Hi, my name is Chris, I am from the cape and just submitted application to join, currently on waiting list. Bought a 2011 JK Rubicon used a few years back and have been working on it since. It is my first jeep and I have minimal offroad experience, except for racing 250s when i was younger, I have mechanical knowledge, been around cars since i was young and drove a tow truck for about 12 years so i have experience around winching and using snatch blocks etc. Jeep has a Terraflex 3inch lift on it with 35s. Has various other addons and working on skid plates and a winch next. I am super happy I got a jeep, and as they are an on-going project/money pit, its well worth it IMO! I hope to be a member soon, get out there and wheel, and meet some new friends! :)

Hey Chris, welcome to the forum! I’m also on the waitlist. I hear they are expecting to open invites the beginning of the year. Besides that, there is a little activity on the site. Good place to ask questions.

Hey Chris. Welcome to the forum . Our membership is full and management is working on that . The run we had for list people was great . Had great weather and met some new people. It wasnt an exceptionally a technical area , but had enough to entertain the group. I wrote a report on the day under "Events" and only one or two responses . So sad people join , try it , dont like it , and yet they dont cancel the membership and hold someone else up from joining . See ya at the spring meeting. Keep an eye on the forum . FYI checking the site once a week isnt gonna get you ahead . FjR68
