Mango Tango

..::LOST::.. · Nov 28, 2010

How many modded or not Mango Tangos are our there? I have one and haven't really seen others in my area. I'm looking for some mod ideas and not really sure what looks good on this odd color. Here's my stock photo of the MT. Time of photo was August 2010, a new stock Rubi next to my new R1200GS.

Anyone out there doing work on their ghey ass named Mango Tango?

Lastly, Jeep needs a cooler name the "Man Go - Tan Go". Oh well, I still like it for it's uniqueness, same can be said about the Namibia Orange GS. At least Nambia Orange has a cool name!

From our Jeep Club's trip to Rausch Creek on Saturday

All cleaned up (and before the PS Brawler Rockers were installed) for our drive to Arlington National Cemetery on Veteran's Day weekend to visit my FIL's grave

Just 33" with a 2.5" lift, the plan is 35"s when these wear out and I get a chance to regear and reinforce the front axle.

Nice! It's been a long time since I've been back to RC, and it still looks the same. What club do you wheel with?

That Beamer probably costs as much as the Rubi.

It was less then a Harley and a few other touring bikes. Sure, the big Adventure R1200GS is about the same in terms of cost of a stock JK. Mine isn't an Adventure bike though, rather it's the bare stock version. It however was a gift to myself after my third back surgery, which ended with complete success. So after 15 years of "not" enjoying life due to constant back pain I've decided to start catching up on the things I missed most.

That said my new adventures begin with the Jeep and my bike. The picture was taken a week before I headed to NC Outer Banks for a (in no particular order) beach wave catching, Jeep/Motorrad recreational off-road only beaches, cigar smoking, and getting my drink awn fun packed filled vacation. Can't wait until next year to do it again.

mango tango

I need to clean mine up....haven't washed it since well I never have washed it. I usually wait till a rain storm hits, wash a little mud off, then hop back in a mud hole on the way home from work! May have to do that this weekend when I chop the flares!!!!!!

T-Minus 7 days

It was a big change for me when I got my Rubi, well having come from a 2.5L TJ. Which brings me to my love hate relationship with the the JK.

I did see one other Mango Tango in the parking lot last night. For a second I thought it was mine, well it was by specs. Good to see them out and about... Now their not so exclusive any more
