What is and shouldn't be.

RHD Jeep in Moab

So  I pull into the Market today to get some ice for my cooler.  No big deal there, buy a couple bags, come back out to a lifted TJ parked next to the Grand.  Weird thing was, the driver was gone, and as I pulled up to this Jeep, the passenger gets out and starts walking to the store.  Ooookay... why not just wait in the Jeep for the driver to get back?

Then I get to camp and meet with the Andy Steiner, the guy who put the run together I went on today (Hell's Revenge).  As I'm coming out of his RV, I see the same TJ, with the same passenger getting out.

It was to be about 2 hours later I realize that the "passenger" was actually the driver of this TJ brought over from England and left in Salt Lake for most of its year.  And, what's more the family brought an XJ over too, and it was on the trail as well.  However, because of the more compact and tucked together nature of the XJ, the differences were more apparent on the TJ.

So, here's some neat English mods from the factory that kept me looking for more unique European Jeep stuff on a Jeep in Moab, Utah.
