Default New Jeep Owner from VA

Hey everyone! Finally got my first Jeep! Working from out of town, but bought it from my old dealership. Will go pick it up Friday! Anybody have
any ideas to make this into a beach/surf fishing cruiser? I go down to OBX pretty often and would like to take it down there during the weekends. Thanks guys!

Thanks man. Always wanted a Jeep and finally got one. I live in Newport News, so not far from OBX. I used to go down just about every weekend to hangout and surf. Only went down a couple times last year.

This is my second Jeep. Had a CJ 7 many many years ago. Always wanted another one and finally got one. I used to live in Danville, VA a very long time ago.

Welcome from Chesapeake! A slightly more aggressive tire will work well for the beach....did I mention I've got 4 stock sized Goodyear duratracs for sale they've got more bite than the regular sport tires.

Welcome aboard. We go to Corolla pretty regular may see ya down there. Receiver hitch with cooler rack works for me. Also some Weather Tech ( or similar mats) are helpful getting san out. Have fun....
