i like the adaptive cruise control; hills do wear it out a bit. Honestly I think every vehicle I’ve driven except 1 ton unloaded diesels seems to work overtime on hills with cruise control on.
For only twice a year I’d bribe my neighbors with beer to help make the swap. I swap a much heavier ikamper twice a year but my helpers are also working in my business so they are kinda obligated to the 5 minute lifting exercise. ?
Rubicon Gas Model
We just put an Alu cab canopy and rtt on it for the first year of use. I’m glad we did not make bigger changes until having used it in a lot situations. It went many very cool places stock.

Pretty simple setup. AEV Dualsport high capacity kit, 35” falken, Arb bumper and harbor freight winch, Alu Cab canopy to hold the tent on top and basic camping setup inside when we travel. Planning to keep it this way for a while. It’s our first Jeep. Look too closely and you see all the trail...
