So I bought a Wrangler…
I’m just a regular guy who finally pulled the trigger on getting a Jeep when my old vehicle started giving out — and with midlife around the corner, it felt like the right time to add a little more freedom and fun to everyday life. Now my wife, kids, and even the dog love piling in and heading out to explore Michigan, whether it’s a quick drive with the top off or a weekend looking for new views and local eats.
This site is just me sharing the ride. No expert advice here — just real experiences, products that added value, trip ideas, things I wish I’d known sooner, and spots worth stopping for. If you’re into fresh air, good roads, and practical Jeep stuff that works, you’re in the right place.
The Journey
Join me as I share stories from the road — from scenic drives around Michigan and family food stops to everyday lessons learned behind the wheel of our 2021 Wrangler JL Rubicon. This blog is all about the journey: what we see, where we eat, the gear that helps, and the moments that make Jeep life worth it.
