I'm loving mine so I'd say I'd get another of the same.

Though this time I might get the painted fenders and ... maybe... an automatic.

Better mileage and better in tight situations on the trail?

Do painted fenders increase MPG?

Do painted fenders increase MPG?

No but they look damn cool!

I’ll be interested to see what it would takes t make fenders like those on Sandstorm.

I paid $46K for it before taxes, so in this hypothetical i'd put $15K towards a lower-mileage 2004 Audi S4 in Nogaro blue (with chains done) and the rest towards a Lotus Elise.

What have they tried?
do you have a massive deadspot at top of your steering? nut on steering box is loose
wander? have they adjusted your toe in? mine was so far out it would wander in no wind.

have they retorqued everything in the front end?

Have they done the SS and trackbar.

Mine wandered and shook like a SOB, took it to my dealer and told them what to do, I got pushback from a few dumb kids there, but told them to STFU and do as I say.
They did the SS recall, trackbar, adjusted my toe to 1/4, and retorqued everything in the front suspension.

They actually apologized after finding 3 things not torqued to spec.

Driving it home it was a totally different jeep, I would say 90% better, I put on my 285/70/17 set ( was waiting to get the issues fixed before installing them) and it took care of the remaining 10 %.

I can do 100 on the highway and it feels stable as hell...I don't do 100 on the highway, did it once at 2am just to feel it.

All that and more.

So overdone...........and I'd be one more.

Another JLUR in Sarge green, satin PPF the entire vehicle and this time go full retro Army vehicle look.

 

[Sippican]

I’d probably get the exact same.

But get the damn LEDs this time!

When I bought my GLK350 with LED's, the dealer said after owning LED's I would never buy another car without them. He was right. First on the option list 'must have'. Only downside with LED's is they don't heat up. So, it the winter, with snow and ice, the lenses freeze over.

In a hypothetical situation ...What would you get ?

This is my first Jeep and it has always been a bucket list car for me and so I’m in a love hate relationship currently (and as I wait patiently) as she has been in service more than I’d like in 6 mos time (presently sitting in service as I type since Fri morning) and as I look back at my beautiful military green Cherokee in the parking lot

1. 2020 Dodge Charger Scat pack (but with 3 kids - 1 in a booster, and a wife who thinks otherwise of this and the Challenger might be a hard sell
2. Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited X or High Altitude
3. Dodge Durango R/T Blacktop
4. Deeply Discounted Rubicon???

The PHEV Wrangler..with adjustable wipers and cruise control, which my 2018 didn't offer, and proximity locks, which I now realize I should have opted for on my factory order purchase. : - )

I love my Wrangler but would like to do my part in reducing my carbon footprint.

Another Rubicon 2 door ...

 

[BrandonB00]

I'd throw a party if Jeep said they would buy mine back and I'd never consider another FCA vehicle again.

 

[Gummiente62]

Molon Labe.

No, wait, that's for my guns. Uhhhh, I'd probably get another 2dr soft top JL, really. Maybe with the 3-pedal DIY transmission this time.

 

[Gee-pah]

Seems to me that buying a used vehicle would go much farther toward reducing your carbon footprint than buying a new Jeep PHEV.

That's fair. But most of my driving is infrequent short trips that might be inclined to used mostly the electric propulsion portion of the vehicle and, well, I love my Wrangler so there's that. : - )

OP, good luck w/ your situation, if it were me and got all the cash back, maybe this~

Love it! It’s actually a Toyota Land Cruiser, FJ40 model. The FJ Cruiser is the modern derivative of the Land Cruiser. I had one - a 1973 LC FJ40, and I had a 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser I traded in for my current Jeep.
