Hello from Northern VA (392 Rubicon to Grenadier Fieldmaster)

[docskippy]

G'Morning from Virginia.

After 6 Jeep Wranglers to include a recent #392 Hemi-powered Rubicon and several Land Rover Defenders, I saw and fell in love with the Grenadier Fieldmaster while at a local gas station recently.

Obsession to aquire was pushed into overdrive and finally found one in my area (though the drive to get to my nearest dealer is a full day there and back debacle).

2024 Fieldmaster LWB (Black). Currently, @TangoMike for Vinyl PPF roof White (for a contrasting look), tinted windows, ceramic coat/paint correction, and some accouterments for headlights/taillights and "A" lettering highlights for the rear and hood.

So far, the only issue is determining how to adjust the audio (bass, treble, etc).

Looking forward to learning more about this one-of-a-kind machine and continuing to make everyone who sees one - crane their necks and wonder:
THEM: "Is it a "G" or a Defender?"
ME: "Neither. It's the illegitimate love child of the two!"

Cheers,
Skipper

Welcome to the forum!

For setting the bass/treble, reference this thread.

Your closest dealer should only be about 30-45ish minutes away @ MileOne Ineos in Silver Spring (assuming you're in "NoVA" and not just "Northern VA").

If you're free on Monday evening, we'll be having our monthly GTG in Vienna, here's the thread with info

Thanks!

I'm jammed Monday - but 100% into future/monthly link ups for a few pints and chatter!

MileOne was where I went. Sadly between 66; 495; 270; 370; and back to 95 - its easily a 2 hour one way drive. PITA!

Hoping to get my ride back from detail shoppe by mid-next week. Looking forward to it.

TY SO MUCH for sending the audio instructions! The bass was driving me crazy!

Cheers,
Skip

Totally understand; I couldn't really decide between the 2 vehicles so I got both, one for the rocks and going fast, the other for camping / overlanding with the family and looking super cool getting groceries.

LOL its like we share the same garage. My wife is always telling me to sell the Z06 b/c I never drive it.

I need a smaller house and a bigger garage to satisfy my habits!
