She's a beauty! I have that same/similar pic of my rig right up there.. That's at the top before you start doubling back down to Devil's Staircase, right? What a special place. I imagine it's a touch better with pink traffic on a weekday? I like the stance - 3" and 37s?

Hello all. New to owning a Jeep and honestly haven't done any type of off-roading in 25+ years. Looking forward to learning how to do it right and exploring Arizona!

I live in the area also (Goodyear). I bought from Bill Luke.....a new order of a '20 JLUR. Had to work at it a bit.....but they made a fair price. After reading more on this site....I kinda wish I had tried at Larry Miller.....as that would save some driving (about 15 minutes each way.). I had read a salesman name at Larry Miller.....and was told he gave good numbers.

I got turned off on them one day.....as I was nearly attacked by the sales force there.......and they were way to pushy. Walked away PO'd. All were amateurs......so I tried Bill Luke. My salesman there was an old Jeep pro......and did a nice job on working thru the features, several test drives of the different engiines and tops, and putting together a good jeep....allthough I had done quite a bit of homework.

HI. No, I didn't buy from Larry Miller. Those guys would hardly give me the time of day. They wanted me to order the Jeep, then they would take whatever incentives Jeep was offering when it arrived off the MSRP. So, basically, they wanted me to order a Jeep without knowing the price. Lol.

I ended up going through Earnhardt in Gilbert. Which also happens to be 1% lower tax rate than Avondale. Very easy process. All online.

I've heard good things about Bill Luke. I ended up getting a great deal at Earnhardt in Gilbert, but several people suggested I try Bill Luke. Glad it went well for you!

Back in the middle of August I walked into my dealership and showed the power steering TSB to my service writer (Leo) at Rodeo in Queen Creek and was pleasantly surprised by his response. "Oh, we just got that paperwork yesterday ... we've got a truck [Gladiator] with that same problem. I've been waiting for you to come in. Let's go get scheduling to order a new steering box and we'll call you when it comes in."

Well, my steering box was installed on Tuesday and covered by warranty. That's for a 2018 JL with 38,500 miles on it ... yep, it's out of warranty, but they worked on the steering when it was new so went to bat for me. A Metalcloak lift, larger tires, and a Letzroll Synergy-like sector shaft brace ... although I did pull the bushing bracket off ahead of time. I highly recommend folks give my service writer - Leo - at Rodeo in Queen Creek a try if you're the least bit frustrated with your local dealer service. He's treated me well on other work also.

Yet to get the Jeep out on the highway, but it shows a definite improvement on the local 45mph streets. Well worth the effort if your Jeep has a mind of it's own like mine did.
