Sooo….. Curious minds want to know :grinning:
What are your initial thoughts/ plans?
I am very impressed with the crawling ability, very awesome. Size is tight for me, I was to darn big for the Liberty and that was why I built my love, my sequoia...... But it was a big heavy rider and I wanted to get back to boulder crossings LOL, so I got the Glady. While it is not near as roomy it is good enough for me and besides, who needs room when crawling over rocks?

Lift is on it's way: 3.5" Overland+ - JT - PACKAGE DEAL with Falcon SP2 3.3 Shocks and steering stabilizer. Install on the 24th, can not wait! But gives me time to get my 37's and wheels.

This is going to be a really great rig. Do you already have plans for trips?
