Answer to the first question - is the Jeep good enough 'basically' off the dealers floor............
- YES!!!
I caught the jeep bug when I drove one for a mate, who was writting an article, on tracks 4wdVic accredited course would use for the 'High Country or Prof + course' - it didnt miss a beat - was a Rubi but lockers etc were not used - except for possing factor...
I own a 2dr Rubi - it has the mopar lift but still std tyres and I used that to Set and Q/A sections of a 4wd competition down around Aberfeldy and some of those tracks are 'interesting' - especially when your competing as the red mist can drift down
By the sounds of it, you have some experience at least and your setting up the car nicely...
Join a club ---- MJOC or any other (you don't need to own certain vehicle to join other clubs), get the Driver Training - I know who I'd head to for that
and then get out and enjoy -
(puts on flame proof suit and runs.....)
One day I may Red Wine and Cheese by joining MJOC but I'll stay where I am - content with my lattes & jigsaws........
