As 78mitsu stated, he pulled it out of the garage on the trailer and to the 4X4 Challenge Park. This was it's very first 10 min under its own power. Things he knew before that run was; yes it needs shocks(needed to figure the length and placement), wants a front locker(wanted to test steering with out locker first), will add a back seat(not needed for first test).
He did learn a lot from this trip and is allready making changes, before it hits the trail. Here is the best part......He's into it just over $2000, so the music is a bit fitting
