picked up a brand new white '15 trail hawk the other night. new to renegades but not jeeps or off roading. i have a '88 comanche project/weekend cruiser in the drive way also. my last jeep was a highly mod'd '06 rubi lj. i did/do alot of wheeling in gwnf, rausch creek, and crozet(RIP). doubt ill be doing any real off roading in the renegade. its a dd and mountain bike hauler, should get me to and from work and to any trailhead and bike park. no fancy cool pictures yet. and we have all know exactly what they look like
worst and best thing i have ever done. loved that rig! stupid fun to drive and wheel. got a million compliments and thumbs up. also only got 12 mpg and kinda sucked to drive everyday.
Your white trail hawk would be fine in most of GWNF I took mine out there with less than 2000 miles on it bone stock had a blast.
good to know. most of the mountain bike trails in the valley are in that area. i also wanna do a overnight trip up flagpole with the wife before it gets cold again.
You should be fine Like I said I even had stock tires and made it up peters mill with no issues and no spotter, clearance had me a little nervous going up the last rocky parts but it handled them like a champ. I was thinking of heading back out to Buzzard rock before winter and maybe doing a trail or two on the way home.
rausch is my happy place. less then 1 mph off camber or near vertical i where i love to be in a jeep if you ever want a "tour" of gwnf let me know. i used to lead a new to jeeping run for a local jeep club and alot of other general trail rides out there. i know all the fun legal spots for lil rigs like the renegade.
