Been a while since I have posted anything (over a year) and I spent time just watching and staying up to date on the forum here. Turns out that life happened and I was not able to take delivery on my original Firecracker JLUR order placed back in Nov of 2017. She arrived around late March 2018 as expected, but I had to withdraw and let them sell her to someone else....it was a sad day, but first world problems I guess. Well the wife and I finally acquired one (for her), 2018 2.0L auto, Rubi, Certified pre owned with only 3,200 miles. The dealer was asking $44,500 but we talked them down a little, and with the positive equity in her Jeep (white JKUR in the background) we walked out just over $40k with tax/tag/title and got a 7 year 100,000 mile certified vehicle warranty on top. Shes not the 3.6L Firecracker Red 6 speed manual I wanted initially but shes gorgeous on her own.....and I have to admit the 2.0L is quite peppy with a 28mpg average for an unlimited on 33s. I plan to just keep on rocking my 2016 JKUR for a while and might visit the Gladiator option in a few years. We are glad to have finally gotten ourselves a JL to say the least!

I like the new Rubicon graphic, I don't think I've seen them side by side like that.
I may be mistaken but I believe that new graphic surfaced around 2013 with the 10th anniversary Rubicon, and was used on a few different Rubicon trim packages through the years like the Recon, and Hard Rock I think. But yea its a much better look in my opinion also, over the smaller standard letters.

Congrats on the beauty

If you were local, I'd throw coins in for good luck, but words'll have to do
