Lot of surfers here.

R8rrok your license plate looks familiar. I might've seen your Jeep somewhere in the Bay Area. I work in San Jose, maybe I've seen your Jeep.

My next hobby will be jet skiing. I just have to get one and there's a lake in San Jose (where 85 meets 101) that allows them.

Oh and let's not forget tailgating!! Can't wait to tailgate my Jeep. Bought the detonator yellow because it's the color of my almamater. Can't wait to drive by the stadium on game day with me giant SJSU flag attached to the back.

I used to "jeep" in high school with my "73" Wagoneer. We to college, had a family and could never justify a 2 door or liberty or etc.... So when the 4 door came out I showed my wife and it was her turn for a vehicle and we got it. Less then a week later she handed me the keys saying it's mine.

So just owning it is a major one. Now after a year, I think she's ready to do some real Jeepin!

Also minor restoration of old cars (right now 79 Vette, 87 5.0 Stang and 73 Triump Spitfire.)

AlthoughI feel a bit inadaquite (sp?) based on the outdoorsy stuff the others do.
