HYDRO BLUE Wrangler JL Club

[Steve JLUR]

This is EXACTLY what mine will look like, when it eventually arrives. October is such a long time away!

That’s pretty much what mine looks like, except with a SOT top. You’re going to love it, I love mine.

I ordered mine with the Dual top option, otherwise I would have gone for this as well. It looks amazing!

Thanks, I think the hydro blue makes all the difference. Most of the other colors look really good on Wranglers, but none match HB. Sometimes I just go out to the garage to look at it.

I was looking at the dual top option too, but my wife fell in love with this, so… Now I would not trade it for anything.

I hope your wait is not too much longer.

It's hard to go past something once you've fallen in love with it. Hahaha.

The dual top option is a bit more practical for me. Summer camping trips will be softtop, winter hardtop. I took a Gladiator for a test drive a few weeks ago so I've seen exactly how beautiful the Hydro blue is. It is stunning! I wasn't sure how I'd feel about the red accents, but in person, I fell in love with it.

So, reading this thread apparently gets things moving.

Just received a text from the boys at my local dealership telling me that my Rubi is at the manufacturer's!!!

Can't wait for the ship tracker in another month or so

I assume you didn't order the Gorilla Glass? Looks very good!

I finally found a pic online of what mine will actually look like. Super pumped.

I would have preferred the black hard top, but the body-color was part of the Sahara Altitude package. @Wonder I'll probably do the same, but skipped the factory soft top for now. Getting a Sunrider for this year and figured I could pick up a soft-top next summer. I think I want the fast back style anyways.

Mine is in paint as of today - should be delivered ~6/17, assuming no delays.

First thing I'm doing is ditching those grandpa running boards. Yuck.

Other "First Mods" will be bumpers and some way to get ~1-1.5in lift (probably Rubicon take-offs). Trying to avoid going to 35s for as long as I can....

Got mine on Tuesday!!

I'm so glad you guys keep posting pics of your Rubicons - every photo confirms that the Sahara was the right move for me. Those red accents would have driven me *nuts*, lol.

I also despise Superman, so maybe that's it?

EDIT: @Hydro_Kyle just noticed you've got the half-doors. That looks REALLY good. I might have to add those to my wish-list.

Man, I'm so jealous of those half doors! What a fantastic look!

This is *exactly* what I would build if I got a new Jeep today. Hydro, 2dr Rubicon, half doors, 6spd. Perfection. You have excellent taste!

Thank you!!! I love it. I also really like the manual trans so far. It’s very easy to drive. People rag on the 5th and 6th gear but those are just cruise control gears.

I am one month into ownership with mostly local commuting and haven't been beyond 4th.
3rd is my sweet spot and like you, I really like this manual trans.
