    On a more serious note, You need to plan to gear based on where, when and what your plans are.
    If you are doing a weekend trip to Jeepskool vs a week in the Moab your gear choices will be different.
    There will not be a universally correct repsonse.

    Since I spend less time than many off road, my everyday carry consists of water, blankets, a change
    of clothes, and a smattering of tools, matches, and some kindling.

    When I used to travel all the time, I got caught a couple times without proper clothing. After seeing people
    stuck for days, I always carry the items above.

    I am in the middle of a six thousand mile trip and I figured the best thing to take along so that I would have all my tools is this.

    I push it all around the country in front of my Commander.

    4.7 Flex Fuel, Rocky Road 2.5" Lift on front, 4 inch Superlift coils on rear, Spidertrax 1.5" Spacers, Bridgestone 265/70/17

    Did anyone else read the fine print in the brochure and get a $500 rebate for being a Veteran?

    I am with you there Sal. Expedition is what i am interested in.

    I used to live in a gated community (not a prison) and we had propane
    and electic...and lots of trees. We had to be prepared for power outages so
    we had alternate fuels, foods, stored water and planned to be able to live that way
    for 10 days. When we came out of the woods, I had a different mindset
    than my neighbors. I was prepared. I like to stay that way.

    I guess we're off topic, but there ya go.

    You can wheel the snot of these jeeps that's for sure I've done it. But I think expedition is where the XK really shines and comes into it's own. It's big engines huge cargo area and awesome drive systems and good reliability with its extreme weight carrying rating make it a perfect candidate for going expedition.
