Its the same crowd that flips out if you don't wear the bro uniform of polos and khakis with some pretend luxury loafer, and drive a lexus.

Both of those seem like shitty ranch vehicles

This is probably what I'd hunt for if I wanted a jeep again, although you can still find LJ's for under $10 grand if you're patient.

I loved my 2013 sahara until it was totaled back in sept.

I bought a used 2018 sahara and its been great but what jeep fails to tell anyone buying a 18-23 they did not prep the metal correctly at the factory so your body panels are a bucket of rust. :angry:

I am currently fighting with them to get my hood and doors fixed under there shame rust warranty.

We have trucks. There is a lot of rough terrain so these were used to get around off the roads or on the rougher roads.

Love my wrangler... but am not too thrilled with the oil leak that just developed. Will do the oil filter housing replacement with an aluminum one here in the next few weeks.

I would too if I could hit the lottery. Outrageously stupid price on a decent Bronco and totally in another universe for a really nice one.

I've done Hell's Gate. It's not for pussies. I went on 3 wheels when cresting the top and my hands are still shaking.

Just did that, pain in the arse. Not hard, just time consuming with where it is located.

Went with the Dorman replacement.

Here is a giant thread to get details and gotchas

I've got a 97 Wrangler and 96 Cherokee and do most work myself. Once you get everything replaced, they run quite well;)

I live out West so I do get to use them for their intended purposes.

I need to take my Jeep back out to Moab UT. Was out there 5 days and still a lot to drive and see.

My old man just picked up one of these lightly used. Gecko Sport S, max tow package, appears to have the Mopar lift and 35’s. Can’t wait to see it in person and go for a spin. Any idea what the production numbers were on Gecko?
