Well, Im out. Couldnt resist the offer I got for my JLR. Just too good to pass up.
Came home and removed all my aftermarket stuff. Swapped back on factory bumpers, rockers, exhaust, etc. And now shes history.
Couple thoughts on the JL. Its a extremely capable vehicle, no doubt about it. But the way Jeep has been going about their business lately really irks me.
The little stuff like the visor arm that always breaks or the rear defrost wire coming off, I can live with. Its annoying, but really no big deal.
The clutch issue is unacceptable. That issue needs to be resolved and Jeep seems to be just poo-poo-ing around it for like 3 years now.
Also, that ESS setup has bugged me from day one. Completely asinine.

Just wanted to say its been fun and this sub is by far the best part of this forum. Take care!

Bummer, but you gotta do what you gotta do :(
What are you planning to replace it with?

I needed to get something with a little more towing capacity as the better half has decided we need a boat. Didnt want to go full size truck, so ended up with a Tacoma sport. Got a surprisingly good deal and it was very close to an even swap when all was said and done.

You got the better end of that deal.
