Welcome back bro! I'm super excited to see you back in a Jeep. Also love the color of yours [emoji3]. I know you said no mods but if you want them I have a set of from stock rubi springs that you can have for postage. Not sure but might level you out a little. Anyway, nice to have you and the family back in the WAL family!!!

Thank you! That's a very kind offer but I'll have to pass. While most people think it's a financial issue, to us it's really more of getting the most out of our JKU just as it was made. :) but thank you again!! Really kind of you.

I have nothing against Toyota, we've never had bad luck with them until now! Personally I love the new tacomas! Especially the new TRD Offeoads!

Thank you!!
 
I have to say I am enjoying this new UConnect 430. I wasn't sure if I'd need such a nice radio on a JK but it is awesome! Nothing like plugging in an iPod and having 50gigs of music!
 
After a busy day, and clocking about 150 miles on Steel's odometer, I only managed to snag one picture. What a disappointment!

Somehow i missed this new thread...too many adult beverages probably. Congrats to you on getting back in a jeep. It killed me to see you sell Onyx. Steel is gonna make a great story for herself.

You know; if I would have had a Jeep around Christmas I think I could too.. What an interesting weather pattern. I'm sure we will get some wintery mix before its all said and done. I am thankful to have a 4x4 now just in case!

And now the first photo of Steel now that we officially own her.

Steel is a 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited sport in Billet Silver. She has multiple options but specifically the tracloc rear differential and the Uconnect430 radio were requested. Happy to be back in a JKU!

Of course, it wasn't long before Steel was offroad, in 4 wheel drive, and spending her first time driving through the forest off of pavement. :)

Those off road pics need to be in the jeep brochure. They look great.
 
Glad to see your back your last build helped me out a lot and pointed me in th direction I ultimately ended up going ... Good luck with the new jeep
 
Welcome back brother. You have a fresh slate now to build upon. I look forward to the build and pictures.

I was up in your neck of the woods this past week. Mostly in Longview but went over to Kilgore and grabbed some BBQ at Country Tavern. I am glad to be back in South Texas where it is a little warmer.

Thanks for the welcome! Glad to be back :) Country Tavern is great food but I personally prefer Carters in East Longview. It may be in an old Gas station but it's great BBQ :)
