2022 JLU Rubicon
Woke up on January 1st and decided that after 6 months of mulling it over, I was going to make it happen if I found the right spec’ed car…

Low and behold…. A dealer about 20 miles away had a car “in transit” that met my requirements….

2.0L. Cold weather pkg. Firecracker red. That’s it.

When I called them, It turned out that the JLU Rubicon I saw on their website had just arrived.. seemed like the stars were aligning….

Now if only they give me enough for my trade..

It was hard to part ways with my GT350…. But Garavel CDJR in Norwalk CT were excellent to work with and we made a deal.

Now to start the mods and find some dirt!

After some windshield time behind the Wrangler.....you‘ll miss the Mustang less and less.

I traded this in on my Willys.....

And I’ve learned that the Willys is more useful more days of the year, as I can’t take the T/A to these places:

Congrats! Did the dealer add the mud flaps? Didn’t think you could get those from the factory.

Thanks for all the positive feedback everyone.

The mudflaps were my first mod.. went for the RokBloks.. they work well however I still got a chip on one of my rear door hinges at only 900 miles. Oh well. Thats what I get for getting a new car in the winter.

Congrats, welcome, and enjoy! The only regret you’ll have is not getting one sooner.
