- For those of you who watched our last video, Where in the Hell Have We Been, it should be of no surprise to you that Cindy and I bought ourselves a brand new Jeep JL Wrangler. Of course, the question that needs to be asked, is what did we buy and why?
Come be a part of our online community at WAYALIFE.com
A BIG THANKS needs to go to Kent over at Peterson Ram Jeep in Nampa, Idaho for helping us out on another great deal. It's a hell of a drive for sure but buying through them is always super easy and always worth it.

I has hoping someone would start doing adventures in an unbuilt Jeep. That idea reaches , inspires and shows the average person what they can go do. Great job !!!!!
We're happy that we can do this and hope to share some of the things we've learned over the last 2 decades with people like you :)
Finally a 2 door story! Love it
This is a breath of fresh air. Especially when everyone is doing 4 dr and gladiator stories
LOL - glad to hear you're happy to see what we're doing. We weren't sure if anyone would care.
Yes! So cool!
I can’t wait to follow this story/build!!!! Two door all the way!!!
WOOOOOO finally a jeeper family that has a two door build! And base model at that. Showing us poor non rubicon guys what we can do with our jeeps. This jeep you got is the true form of jeeping. A blank slate. So excited to watch this.
My first jeep was a tj sport. Told my wife she'd have to bury me in it. Raised two kids out that back seat. Had to sell it for chump change. But four years later was able to order specifically for me a green manual two door sport. Only option was the a/c!. Lol keep this up man. Thanks for representing me and others like me
JKU was built for “posers” which is why they have power windows and A/C as standard. Rubicon was built for “posers” with money, it’s a status symbol. You can tell the difference of a “poser” & a REAL Jeep lover buy driving down the road. A “pos er” doesn’t wave and has a 3” spacer lift. A Jeep lover waves and installed their lift on their own with springs and not spacers.
Very happy to hear the bare bones, less is more mission statement for this project. Two big thumbs up for the manual transmission!
Thank you :)
You gotta have a manual.
It's easy to be hyped for the huge no-limit builds, but THIS is what it's about IMO. Bare bones, blank slate. Love it!
Awesome! So glad to hear you're liking this new project of ours :)
Jakob....Exactly!
I own a 2 door JL 3.6 manual, soft top! I’m so excited for what you have in store for this Jeep!
Awesome :)
Congratulations! And Happy Memorial Day to the two of you and all of your Jeeps and off-screen family members. Eddie & Cindy are THE best two Jeep sales people Jeep Corporation has ever had! Absolutely well done as always!
LOL - too funny and way too kind. Thank you.
@@wayalife Didn't intend my comment as "funny." You and Cindy are superb sales people for Jeep! Thank you both very much! And thanks also for the help and support you give to your family.
@@andymckane7271 We're truly flattered that you would say as much. Outside of engineering, I don't think Jeep even knows who we are. LOL
Literally brought to tears at the end of this video. I watched my grand parents go through the same thing and now they are gone. I can’t wait to see what comes of this build.
You Sir, I believe, are hitting the "nail on the head". Was just talking to the wife about how we have quit watching most of the channels that started out with Jeeps and trips that people like us, could actually do, and totally relate to. It seems that after they gained sponsorship and fame that leads them to believe they have to go faster, higher, farther for many reasons. While I like watching videos that go places i could never go in my slightly modified 2dr JL, We are going to love watching your adventures in the new firecracker. Appreciate how grounded you two are. Thanks.
We're so happy to hear you're looking forward to following our adventures in this new Jeep. 😎
Nice…..I love the concept & can’t wait to follow the series!
Awesome! Thank you!
Awesome! Can’t wait to see the future of the Jeep and where you take it. I’ve wheeled my 2 door JL stock for the last two years and it’s taken me to some amazing places.
That is so awesome and glad to hear.
As a 2-door JL owner myself I’m excited to see you build it!
Well, the idea is to keep this one stockish and so that we can show people how much fun you can still have with it.
@@wayalife small lift, 35"s, bumpers, and winch kinda build?
@@Crucial929 That's the idea. At most really.
I have a 2010 jk 2 door with AEV 2.5 lift with 35’s. It rides great and turns on a dime.
Gotcha, I have a JLR with 35s on AEV wheels, winch, everything else is stock. It’s so nimble on & off-road, 37s are overkill on the 2dr. Excited to see the new one in action! I’m also interested in seeing interior mods like storage space solutions.
