hey everyone, just wanted to hop in and introduce myself and possibly make some wheeling/ buddies.
i'm Logan, former Marine. bought a used 05 TJ sport in 2008 after boot camp at 19. had to sell it in 2016 for chump change in order to move back home to VA. four years later my wife (who'd promised me the opportunity to get another one) and I ordered a new wrangler! I just picked it up two weeks ago and I must say...it feels unbelieveably similar and more refined. only thing noticeable is the size, this this is massive compared to my old TJ.
its a sarge green two door with a manual tranny (old jeep was auto, I knew I wanted the stick this time). its a base sport and the only options are A/C. my son at 9 years old has been obsessed with anything and everything relating to Godzilla, and has seen EVERY movie made regarding it (his first words with "GOTZ" and "ZIYA"). it's become a father son thing. so I let him pick a name for my jeep, he said "well it's green, and small...so lets call it Baby Godzilla!" so I named it "Minilla" from the official Japanese name for baby godzilla
i'm incredibly proud and happy to own another one. I have some idea as far as upgrades but i'm a bit conflicting at what I really want to do with it. do I want to make her a massive skyjacked 37s? or keep her more inline with stock suspension and 33's? I don't know...decisions decisions.
but yall will see more of me from time to time, will be posting pictures of every little thing I do to it. thanks for all the help I've already gotten from these forums, and I hope to be apart of the larger jeeping community and develop a hobby for myself and family over this wrangler.
