Click Bait, I know. But here me out....
I don't have a JL, yet. I still have my 04 TJ and 16 Silverado. Whenever someone buys my TJ I have every intention of trading in my Silverado on a JLUR. However, a friend of mine who I camp and offroad with got me looking in the 5th Gen 4Runner TRD. Which I'm sure even just mentioning on here is is sacrilege. But in all honestly, it's probably one of the closest competitors to the Wrangler, just behind the ZR2.
So during my research into 4Runners, which I know absolutely nothing about, I keep seeing the same website www.trail4runner.com. For someone who is a newb and outsider to the Yota world, this website has been amazing and the more I read it, the more I'm being drawn to a 4Runner. The content, professionalism, and detailed step-by-step instructions on this website can easily help any newb build a bada$$ 4Runner without having to search through pages and pages of mildly somewhat unimportant although sometimes humorous post on a forum.
I am by no means new the Jeep world either. I'm also a mechanically inclined and wrenching on my own cars is nothing new and I even helped build a Ridler winning car a few years back. But what I'm getting at, is the Wrangler needs a website like Trail4Runner. (Which I'm not the guy to do it) Aftermarket support for the Wrangler is easily 10x that of both the Tacoma and 4Runner so Wrangler content would be tough to choose. As long as steps were thoroughly detailed with clear pictures, anyone can provide content. But the support it could provide, in addition to this forum, for new people would be extremely useful. Someone brand new to Wranglers may find the answer to their question that was asked 50 times before. I don't want to discourage new members from posting, but how often does a new member get beat down or receive sarcastic responses to a simple question and never to return? Maybe a blog on the homepage, similar to Trail4Runner, could help ease a new member and new Wrangler owners into the community.
