Traveler II
Welcome! I'm also in the Bay Area. I'm pushing hard to get my rig ready by summer.Hello all!
I'm Emilio. My Jeep is Lucky. A 2004 TJ.
About Lucky:
I've had Lucky since 2007 and put well over 150K miles on it. At 197xxx right now. I just replaced the engine about 5k miles ago. Lucky has a 3.5" short-arm lift kit running 31's (for now), stock 3.07 gearing, 5 speed manual, with a LSD in the rear. Warn 8000lb winch up front with a brush guard and HID aux driving lights. Rock rails and a lot of added armor underneath. Ready for what comes it's way. CB and Ham Radio installed.
About me:
I'm 31, originally from New Hampshire, but have lived in Florida, and now currently in the Bay Area of California. I have a great deal of off-roading experience, wheelin in off-road parks and going on jeep trail rides with clubs, but newish to overlanding. I love just getting out there to enjoy the views and camping with fresh air. I'm looking forward to meeting some of you in person and making great memories. My call sign is KC1GML. Pictures to come.
Edit: I'll be attending Overland Expo West this year. Hope to see some of you there!
