Speaking of, ya'll want to plan a group ride for April 16. I will need a lot of instruction on the trail and don't want to attempt it without those who know what's going on.

The park may be better, may be the same...I don't know. I would say, if its close to you, then give it a try.
The same haters on Stoney Lonesome seem to forget that Winrock, Wheelin in the Country, and any other OHV park has had their share of growing pains. They didn't just magically appeared and were great from the opening day.

Stoney Lonesome
Seriously, it probably is a fun place for a new Jeep owner. Has some tougher stuff, but mostly a number of nice relaxing trails that would allow you to learn about your vehicle in a relatively safe manner.
Below pic is one someone took while wheeling there.

Dont know about Stoney Lonesome, have never been there, heard the stories about it being a dust bowl. I drive by it frequently and the area you can see from the road is still a dust bowl.

So you're tellin me my stock jku wouldn't be much good there. That sucks, i'm up for trying it anyway though.
Oh, and is a budget boost worth it, or should i wait and get a "real" lift. I'm not looking for huge height, she's still my daily driver, but i was thinking 2.5in lift, 33 inch tires and a set of discos. Of course, this is when my current tires wear out.
