Didn't see a "new member intro" forums so I figured this would be the best place to post...

Not new to forums by any means, so dont worry, you shouldn't have to yell at me to "search".

This is my 3rd jeep, previously had a Wrangler and a Cherokee....

Just picked up this gem yesterday... 2007 Limited Edition, it was a 3 year lease turn in with only 21,400 miles :)

Congrats and welcome. Here is the thread for new intros in case you still want it. http://www.jeepcommander.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8
Man, that Jeep is pretty. I'd hate to be the one to have to keep it clean. :orangehat:

Welcome Matt, I moved your post to the "Garage" section.

Awesome. Thanks guys.

And keeping it clean won't be too bad... thats why i like white vehicles, they always look clean. Should also be a lot easier to keep clean than my crew cab sierra! :icon_lol:

clean? who washed there JEEP? That thing will look sweet covered in mud!!

clean? who washed there JEEP? That thing will look sweet covered in mud!!

I agree!

Got any shots of yours muddy? Clicked your two links but the thread has all clean pics and the youtube video is someone else...

Haha, that was funny. I change my mud like I change my oil.

I wish man it's been raining crazy for weeks here. Monday was the first time I washed mine in about a 2 months and thats because we camped at the beach and the film you get from the ocean is nasty. check these links out I was trying to get dirty but rain again washed my badges I mean mud off.

Here is a link to the thread from our trip last month has pics and vids in it.

Awesome pics/vids.

Now I really miss offroading! I used to go all the time but have been out of the game for the past few years.

Planning on building another trail rig in the near future... never even considered lifting/wheeling the commander; i have a feeling you guys are going to be a bad influence! :eek3:

The "real" plan is to get a 4-door wrangler once our kids get a bit older, then turn that into our weekend warrior/trail riding vehicle.

Just realized i never updated my garage thread with the lift/wheels/tires.

Specs:

2" RC Kit
245/70/17 General Grabber AT2
17x8 +18mm offset XD Spy's

I love those wheels. My buddy has a set of those in 18's on his 05 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 4 inch BDS lift.

I like them even better without the center caps. I took them off for winter and think they look better without the chrome plated plastic caps.

I just need to spray my hubs black the next time I do a rotation.

Nothing special... just some shots I snapped today before riding.

Nice Fisher... I just baught a 2011 Specialized Hardrock Sport Disc 29er and love it. I'm way out of trail shape but, at least my riding ability is still there. Getting back to MTBing after a 10 year absence from the sport.

Thanks man. Gotta love the 29ers :)

Bikes are as bad as trucks..... I've probably spent more money modding my bike than I have on the commander so far! :lol: I think my bike wheels were the same price as my XD's.

Yeah, I hear ya. When I baught my bike, the owner had his Specialized full suspension carbon bike for sale......$10,000 <----WTF??:bowdown:

For me to spend $10k on a bike, it has to have one of two things..... either:
A) an 1800cc engine
Or
B) come with a supermodel that'll give me a full body massage after each ride.

I think the engine would be a safer choice :)

I miss my bike. :( 2006 VTX1800 F2

will have another someday!!

LMCAO!!! For $10,000, she better come with an 1800cc engine.

Found a couple of pics of my bike, thought I would share.......