Hands down the best Wrangler series on CZcams.
Thank you, we really do appreciate you saying as much and so happy to hear you enjoy our series 😊
Nice! Excited for you guys, going back to the roots.
Thank you :)
Had to watch this again as we bought a two door Wrangler Sport last summer. Got it in white with the 3.6 engine, auto trans and hardtop. No power windows or door locks. I have added rock rails, door sills and all terrain tires. This is our first Jeep and we love it. Thanks again for all your great videos. The are first rate. 😎
Awesome and congratulations to you 👍
Very cool, happy to see you back. 👍🏻
Thank you :)
Welcome back! Congrats! I'm hyped for what's coming!
Thank you
This is going to be fun following along!
Also love the aerial shots while heading up to Idaho!
Stellar work as always, cheers.
Thank you. We really appreciate it :)
Awesomeness I was not expecting that really cool guys. Love all you videos over the years, can’t wait to see what’s next.
Cheers
Awesome! Thank you!
LOOOOVE your message! Keep it simple and enjoy what you have!😎
Can’t wait for the adventures you post with your new Jeep👊🏼
Awesome! So happy to hear you can appreciate what we're trying to do :)
Great choice, I can’t wait for the future videos
Awesome, glad to hear it :)
Awesome, congrats guys! Can’t wait to see the build!! 🤙🏼
Thank you :)
Looks awesome. Can’t wait for your new adventures
Thank you
Niiiiice. Can’t wait to see the transformation!
Cool - won't be much but it will be enough.
We bought our first Wrangler last January and have only made some cosmetic mods to the interior and added a set of grab bars. I have the Freedom Panels off all the time and recently discovered how cool it is to ride with the doors and roof off. I am now a Jeeper for life.
Awesome!
Tremendous! Looking forward to all the videos.
Awesome, thank you!
Great edited and fun video... You have upped your game.... Keep up the adventure. Thank you for what you do.
Thank you. Happy to hear you like our work :)
Very excited for this!
Awesome!
Looking forward to see what you do to this Jeep! Adventures ahead!
We're so happy to hear it :)
this will be fun to watch. best of luck!
Thank you. Hope you enjoy the adventure to come :)
Love it, can’t wait to see the adventures you take it on.
Awesome :)
Nice can't wait to see the finished product
Well, we'll be trying to keep it as is or at least, as much as possible. Upgrades are coming for sure but they will be minimal.
Congratulations,enjoy it and I think is a right decision. Thanks Cindy and Eddie.
Thank you. This has been a project that we've been wanting to do for a long time. Jeep is an amazing off road vehicles right out of the box and we'd like to share how much fun you can have with one as is.
outstanding! cant wait to see more vids on this new rig. congrats to you both on the new purchase and project!
Thanks so much!
Your channel is why I got my Jeep. Thanks!
Awesome! 😎
Congratulations guys!!!! Can't wait to see what's next with this New Two Door please keep the videos coming. 😍
Thank you! Will try our best.
Nice to have you guys back. Looking forward to seeing what you do with your new project.
Thank you :)
So awesome, I’m excited to see this project take life.
Glad to hear it :)
Great video - finally a build that most can relate to, you don't have to build a monster Jeep to have amazing adventures! I bought JLU stock and have had nothing but great times with it.. lifted with 35's and some basic mods (winch , bumper etc.) added a soft-top because it just feels like a traditional Jeep with it. Watching this build and seeing it out on the trails is going to benefit a lot of people..
Thank you and we're glad that people like you will be able to appreciate what we're doing.
Awesome, I can't wait to see what is in store for the new jeep.
Awesome! Hope you're subscribed 😎
Looks like an awesome project is in store. 👍👍
DUDE SO HYPED FOR THE TWO DOOR
So glad to hear it 😎
Spoiler!
Can't wait to see this build! This video is speaking to a lot of us out here 🤙🏽
We're so happy to hear it. 😎
I have been watching your channel for quite a few years now, drooling over the upgrades you have made that I can't afford. I just traded in my JK for a JL Sport also with a manual, but mine has a soft top. I am so excited to see the modifications you make to yours. I am super excited to follow along and hopefully you will show some mods I can make as well.
Awesome! Glad to hear you're liking what we're doing with this :)
Cant wait for the next episode!
Hoping to get something out by Sunday so check back soon 😎
Can't wait to see where this goes!
