Default Jeeps

Can be fixed up so great. I saw several today and it just made me want one real bad. I checked a few out online and noticed they have a four door Wrangler now. I don't think it is a Wrangler if it is four door. I wouldn't think it would be as nice for four wheel driving in, do you?

Where would you ride this? Like bah-hahing? or on the roads? I love to go out "mudding" and doing so in a jeep sounds pretty fun. Do you own a jeep already? Have you ever?

Used to. Sold it but I am going to get another. We mainly go in the woods, mudding as that is the best way to go riding in a jeep I'd say. I'm all about the older soft top jeeps. They are the best.

All my vehicles except two have been 4X4's. My older full size Blazer and Jimmy were lifted and seen a lot of mud. The Jimmy had 7" of lift and 40" tires. I had it in Panama with me and used to take it in the jungle before I sold it and went to a 85 Jeep CJ7. It too seen the jungle and beaches. Since then I had a 91 YJ Wrangler, 84 Ford Bronco II which seen a lot of desert driving before I moved back to Illinois , an 02 Dodge Dakota Quad cab and now I have a 04 TJ Rubicon. Right now it's our only vehicle in the family so it doesn't get too much off road activity. But I do have plans on customizing it once I get my wife her own car. I'm kind of getting turned off to all the dirt trail park driving and rock climbing everyone is doing. I rather be back out west where you can just drive in the desert and make you own way, exploring as you go.

We used to own an old CJ-7, it was an '82. I loved that thing, eventually it died and we had kids so it wasn't practical to get another. I am not a fan of the YJ, I don't care for the square headlights, I like the TJs, they go back to the round headlights.

My parents had an old Jeep when I was a kid, we used to sneak it and go mudding in it. Every summer in my town we have a "Jeep Jamboree" I love to sit and watch the parade of Jeeps, they are awesome.

Friends of mine have an old Cherokee and he is a mechanic so he has built that thing from all new parts. He used his Jeep in his wedding, she needed a step stool to get in and out because of the lift kit. It was cool.

I have had a Jeep CJ for 37 years now, my 79 I bought new,

I'm not into the new form of wheeling, I just like trail riding like I have always done

My husband and I love Jeeps! We've owned a Cherokee, a CJ5 and a Wrangler and have enjoyed everyone of them. We rented one when we went to the Grand Canyon and learned alot about what types of large rocks and small trails they can get through. Totally fun!
