2018 JLU WRANGLER SPORT

HOW DID YOU FIRST GET INTO JEEPS?

When I was little I had a pink Barbie Jeep that I played with all the time. I always felt so cool being the only one who had one. Fast forward 30+ years, 3 kids later, I was driving a minivan and not feeling cool. My husband surprised me with Trail Haunter for my 30th birthday and I haven’t looked back!

WHAT MADE YOU CHOOSE THE COLOR OF YOUR JEEP?

Halloween is my favorite Holiday so the Punk’n Orange was a no-brainer!

HAVE YOU DONE ANY UPGRADES? AND IF SO, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

Yes! We have done all kinds of upgrades! The biggest one being a 4.5” lift, with upgraded suspension. We installed a hood louver, light bar, new bumpers, quick-release sway bar disconnects, new adjustable track bar, custom paint etc!

 

WHAT IS THE CRAZIEST PLACE YOU HAVE TAKEN YOUR JEEP?

Moab Utah, specifically the Steel Bender Trail… specifically the “dragons tail” obstacle. I don’t get scared that often on the trail but that one had my heart racing! We also had the opportunity to drive on the Famous Salt Flats in Utah, which was an amazing experience!

We have been all over Utah but we’d love to make it down to Sand Hollow! We’d also love to make it to SEMA someday!

WHAT IS THE NEXT UPGRADE THAT YOU WANT FOR YOUR JEEP?

How much can I type? Haha, We’ve been doing some serious looking into getting new axels and bead locks, those are the biggest. And of course little things here and there.

DO YOU DO THE UPGRADES OR DO YOU TAKE IT TO A SHOP? IF SO WHICH SHOP?

IF YOU CAN RECOMMEND ONE THING FOR JEEPERS, WHAT WOULD IT BE?

Enjoy the drive! Don’t be scared to try new trails and obstacles, your Jeep is a lot bigger and more capable than you think. You won’t know unless you try!

WHAT MADE YOU START YOUR JEEP INSTA PAGE?

When I first got Trail Haunter I really wanted to connect with other Jeepers, Instagram was the perfect place to find events and meet new people!

ARE YOU ATTENDING ANY JEEP MEET-UPS THAT PEOPLE CAN COME CHECK OUT YOUR JEEP?

We attend a lot of pop-up meet-ups, usually only planned a month or so in advance. We don’t have any upcoming meet-ups on the calendar as of now, but we are going to Trail Hero in October and we’d love to meet anyone who is going!
