Thanks! My wife and I usually fly in to a location, rent a car and put crazy miles on it during our downtime in the Summer. This vacation was supposed to be the same. We traveled from Las Vegas to Zion, Brice, Moab then down to Monument Valley. While staying nearby we met a very well manored stray dog that hung out at our hotel. We moved on with our vacation ending up in Sedona. With the combination of a great meal ...and a couple of drinks, we hatched a plan to rescue the dog in Monument Valley. We found a used(18) JLU in Flagstaff. We had one more night in Sedona ( side note: the ride down to Sedona on 89A is great). The next day we returned the rental car and headed to Monument Valley. We got to the same hotel and talked to the management. The were all for us rescuing the dog. We spent nearly 12 hours attempting to capture her to no avail. We tried a few mor times the next morning but we realized... she was smart and had adapted extremely well to working friendly travelers for food and water. She had a great life by her own standards. We accepted defeat and headed home.
Most people get a snow globe as a souvenir of a trip...I got a Jeep.

Great story and great pictures - looks amazing! God bless you for trying to rescue the stray....he does look healthy and happy. Hat's off to you --- hope you love your Jeep!!

Hi All! Chris from Wichita, KS here. Picked up a 2020 JLU Sport last week. Still stock, but I've got some rock rails and a hitch to install tomorrow, then wheels and tires next week. My goal is to stop there and spend the next year or so seeing what it can do before I go nuts on suspension and such. Not much for trails around here, but we do go up to Colorado a few times a year, this will help get us places our Subaru can't.

Hello, I am from Western New York and new the forum. I recently ordered my 4th Jeep, but my first Wrangler.
I have owned a 2007 & 2012 Liberty, currently drive a 2019 Cherokee Limited and anxiously awaiting my 2021 Wrangler Sport.
I appreciate all the tips and advice on ordering & accessories!

Decided to add some color to the garage... ordered May 1st, picked up on Monday. Already finding out why a coworker said Jeep stands for Just Empty Every Pocket! ?

 

[Rubi2sDay]

Love that Hydro Blue!! New to the forum, but not new to Jeeps. Wife wanted a JT in Bright White so I took her JLU. Slowly starting to make it mine....2.5" lift coming in the next few weeks, then wheels and tires. Nice to meet everyone!

Hey, howdy all. Bucks county PA. Been lurking for a while, finally pulled the plug on JLU, have a Sting Gray Sahara ecodiesel coming next week. Can't wait to get my hands on it. Looking forward to gathering as much knowledge as I can around here. TIA

Hello from Cincinnati,

I ordered a custom 4xE (Bright White, fully loaded) through Gupton on 06/01. I have the VON, and per Jeep chat, they have all the parts to start building and it should start soon. Buying a vehicle after 13 years!. I just sold my trusted partner the 2006 BMW 325i (now I miss it badly ? ) that had served our family very well. Hopefully, the pain will go away with the new ride.

I already learned a lot reading thru this forum.

Thanks all
