I don't really know how much of a "build" thread this will be. More like tracking my journey with the club and my rig for my own recall.
Summer of 2014, before my junior year I found out that your lovely tax dollars would be paying for the rest of my school so I convinced the parents to buy me a new car.
Purchase August 13th 2014
2008 Jeep Wrangler Sport 2dr
2-2.5" lift, 33" Terra Grappler's, 2 shitty broken Light Force lights, hard top.

During my first semester in the club I still had a crazy girlfriend who sucked my soul out and held me back from really making friends and wheelin. So the most wheeling I did was Mountain Lake and Brush Mountain.

I came back Spring 2015 ready to go! I ripped off those horrid plastic running boards and got me a set of ACE Engineering Sliders and Bilstein 5100's all around.
On my first Mountain Lake snow run I somehow got stuck all the way in the back, without a CB. Needless to say, I got stuck and left behind for quite a while, I thought I was going to freeze to death in the middle of nowhere.

After that shit show I got my CB installed and was ready for my first trip to Windrock in Tennessee. Didn't have any of my own camping gear, just slept in my hammock in my Jeep If you know me, then you know how that turned out. And half the reason my tub is carpetless.

First trip was a huge success and I was hooked! I've spent way to much money since.

Summer 2015 did not bring many changes, I had a full time job for the first time, bought a gun, went to lots of concerts, and added a few cosmetic things to the Jeep.
I removed the Light Force Lights that leaked and were no longer useful, I added two LED Pods on the dash, Rubi Rails to pair with my sliders, and a Trektop NX.

October 2015 we went to Rausch Creek and I finally got to find the limits of my rig and what all the big boys could do. I swore that I would be able to keep up and for the most part I survived. Wong on the other hand had a rough trip.

It is currently less than a year later from that trip and my oh my has this past year seen changes. This is the point where the money really starts to disappear.

I didn't know you got left behind on that snowrun.
I didn't know whether to be aggravated with you for wheeling so recklessly or impressed at what you were making it up at Windrock and Rausch
1969 Cadillac Deville 7.7 Big Block
1978 Ford F-150 6.4 FE
1993 Ford Bronco 5.8 Windsor
1994 Ford F-250 7.3 Powerstroke
2016 Ford F-250 6.7 Powerstroke
so I convinced the parents to buy me a new car.
