2022 Jeep JLUR XR
Congrats! Out of the factory, that is a sweet ass ride and will be able to do more than 90% of people will do with it. I got a 2022 XR. But jf you wanna get looks, performance/functionality, or just have fun with it, it's endless and addictive. be careful. I'm a pringles can, once I pop, I can't stop. hence 6 months later i have $20k into mine that "I'm not going to upgrade because its a XR" have fun

Welcome to the nut house. You can gain a lot of great information here. Enjoy your stay. When I got my 2020 JLURD I really didn't think I was going to spend much money on it. Well, I did. At least done for now. Well thinking about long arms, 6 pack shocks, 37 in tires and a couple more things. Enjoy the jeep.

Welcome and congratulations. Know, up front, that your new Jeep, as it sits, is more capable than 90+% of the vehicles out there, not to mention being more capable than 95% old drivers?. Do yourself a HUGE favor, put together a basic self rescue kit and a basic survival kit, then get out and use that Jeep the way YOU will be using it. Unless you find yourself getting into Extreme off roading your new Rig will do everything you WANT to do as t sits. Don’t fall into the “gotta have bigger tires, gotta lift it, etc” trap. In almost every case those things are NOT needed ( maybe wanted because someone likes the look, but definitely not “needed” for the vast majority of folks. Enjoy the Jeep. If, buy some chance, you find a problem off road that keeps causing you issues, there is always time to add modifications. If you don’t need them, you’ve saved yourself a lot of $$ that can be better spent on actual trips?

I agree Shibadog, I think the engineers did a great job with the Jeep.
