They are a blank canvas for us to work on. You can do nothing additional, and it’s a pretty damn fun beast. You can make it into whatever you want from there… Only limits are imagination and cubic dollars.

The thing about the people who own and drive jeeps is that most seem to make theirs unique to them. At some point the 392 is just an engine option that we splurge on. Maybe the Moab will be the point where it starts to go that way. I won’t be upset about that, but I haven’t picked mine up yet and I have “gifts” for my Jeep at the house waiting on it to be home.

I’m always looking and trying to tell what lift they used, which shocks those are, how good the tires look with that offset or wheel. I don’t know who else does that.

Exactly what drove me to this decision. The MOAB is a blank canvas for me to finish as I see fit, or enjoy as is.

Anyone crazy enough to drop 75 large to start on one of these has to be slightly nuts; I just want to make sure whatever additions I make - are best in class, don’t rust, and keep working.
