Nice OP....Now take your happy ass over to Eastwood.com and get a few cans of their undercoating for spraying INSIDE the frame. If you plan on keeping it any length of time you'll thank me.

I'd love to get a clean older one and mod it. It's hard to find unrusted older Jeeps here

Honestly I think my wife would like to drive it some, so that's why I opted for an automatic.

Great color choice. I would do without the Nav, leather, and other goodies but I like mine as simple as possible.

I really wanted anvil but I picked up a black '13 sport that was sitting on the lot for 23k. Hard top and automatic only options. Couldn't pass up on the price. I did the teraflex leveling kit, raises front 2" and back 1" for a much better look. Now I'm looking for wheels and tires for the spring. Might do a flat black wrap one day also because these Wranglers look amazing wrapped.

Would you be interested in trading your wheels for the 18" Sahara wheels? I have a buddy looking to do the swap. Only 3k miles on them.

I'm a tech junky.  I went in wanting automatic, 4.10's, and the 430N.  They were able to get me this Jeep with all the fancy stuff for not much more so I jumped on it.  

No interest in trading wheels, thanks for the offer though!

On the way to work this morning and it started shaking violently.  CEL started flashing and I pulled over on the side of the road and it was fighting to idle correctly.  Turned it off and back on (i'm in IT) and it started kinda rough and then the CEL stayed illuminated.  Drove to the autoparts store and had it scanned and these are my fault codes.

That is the best you should expect out of a vehicle shaped like a barn.

Jeeps are great for building and taking offroad, they suck ass for daily driving.
