Hi all, Brandon here.
About me
I'm a former Marine and long time computer/network guy. I live in Chula Vista with my wife, dog, and depending on the day, up to 3 boys. I enjoy exploring, camping, and just being outside. If you meet me, you'll likely hear me say "I hate rock crawling." But if you see me actually in the rocks, I'll probably be grinning like an idiot. Guess that makes me a little complicated, or maybe just confused. ;)
About my Jeep
I drive a stock 05 TJ. Plans for it include clearance and protection mods and a few durability changes. I'll also be working on adding storage - either with an overhead rack or (more likely) a good trailer. It is and will probably always be a daily driver.
Looking forward to seeing you guys out there.

Thanks all.
re: 50 eggs - See Cool Hand Luke.
re: limitations - I don't think of it as limited. I love my Jeep because it is flexible enough to be anything I need it to be at the time. i.e. get me to work every day, hold 3 kids and the wife, go offroad, worship the sun, get groceries, re-live a desert crossing that folks did with horses and wagons, etc...
To me, it seems like the more folks adapt their Jeeps to hard trails, the less they are useable for other situations.
Just my 2 pennies worth.