Awesome! Glad to hear it :)
I love the 2 door! 🙌 😁 I've been following you two for over a decade now, drooling the whole time... haha! But this is right up my alley! From my YJ Sahara, my TJR, to my JKR Recon 2dr. I can't wait for you to drive and show what a simple 2dr can do!
Awesome! So glad we can do this for people like you. 👍
Congrats on the new member of the family! It's going to be fun to see where you take it, and where it takes you guys!
Thanks and hope you enjoy the ride :)
Going to love this series
Awesome!
When I woke up this morning and saw Wayalife video, it was like YAY! First thing I watched this morning! Hope all is as well as can be in the homestead. Nice purchase! I've been thinking of doing the same Have fun with it! Stay safe!
LOL - thank you 😎
Can't wait to see where this takes us!!!
Awesome :)
I always enjoy watching your videos. You do a great job putting them together. Looking forward to seeing this jeep in action.
Thank you. We're glad to hear you enjoy our videos.
aswome!!!!excited for the new build!!!!
Thank you :)
What a surprise! Can't wait to see where you take us with it!
Awesome! Hope you enjoy the ride :)
Something about your videos bring so much nostalgia ❤I love it so vibrant and informational 😊
We're truly happy to hear you enjoy our videos and find them to be informational. 😎
My first car as an 86 CRX Si. Great little cars. Can’t wait to see what you do with the 2 door!
Love it!! Congrats guys! Can’t wait to see what type of mods you do! Give me some ideas for my 4 door
Thanks Coz! Glad you like it 😎
Very nice Can’t wait to see how this build comes along. I love your garage. Great video. You guys are really great at producing videos. Keep them up
Thank you. We're so glad you enjoy our videos :)
I was turned onto Jeeps when I met my wife. She had a 98 TJ and I always kept my eyes open. She ended up upgrading to a 2018 JL and I now I have my own '22 JL. :) Safe to say we are a Jeep family now. I love your filmmaking style, it's beautiful. I'm so glad this channel found me, keep up the awesome work!!!
That is awesome and congratulations on now owing your own Jeep! We're truly humbled that you enjoy our videos too 😎
As a built 2 door manual JK loving owner I'm stoked for this. I don't wheel my rig hard, we overland in it and just go off the beaten path. I'm more excited for this adventure than any of your others. Awesome!
Awesome! So glad to hear you're liking what we'll be doing with this project :)
Looking forward to seeing the videos with your 2door. Thanks and be safe!
Awesome :)
Fantastic Bruh....loving the new addition and thanks for the Ripley fix... made my day !
LOL - glad we were able to give you some Ripley :)
Sees WAYALIFE new video. Instantly likes it before anything shows. Haha.
Not only am I excited for this new addition, but I suddenly feel the need to get out more and road trip. You’re videos are amazingly inspiring. Thank you!
Awesome! So glad to hear it :)
I’m excited for this new series! 🔥
Glad to hear it :)
yes sir, the 2 door is so fun
Heck yeah!!! I have a 4 door JLUR, but it’s my 1st 4 door out of the 5 Wranglers ive owned. When my daughter is driving and I don’t need a 4 door anymore, I’m going back!!!
LOL - I hear ya. We're empty nesters and have multiple 4-doors so this works out great for us.
Do you know why this is the very first CZcams channel that I have saved. You got it. Jeep. Very happy to see you two back.
Thank you. That really means a lot to us. 😊
I can’t wait for this. I just bought my 2021 wrangler sport unlimited in December. I won’t lie this jeep has surprised me for not have lockers or sway bar disconnect
Very cool!
So awesome to see you rock a basic Jeep with a MANUAL!!! Can't wait for the next videos
Cindy and I grew up driving and wheeling a manual. It's what we know :)
@@wayalife It is what a Jeep should be! If it was for me, Jeeps would only come with manuals! ;) Basic, like they used to be.
Nice ready for new project video’s and road trips.
Thank you. We hope you'll enjoy our adventures to come 😎
Super excited I stumbled across your channel. Love the quality and content. But I’m super excited to follow this JL sport basic build. I’ve recently purchased a well loved JKu Sport that’s still bone stock. I’m a huge fan of stock/oem upgrades and I’m looking to do a similar mild build for our our family of 5 to get out and enjoy some light wheeling in South Carolina !! Keep up the great work and can’t wait to see what all is in store for Pippi!!!
