As stated in another post, I scored a new 2024 Rubicon getting a 22K discount. It's my 39th Jeep since 1972 and my 7th overland build since 2006. They day I signed the papers, I started ordering parts and within 2 weeks had my side of the garage filled.

The plan is to have it ready for the 3rd Arctic Jeep Expedition which will start in Montana on July 1st and end in Vancouver, Washington on August 15th crossing the Arctic Circle 4 times with about 2400 miles of dirt.

Here is it is bone stock from the dealers Ad online.

I'll add more posts showing progress over the next 30 days prior to my departure for the Overland Expo PNW as we will be working and adding to it weekly as more parts are expected to arrive up until June 15th or so.

Well I’m sorry you have been in and out of the hospital. Hopefully you are on the mend.
Your rig is looking pretty sharp. Hopefully you’ll be using it sooner rather than later.
