yep, and my kids absolutely love it. every time we go, they say we have brought the jeep back to its natural habitat. they still have a few years before they can get behind the wheel, and they are not happy about it.

I haven't had much of an opportunity. I don't really plan to make any trips just to wheel, but if I'm on vacation somewhere that has a scenic drive I'd be willing to make it happen.

If I had a Jeep 15 years ago things would be different! No kids, no dogs, no cats, ... but no money!

I'm an old Jeep historian. I purchased the JT to haul my old Jeeps to shows. After 50 years of driving Jeeps I'm qualified to say that as long as you are having fun - if your are rock crawling, mall crawling, stuck in traffic or sitting in driveway or apartment parking lot - it really is a Jeep thing. No one else needs to understand.

I off-road, but I do not rock crawl, so this depends on what wheeling means. I can't afford to break anything on this ride, haha. I've been actively seeking another TJ or an XJ for the stuff I'm scared to try in my daily.

We bought our first Overland JT last year to have a convertible truck, but took an Offroading 101 class with our son who wanted his own Jeep and found we both really enjoy the rock crawl experience and community. Now I drive a JTR and my wife has her own JLUR and we go wheeling as frequently as we can. We even bought a camper we pull so we can camp and wheel all weekend.

I'm all for people using their Jeeps however makes them happy though. Until someone else is paying your note, you get to decide what you do with your own JT. That capability is what makes the Jeep thing so cool.

I do what I consider “wheeling”, but you probably don’t consider it “wheeling” ?

I will wheel it at some point when I find the right group of people and a trail I'm comfortable with, I look forward to it actually. And eventually when my CJ-7 stops breaking I'll take that for more technical offroading/wheeling.

I bought mine so I could have a small truck that I could take the doors and top off and run around in. My toy is my 96 xj

Yes. A few of our adventures...





Anyone who wheels a JT knows that is its best asset. Its a Piss poor daily driver, as well as a fuel hog, but on the trails, its nothing but smiles. I hope to run into you on the trails soon. And I'll watch your channel, hell yeah. Just got back from Moab. Got a chance to do 4 trails this year, 3 last but I did 7 trails this year altogether. I still need to do the Rubicon and the Tillamook trails.
Elephant hill in Canyonlands was a super cool area. Another JT owner caught some video of me on Hells Gate;

Wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round......... technically wheels...they spin....so is that wheeling or turning or just spinning?