Awesome and congratulations to you on your Jeep! Happy to hear you're liking our Pippi Project 👍
I can’t wait to see the new adventures you guys go on with this new jeep
Awesome :)
Loved the story. Awesome.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Congratulations! Looking forward to what you do to it!
Thank you!
Can't wait to see more of this! It's easy to find people online that swear that Rubicons are so awesome, but there aren't a lot of people out there showing you how to save money and still do everything you want to. Great idea!
Well, I'm not gonna try and tell you that a Rubicon isn't awesome. It comes a sway bar disconnect, a 4:1 transfer case and maybe most importantly, lockers front and rear. That being said, not everyone needs to run the same kind of trails that demand those features and even if they do, you can still do a whole lot with less. It just takes a more experienced driver and a willingness to get strapped from time to time.
Great video thank you!
Glad you liked it!
I absolutely love the concept... finally a project that will fit the budget and wallets of most people. Low cost, high fun. Smash ahead!
Awesome! Glad to hear you like what we'll be doing :)
I'm excited for the build folks. Can't wait to see what the first mods will be.
Glad to hear it :)
This is going to be great!
Thank you my friend.
Literally the same Jeep we just bought for my wife, and gonna build up! Awesome! Very excited to see where you go with this.
Very cool!
Ohhh, Man. Sorry to have missed you! Welcome to Idaho! I'm excited to see how you build it up.
Thanks! You live in a very nice state.
I have to agree with your other viewers, thanks for adding a basic 2 door to your garage. I am looking forward to progress you have in store for this project. Thanks, keep the great videos coming.
Awesome, thank you 😎
Can’t wait to see how this baby turns out! Love it!
Glad to hear it :)
This is how you grow new community into the jeep world! The big stuff is cool but it’s not accessible for everyone...this will be a great series!
Thank you. We just want to share what we've learned over the last 2 decades with people who are new to the world of Jeeps. We hope that we can be of help :)
I think we have forgotten how capable the sport is but have a feeling we will be seeing it in action. Thanks for taking us back to the basics.
Super excited to do this :)
Loving Pippi's videos! Even though I've been a long-time Jeeper with CJs, TJs, and now a 2-door JL Sport, I've always kept them pretty stock with just a few mild upgrades. As others have stated, even the most basic bone-stock Jeep is still highly capable and always gets me where I need to go in the Southern NV back country. I believe Pippi's videos apply to the vast majority of Jeep owners, and are far more relevant than the myriad of videos about overbuilt rock crawlers and the like. Nothing against those vehicles though...there's clearly an audience and application for them, and many of those Jeeps are amazing. While I love all your videos, Pippi is what made me subscribe to your channel and I look forward to seeing more of her adventures. Great work and happy Jeepin'!
So inspirational! We currently have a JL and JT but my first car ever was a 95 YJ, manual, soft top, zip down windows. As much as I love everything on my JL Rubicon, I do miss the fun and easy times of my simple stock YJ that stickered at $17,000 brand new.
So crazy how much things have changed!
A masterpiece of a video, and the puppy’s face with the frisbee was the cherry on top!!!
LOL - glad you enjoyed it :)
Congratulations. Cant wait to see you start doing your magic on it.
Thank you and we look forward to sharing what we do :)
Gosh dang it Eddie and Cindy know how to party!!! Can't wait to see this build 🤗🤗 congrats on the two door!
LOL - thank you.
Welcome back! We missed you guys!
Thank you. We really do appreciate it.
Yes a 2 door,... this is what JEEP is all about ......BASIC JEEP . love ur channel (from Canada)
Thank you and yes. Jeep is awesome right off the showroom floor. All the extras that you can add to it are nice but far from needed to have fun.
Yeah….. that’s gonna be sick when your done with it. Looking forward to the future mods 😎💪
😎
Looking forward to this build series.
Awesome :)
FINALLY!!!!!! A 2 door build. I am looking to order one now. Get on it! :-)
LOL - working on it :)
Looking forward to see your build up on your new beautiful Jeep 👍
Thanks 👍
Nice video. Hopefully you keep them coming. I’ve missed your channel.
Thank you and we will try our best to keep them coming. We still have a lot going on but will try to work through it.
Let the build begin!
Awesome camera and video editing work! And I can't wait to see you off road in this!
We're truly flattered to hear you say as much, thank you :)
This is some of the best editing and filming I have seen on You Tube! Bonus points for the Jeep content 😉and border collie moments!!
LOL - thank you. We're truly flattered that you would say as much.
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
