front bumper would get swapped with the current one I have on my Sahara so it would wind up with red hooks on the front anyways... :devil:

I'd be more likely to get the black hard top, or even forgo the hard top entirely in my build though. I wouldn't throw this particular Jeep out of my driveway though.

I'd go with the black hard top, Bestop Sunrider for hardtop, black Mopar grill, Hothead liners, 315/70-17 KO2's, and finally the AEV's bumpers with carrier.

Done. Go play.

Well, I'd try to be done. :CWL:

I do have some good news, as far as the boat goes.
We have a solid plan for the needs of the doggos. Nice large potty patch hidden behind the stairs on the rear deck. It's non absorbent, so it won't get waterlogged in the rain, and the furry brats won't refuse to step on it. Even has a vertical side piece, so the little shithead male (Toby) will have something to aim for.

Also found an auto doggy door that can easily operate in the door for the rear deck.

I like the black grille look but I'll be honest, the only reason I went with that look is because I damaged it. Plastidip was less espensive than fixing the paint, lol.

If the factory style soft top stores easier than the trektop then I might go dual tops. otherwise I do have storage woes over the winter when I swap over to the hard top.

I was also able to locate a "cargo pontoon" that I can get more than large enough to safely ferry the edge (hopefully a jeep before too long) behind the boat. Will have to add a nice ramp, and an enclosure, but I'll be able to store a couple kayaks, and such in it's well. Will also mean my vehicle will be safe from the river flooding while I'm docked at home base.

for safety's sake... keep the windows open when you're loading the vehicle on the barge... 😳
