Nice! Love the blacked out look! I have a few Amazon recommendations that may help:

- If you’re looking to upgrade your Jeep Wrangler’s radio for Bluetooth connectivity, consider the AWESAFE Jeep Carplay Radio. This adds carplay or andriod auto and the cost is pretty good. I’ve put these in two of my Jeeps and (DIY Install) have been pleased with the performance. I’m not an audiophile so the output doesn’t matter as much to me:

- For durable rubber floor mats specific to your Jeep Wrangler JK, check out the Kiwi Master Floor Mats

- To keep the stock mirrors when you take the door off - check out this mirror relocation kit:

Oh Shit handles: I have had two jeeps now and this is one of the first things I add. The install is easy and the placement of the bar is in just the right place. I prefer these over the ones that attach to the door frame and hang down.

niice - and you’ve got the relocation kit for the side views, that’s one of my favorite mods. Makes is easier to take the doors off and go. I think these few mods would fit your jeep nicely:

Handlebars Amazon Affiliate Link Tucked up out of the way yet still useful.

JK- Hood Latches Amazon Affiliate Link Prevent hood flutter on the highway - those rubber straps wear out over time.

Gas Cap Cover Amazon Affiliate Link Jeep left the gas cap accessible by design, as a call back to the days when soliders needed to refeul quickly. This provides a way to protect the cap like more modern vehicles. It also has option for locking vs pseudo locking

AWESAFE Radio Amazon Affiliate Link If you want to add carplay without breaking the bank, these fit really well in the JK console. In terms of good audio quality there are better options, but this does seem to push sound a little better than the stock option. mostly plug and play and if you don’t have a backup cam its easy to add.

I’ve tried the door hole ones and they were too flimsy - I eventually got an stock to A frame relocation kit: Amazon Affiliate Link This might fit with your bar setup too. I much prefer the stock mirrors and this lets you use them doors on or off.

I’m running these with the amber turn signal baked in my 2007 JK - it really upgraded the front end without breaking the bank. One thing with any of these is to calibrate them so you don’t blind people on the road.

I had this in my 07 jk and now freshly installed in my 2015 JKU - it looks seamless in the 07 and looks good in the 15’, thought the fit is not as good as the 07. The one I used is by AWESAFE: Amazon Affiliate Link so it looks like the same unit but different company.

I have a vendetta against the EGO snow shovel attachment - its way too heavy and it makes a crappy chore even crappier. I would only recommend it if it was for a small area like a deck or small sidewalk. I upgraded to the EGO 2 stage and not looking back :) https://www.jconnector.io/posts/egosnowblower/

I’ve been happy with EGO so far this winter, but I try to add chains to it to help with the slope. The EGo doesnt slow itself down going down hill but so far Ive learned to let off the ‘gas’ and let gravity do its thang.

Reddit Comment on r/StLouis

Like someone else said for ice, salt will be needed to help it melt. but you want to clear the snow first so it doesn’t create a worse mess. (snow melts onto the ice and compounds the problem - we want dry ass pavements) I recently got an electric ego snowblower, but I’m in minnesota so I needed a two stage - my current setup is on my blog :

Note - the handheld shovel blowers I have a vendetta against, I would never recommend those unless you have a small deck or sidewalk. They are waaaay too heavy and for older folks I think end up being more hurtful than helpful.

I tried the EGO snow shovel and found that it was horrible. Waaay to heavy.

I just got an EGO and it works great for my needs. My driveway is not huge but it is hilly, I need something to deal with plow ridge as well, here is my loadout: https://www.jconnector.io/posts/egosnowblower/

probably for your driveway, you’d need bigger batteries to get the job done. I listed the 7.5ah ones here but they make higher capacity ones better suited for larger jobs. The battery cost can be quite high still on these, but I certainly love not messing with gas on snowy says anymore.

Reddit Comment on r/Snowblowers

electric is probably out - you;d have to have stock of batteries ready to go - at any time.
I just got an EGO (blog link ) and two 7.5 ah batteries last about 25% to get my driveway done. You’d need like 8 batteries at least - which is about $2400 + snow blower $849 + two chargers $60 = $3309~ It is nice to not have gas in the equation but not sure the commercial viability. :)

Reddit Comment on r/Snowblowers

Agree - go with two stage - and maybe consider an electric? don’t have to deal with gas and are a bit lighter than gas. The batteries is where is gets spendy but I think it’s worth it not to have deal with gas:

I went with the EGO over the Ryobi - I tried an electric shovel and it was a bad experience for me trying to do the whole driveway. It might be ok for a small sidewalk or a deck, but overall was too heavy and just didn’t work like I wanted.

This is my current loadout and its been working great. The suck is this initial investment so this stuff better last a long time lol

My blower went out last winter, so this year I went with the EGO electric. So far it has performed awesome and I don’t have worry about gas anymore. It will likely go over $1000 though, but its been so worth it for me.

I posted my load out on my blog: https://www.jconnector.io/posts/egosnowblower/

I did try the electric snow shovel, but it is way to heavy and definitly not the right tool for snowy winters. Maybe if you have deck you wanna keep clear so you can grill.

Dirty bean water goes into the cup. Frothiness is from the vertuo pod spinning really fast. No particular reason it needed to spin like it does but it’s patent that’s different than a kcup. Also the caffeine content is packed so be careful with milligram count per pod.

I like this jade one

And my favorite for daily cup is the alto ambrato, then the meloziatro decaf for the rest if the day if I want more coffee.

Reddit Comment on r/lawnmowers

I don’t mind mowing, but I hate snow removal. I used gas snowblowers for years and one year I spilled bad trying to fill up. The gas can nozzle broke off, I dropped the can, it splashed every where, ruined my clothes etc. The next year I went with electric and not looking back - here is my loadout: https://www.jconnector.io/posts/egosnowblower/ I didnt want to drop the $$$ but having the right toolset for me makes a huge difference when I head out and its 0 degress etc.

I would say for your use case - If you are handy and don’t mind swapping out a mowing deck for a snowblower attachment seasonally, that might make the most sense. A cart for the leaves / bagger, mulching blades vs cutting blades - I would think something in the john deere line would make a lot of sense. for 8k you might could have a dedicated lawn mower snow blower and a separate lawn mower for mowing - sure it’s two machines but if you need to minimize time between tasks that could be an interesting setup. You could also consider an ATV and add a snow plow / blower to it. add a little more fun to the job and have more power.

WELCOME! LOOKS NIOCE. IMO 2 wheel drive jeep still does really well in the snow. (minnesota here) If you have a hilly drive way or its fresh mix of ice snow 4WD is nice and grippy, though you may find it hard to turn into parking spots / turning is so grippy. Definitely read the manual and take it to a parking lot to practice changing in 4WD High and low :P Looks like you have a newer JL so it has alot of the stuff most JKs have to add.

oh and get cha some ducks :)
