jack_pine Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Just took delivery of this. Waited 8 weeks for it to be built. HAve new wheels with matching paint accent on the way and some tubular steps. Going to pull it behind the RV. Can't wait to get on the road. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boogieman Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Which engine did you get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack_pine Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 The 3.6L V6. Thought about waiting for the Diesel but decided against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boogieman Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 While living in Morocco I had the 4 cyl diesel. 4WD low and just let out the clutch. Wasn't fast but it would worm it's way over anything. I'm interested in how the newish turbo 4 gas burner with the hybrid assist is going to fare out in the real world.

Cubdriver Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Very nice. Enjoy! (And remember that 'JEEP' is actually an acronym for Just Empty Every Pocket. You'll have great fun when the mod bug bites...) -Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cubdriver Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Is that a metallic green? It looks similar to, but darker than, the kryptonite green 'Gecko' color that they had a few years back - Gecko was not a metallic. Yours is a very sharp looking color. I wanted to go with a granite metallic they were coming out with in 2014, but they just took too much time and I needed to get it on order, so I went with black on mine. Yours came with the nice factory bumpers I wound up installing on mine last year - I think they look a lot better than the original ones, but are still an OEM style. A lot of the aftermarket ones are just too over the top for my tastes. If you haven't yet, go sign up to get the catalogs from Rugged Ridge. Those will REALLY get your wife nervous! -Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moeman Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 (edited) Jeep’s are slow, loud, handle bad on streets but it just doesn’t matter ... so dang fun. Get two winches one for the car and one as a passenger and get dirty! Edited August 15, 2018 by Moeman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did a ton of research and of the vehicles you can flat tow, the jeep is the easiest to tow. It just happens to be the coolest as well. We also have 3 dogs so it will handle those to with the back seat down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
