2012 Sahara sold: 2dr Rub ordered 1/17 traded: 2019 2 door picked up 12/27
After 203 days, my JL Rubicon (ordered January 29) has FINALLY ARRIVED! I absolutely love it and it was well worth the 8 month wait. Icing on the cake is that it came pre-loaded with off-road pages! Managed to grab a couple pics with the new Jeep sitting next to my old 2012 JKU Arctic before trading it in. Will miss that Jeep a lot.

Congrats! That's a very long wait. Glad you're happy. Would you reply with your steering thoughts after a few hundred miles?
thanks

I know this wasn't for me, but I have just under 500 miles on mine and have had ZERO steering issues to date.

Has anyone else noticed you can turn your back up camera on for 30 secs while drivng?
Yes! I love this. With the doors off and no replacement mirrors yet, I use it to help change lanes and merge. It is awesome!

Thinking of putting 35's on my Rubi and just called my dealer to see what they charge to re calibrate the speedometer. $109! Must be a minimim labor charge. Ridiculous!
That's roughly 1/3 the price of a programmer so why not put those monies towards a tazer or something similar?

Tazer has an option to enable the camera when turn signal is engaged. Works awesomely. (Still looking forward to the mirrors I ordered 2 months ago to come off of backorder!)

^ This. The new Tazer Lite is only $219, though I love my fully featured one for $100 more.

Been looking at maps a bit today and Sunflower mines sounds intriguing, any Phoenix folks interested? Apache Trail looks like a scenic drive too, but its just a dirt road.
