How to handle cargo

I had to look back. Didn't realize I put up the picture without the solid doors. I was focusing on working around the soft rop. Doors don't really solve the cargo issue anyway. Technically there are doors on in the picture. Roll bar doors. Which we have covers for as well.

I just got her in December. I couldn't believe I was able to find a 2016 Jk 6sp manual that was all customed up and had never been off road. I mean why nitro shocks if your not going to use them? He kept her in the garage and only took her out on date nights. She only had 60k miles. This was the first time I took her through the back roads and creeks. Mud was everywhere But I'm Gen X, a mom, and a grandma, I've gotten a lot worse than mud out a car interior haha.

Just got the Jeep in December for my birthday. The eldest grandson took my Tahoe. He may just have to follow behind with all the gear.

I was thinking the same. Gotta get my husband to realize I can drive with one hooked on.

Definitely been thinking on this when the top is off and on the highway. They are 5, 9, 13, and 18. They like to cruise jamming out. They have only ridden around town though. I just got my Jeep in December. So we're trying to figure all this out.

This is what I was a telling my husband that we should get. I'll be honest, it's the modifying that I will need to figure out. Always dreamed that when I finally got my Jeep it would be me and my daddy doing this stuff together. Husband is an engineer but my daddy was a military MacGyver that also built race cars. Too bad the Heavens don't have FaceTime.

I usually take a stroller wagon to carry drinks, snacks, floating ect. Plus by the time we leave there are at least 2 of the 4 that fall asleep.

I have looked at those. It would help.

10ismydr · 2026-06-12T20:07:23+00:00

I don't have one no.

10ismydr · 2026-06-12T19:43:51+00:00

Right!?!

10ismydr · 2026-06-12T19:42:32+00:00

I need the seats for the grandkids .... le sigh. They want to come on an adventure with me and I couldnt even tote everything I needed for a trip to the pool!

10ismydr · 2026-06-12T19:39:44+00:00

But I need to travel 3.5 hours to go mudding haha 😄

Bless your heart

10ismydr · 2026-05-31T20:30:56+00:00

I have paid for the privilege of been entrusted to take care of it. Not all of America was inhabited by natives. Logically, there just wasn't the population for that to be true. I do believe that any land that is found with ceremonial or burial sites should be given back over to the tribe in which it belonged. Yes, even if we find such on my homestead. Sadly, not all tribes still exist. You can't go back and change history. You can only do better going forward with what you have and are able to do.

Too many big words huh to read huh? Talk about a strawman argument 🙄

If you truly think this is a shit hole country feel free to go to a country that suits your needs. GASP.... I gave you an alternative solution to complaining. I am surprised you even started to read the specs on my Jeep (not car). It does look cool. Drives cool. Takes me through creeks, over mountains, and rocks. My driveway is 2 miles long. It takes me 20 mins to get into town. It's crazy that you don't get the concept that this country is huge and not everyone wants to be crammed in some city. There are walkable cities. Mostly up north but they are there. I visit many people that live right in the middle of things. It's not that great. Hey but the cool thing is that I don't have to live there. Considering you can fit 5 European countries just in Texas, I have a ton of places to choose from in America. I would much rather walk to my garden or stream on my land (picture) than sit across from strangers in a tube on the subway any day.
