Default First time Jeep owner

I acquired a 2018 JK Unlimited Rubicon in Gobi on New Year's Eve weekend.



After the first couple of months of ownership, I have already made a few minor mods to address things that I feel should have been default from the factory (e.g. all-weather mats, hood lock) as well as a winch install.



Anyway, looking forward to enjoying my first Jeep.

Yeah, I kind of have to use it out in the dirt. My primary and secondary shooting range facilities are both 'trails' over a mile long each. My main range facility actually can get flooded out if it ever rains.

Last month, some guy tried his luck when it was raining, and it didn't work out so well for him: https://www.sbsun.com/2018/01/09/flo...twater-rescue/



But yeah, you won't see me risking that in my Jeep anytime soon.
