At the recent Overland Bound Off the Grid Rally we had more time to spend with @jdunk and his 2006 Jeep Commander XK Overland Build. The Commander did a billy-goat routine up the mountain, escorting a wide variety of vehicles. For a full list of stats see below and if you have more questions head on over to the forums build thread to ask away! Thanks to Josh!

Jeep Commander Forum Build Thread

I’m building it for 2 primary uses. Local Search and Rescue, and Overlanding.

I had to give up my WK about a year ago due to the absolutely HORRIBLE gas mileage I was getting, and all the driving that I have to do for work.

I replaced it with a ’14 Trailhawk as my daily driver, and mild trail car. (It impresses me all the time…)

Anyway, back to the reason for this tread… I picked up an ’06 HEMI QD-II with a fraction over 100k about a month ago.
