    Hey Everyone!

    My name's Ace. As the title says, just got my first Jeep a few days ago. I'm really excited to get to know everything I can about it. My fiancee and I love going camping and being outdoors so the Renny will fit in perfectly with out lifestyle. We're both west coasters now living in DC and I feel like the Renny is a perfect compromise of city driving with the ability to hit the trails.

    We bought a brand new 2016 Trailhawk in Anvil. We actually call our Renny - The Anvil (creative, i know haha)

    I'm not yet familiar with all the different things people do to their Jeeps so I'm gonna spend a lot of time doing research. However, as I said, my fiancee and I love going camping so the first thing we're going to do is add Yakima crossbars and get a Tepui roof tent.

    Next I'll probably look into improving the acceleration response, it can seem sluggish at times.

    If anyone has an recommendations for things to do, or sites to check please let me know!

    I look forward to getting to know everyone on here, it seems like a really cool community.

    You'll love it in DC traffic too. You will be able to fit in parking spaces that others have to pass by!

    Hey congrats and enjoy your new Renegade!! You will have to show us pics if you guys decide to get the Tepui roof tent. I've been looking at those myself.
