Wink Im So Excited! New Jeep Owner in Orange County CA :D First new car!

First off... for everyone!!!

Hello all, my name is Nate... im the proud new owner of a '11 Wrangler Sport! Black, with freedom hardtop, 17 in. factory rims (the ones that come on the sahara/rubicon i think??), and most importantly manual! ( almost opted for air conditioning bypass... but the gf has more sway than i thought...)

I Love how my Jeep doesnt have any fancy shit- no bluetooth, leather, heated seats, power windows power locks... no offense to you guys with... but my car just feels like classic jeep even though its still way too clean and shiny!

Im looking forward to learning from you guys! Any recommendations on first modifications to do? I plan on taking it to Holy Jim's in Trabuco Canyon area Orange County... and any other beginner trails u guys can recommend.

I really cant wait to get it dirty!!! THANKS!!!!!!!!!

BTW my bad bout the car thing... lol if i said first new jeep maybe people would surmise that I had a used one previously...

Welcome to the forum. Trabuco Canyon and Wildomar OHV off of Ortega HWY is where I learned and popped my cherry.

Don't ever call the Jeep a "Car" because everytime you do that god kills a kitten.

Welcome bud. Try wheeling it stock a couple times before upgrading. Just so you know the capabilities.
