Hi Everybody!

So I finally have her. And she's beautiful.

I moved out to Michigan from England three years ago for work and leased a Mango Tango 2011 JK straight away. Finally got out of my lease this year and after trying to find the last possible 2013 Dozer on earth, I decided to pick up a 2014 Anvil JKU instead. Had ALOT of BS from the dealership (tried to sell me a $65k Dozer AEV for $35k, ordered my Anvil in July, first one arrived a few weeks later but was the wrong spec, ordered again, didn't arrive until October...).

Now the Michigan winter has hit big time and I'm putting those 35s to work haha.

35 inch tires = Snow Hoonigan!

Had to dice off part of the air damn because the tires were rubbing on full lock. So I parked her in the "garage", grabbed some tape and my Dremel and went to town. I love that plug socket in the car. Genius!

She has taken to dwarfing other peoples cars now. Smug little bastard

Thanks 7kings and twotonevert. I'm really looking forward to getting stuck in and modding her out during next summer. Just gotta let the bank balance recover first.

I suppose I should list my current mods;

2.5 inch AEV lift
35 inch duratracs
17 inch pro comp 7069
Antenna X 13inch replacement

I'm sure I'll be hitting everyone up in the summer for hints and tips on what to do

Thanks, yeah I love the colour, it's very military esque, especially with the simple black wheels. The outlet is located on the front of the centre console. I think it's a Sahara only option though if I remember right.
