Thanks for all the pics! I was at the show on Tuesday and Wednesday and saw some, but not all, of those on display in various locations. Hope you have a good experience with yours. They sure look like neat rigs. I did snag a few copies of OJ at the back of Scott's rig in the Overland Experience area outside West Hall.

I miss SEMA, it's been 5 years since I was there last. What I see with Ineos vehicles is what I love and hate at the same time about SEMA. It's great to see products that are innovative and add value to the vehicle and the experience of owning that vehicle. SEMA can also bring out the crap you don't need. It makes me wonder how I ever did years of exploring in my Land Rover Disco 1 with only ARB lockers, LT235/85r16 tires, and an OME lift. I did spring for a roof rack to throw all the light stuff on that was taking up space inside. That being said I'm going to be buying a Trialmaster next year if my back surgery goes the way I hope (fingers crossed). I've been to the dealer several times and driven one, just can't decide on the color. I only require 2 options, heated seats, and a hitch. I might remove the rear seat which I'll never use. I would be open to small lift if I feel it's required, but would stick with steel wheels and stock tires.

The Ineos dealer delivered my new Grenadier to the house yesterday. It' a Trialmaster; it does have a rear receiver and heated seats, as well as the dual battery option, inverter, and a few other accessories useful for overlanding, like the exterior utility belt, high-load auxiliary switch panel. I've already removed the snorkel and the rear ladder; I don't like or need the snorkel and I've got a better way to access the roof rack than the ladder. Here is it parked next to my LJ...

Deplorable
Every new truck is out of price range. Not the ability to spend the amount just the recognition of the insanity.

The only Jeep I plan to get rid of is the JKU; the LJ and pickup are staying. And I'll still be doing designs for the Jeeps, as well as testing various things from other companies. For example, Auxbeam just sent me some new switch panels to test and review - my Grenadier has plenty of extra circuits and switches for accessories so a switch panel isn't likely to be needed in that vehicle so I'll test these panels with the Jeeps in mind and I'll post about it in the Jeep section.
BTW if you're not familiar with the Grenadier, here's why I don't need switch panels like the Auxbeam in it.. the eight switches in the two rows at the top of the overhead panel are an option my Grenadier has; they're accessory circuits, including a 500-amp circuit for a winch.
