Well I just bought my first Jeep. Tuck, named after my 2 year old son calling it a Monster Tuck, has just joined our life a little over a week ago. He is a 2014 Jeep Rubicon with a few mods. I had been looking for about 2 months when I came across Tuck on page 22 of Kijiji with one picture and a brief description. He was owned by a mechanic who had a custom motorcycle shop. He had never been off road, never been driven in the rain, or in the winter. His chassis had been oiled down every couple of months to prevent rust. The interior smelled new and was spotless. I was instantly suspicious.... Who buys a Rubicon, owns it for 3 years, only puts 34,000km's on it and never goes off road. Then invests a bunch of money on 35's, after market bumpers, winch (never used, he was not sure what button to push to turn the remote on), and proceeds to park it in his heated garage while his BMW sits outside in the Edmonton winters. But here Greg was looking for some additional money for his business, so now I am the proud new owner of Tuck.
I know very little about Jeeps and hopefully Wayalife will be a great place to get some good advice about getting off the beaten track with my family and what mods to do to my jeep.
First question, what new headlights should I get, the stock ones are truly terrible. I have only owned luxury SUV's from Volvo and Acura and moving from those headlights to stock JK's is quite a shock. lol
Anyway thanks for the posts, and if anyone is from Edmonton Alberta hit me up.
Regards
