I've got a 2dr Wrangler. Just got it about 3 months ago so other than feeling it out, I haven't made any upgrades to it yet. Want to add some new bumpers, a 2.5" lift and bigger tires as well as side steps for those shorter people. Other updates are adding some fuel cans and a mount but haven't decided on what kind I want to go with, or if I want to go with a swing away rear tire carrier/ fuel can carrier combo when I upgrade the rear bumper. Its like playing legos with a car, almost like the versatility of an AR, IMO.
Got rid of the 2000 Grand Cherokee that I had lifted 4in. Needed something much better on fuel and room. Picked up a 2003 GMC Yukon XL with 150,000 miles. Much better vehicle.

I decided on a 2015 Subaru Outback, because I am trying to balance good fuel efficiency and comfortable commuting with large cargo space and mild off-road/bad weather capability. I've lifted it so it has approximately 10" of ground clearance, and replaced the rear springs with HD ones that allow me to carry about 800lbs of gear in back without losing ground clearance. Also added some legit All Terrain tires. These boxer engines are stupid reliable and it gets about 29 hwy. Only hangups I might have with it are water fording and having to push disabled vehicles out of the way, following a disaster. It wouldn't be well suited for those jobs.
Just picked up an 06 Wrangler rubicon. Short on space but should do well to get out of town if needed.
