Hello,
You can call me Miki. I am new to the Gladiator world, though not new to the Jeep world. I had an '05 Wrangler Rubicon Sahara edition from '05-'09, which I loved but started commuting and traded ole Dirt Buggy for the Momzduh (2010 MazdaSpeed3) with better gas mileage. I wanted to get another Jeep within a year or 2, but here it is, 14 years later when I finally get another Jeep. I wanted the off road capabilities, the truck bed, and the convertible top, so the Gladiator was the way to go, plus I needed the towing capacity, which Wranglers don't have quite as much, even with the Max tow package.
I am looking forward to going off road soon, just don't know where to go and what to do once I get there.
. I took the Dirt Buggy through the mud on some (shhhhhh!) illegal "trails" around my hometown, and a friend had a field full of weeds he used to let me tear up for him, but that's all.
So, I finally I got a Gladiator. She's a 2020 Rubicon stock, 33" tires, and I've named her Trixee. I was researching Roman Gladiator history looking for a name, when I found there were females called Gladiatrix. (hence the name Trixee).
Does anyone know where there are some easier/beginner trails in the mid cal/nor cal area, say within 2 hours of San Fran? I live fairly close to Carnegie SVRA park, and I looked up Prairie City SVRA, which is 1 1/2-2 hours away for me. Any suggestions? I looked at the website for Carnegie, but it looks like their trails are only for motocross. They do have a "play area" for off road vehicles which I would like to go try, and hopefully not get myself into trouble.
I am also looking forward to learning how to work on my Trixee, I know how to change brake pads, and take rotors off to have them turned, but that's about it.
I hope to hear from y'all, nice to "meet" you.
Ps, any other ladies here?
