Splitting time between Austin and Killeen for work. Got a 2018 JLU Wrangler Rubicon last month and actually found this forum looking up info on CB and HAM radios. Decided to join and hope to learn more about comms and more related to overlanding. My decision was inspired by my girlfriend's JKU in the picture, I feel the JLUR is an open canvas waiting for upgrades. Now if only the I could find a roof rack I like that didn't require drilling into the hard top...20180930_132135.jpg

Welcome, Matt, great looking JLUR, I really love that iridescent green color, reminds me of the Fig Beatles we have here in the Southwest

Thank you all for the warm welcome. Cool to see there seems to be a decent amount of people around the Austin area.
