Whelp, I finally pulled the trigger. Picked up a 2015 JKUR w/ 25k miles. Back in the day, I had an '82 CJ7 with a modest BDS 4" lift and 33s. It was my daily driver that I would off-road in up at George Washington National Forest and Paragon Off Road Park (now closed) in PA. I ended up flipping it on 66 and had to do a complete frame of restoration. Spent thousands on ARB lockers, Dynatrac axles, etc. Anyway, kids came along and I sold it for pennies on the dollar (so depressing to think about). I eventually picked up a '77 Scout II but it wasn't like the Jeep world. Kept it for about 5 years with minimal mods and sold it for about what i paid for it. I've had the itch for years, but my kids just weren't old enough. Now they're 12 (twins) and 10 and my oldest boy is really in to cars, so I convinced my wife to get back to our old days of Jeepin. Here's a couple pics of it. Only immediate plans are to install a soft top and get those doors off I used to be a member of "Off Camber Crawlers," but not sure if they're around any more. I'd be interested in getting hooked up with a Maryland Jeep/Off Road club if anyone has suggestions.
