Crossbar is fun and huge for a private park. If you decide to make the run to Disney, let me know, it’s 40 minutes away, be happy to join

There are 2 major differences between new Wranglers and FSJs. FSJs are meant to be both utilitarian and capable, not just capable. FSJs are also rarely initially recognized as Jeeps by the average American.

Heater kept up enough that I was in a sweatshirt and not completely bundled up. Then as it got all the way up to 0° the heater started blowing a lot more nice warm air.

I remember growing up in ND, with sub zero temps, and our feet would get cold while driving. Defrosters needed to be running on high to keep our breath from fogging up the inside of the windshield. Radiator covered completely with a piece of cardboard, so engine would generate enough heat for the heater.
Do not miss that kind of weather.

Cool view driving the truck home after wrestling practice today, first real trip on the new tires. Handled beautifully on corners (beautifully for a jeep at least).

Had a pretty cool view this morning on my drive into school. Benefits of leaving at 5:45 to go lift at school before hand is you get to see some cool sunrises out in the country.
