Haha it does kinda look like Vietnam, It's amazing seeing the diversity between members, now we just need someone with some snow experience to chime in.

What's funny to me is our elevation, we go wheeling below sea level over here!

(I have some new pics from yesterday to upload shortly)

Yesterday my buddy and I headed out to Suburban Estates in Holopaw, FL to scout our potential new "property"



This 2.5 acre lot gains us access to 11,000+ acres of land to play on, only 1 hr South of Orlando



Driveway






Plenty of trees



Mostly Oak, FL Pine, & Palmettos



Brush hog required






























Shameless Jeep rescue

I've had the truck for a little over a year now! (13 months tomorrow to be exact)

Have been working on the floor and rear storage system over the past few weeks / month, updates to come

For now, another 2000 miles in the book! Happy New Year!!

Finally got her tinted, on New Years Day!



This should have been done 20 years ago, definitely adds attitude to the truck

Floor Update: Stage 1

After the first year spent taking care of the mechanical repair, maintenance, & basic mods - I was finally ready to install the floor / rear storage

Final touch up & detail before install



Boom





















Stage 1: Complete
