I bought this Copperhead Pearl 2014 Unlimited Rubicon on May 23rd.
It is not my first Jeep but it is my first Wrangler.
Here's why I bought it:
My offroading skills are basic and rusty (sold my GC Overland in 2006) and I'll be wheeling on class 4 roads in Vermont which while sometime challenging aren't really Moab or the Rubicon trail!
This thread will chronicle my built. It will be a slow build, I'll add things like a lift and armor as I need them. For now my skills will probably be limiting me more than the Jeep.
It is not my first Jeep but it is my first Wrangler.
Here's why I bought it:
- I've been wanting a Wrangler since I was 15. One more item knocked off the bucket list.
- My Z4 is not a very good winter car (duh!) and I can't keep relying on the wife's SUV.
- I bought a country house in Vermont and need a country vehicle.
- After being hit by two hurricanes (Irene and Sandy) and freak snow and ice storms in recent years, I want a good get-out-of-Dodge-no-matter-what vehicle for the next storm or zombie apocalypse.
- I wanna go wheeling!
