Hey all Steve here from the Philadelphia area. I've always wanted a wrangler, got into construction which forced me to get a pickup truck for the past 13 years. Out of that industry now so just put my order in for new JLU Rubicon. While at the dealership, my wife also picked up a JLU Sahara off the lot. So going from no jeeps to 2 instantly. Can' wait for mine to come in

Hello from Nashville!

Long time lurker, first time poster. Test drove the JLU Sahara and Rubicon today, and I am sold on the Rubicon. Would really like to hold out for Sting Gray, but may cave and go for Granite sooner rather than later. Currently working with a dealer in Columbia, TN. Will let you know how it goes as we get into pricing and ordering. Thanks for everyone's insight, it's really helped with the shopping process!

Hi, I’m Rena. I’m in Iowa right on the Mississippi River. I bought my new Granite Crystal JLU Rubi last week. I’ve had 9 Wranglers over the years.
I absolutely love them and the JLU has some awesome new features. I traded my 2017 75th Anniversary JKU in for my new JLU. I’m so excited for summer!!

Hi all. Just sold my 2010 JK Rubi and bought a 2018 JL Rubi. The ride is night and day on pavement. Didn’t off-road in the old Jeep nearly as much as I wanted, but really looking to take this new one into some stuff.

New to the forum, so just wanted to check in.
Welcome, that's a great looking jeep!

Gary checking in! :wave:

I started loving Jeeps after a few trips to Moab and renting them. Friends with highly modified Toyota’s had me gear lusting until I finally stopped to reevaluate my needs and wants. I don’t need a KOH level beast to go hiking, biking, and camping and decided I wanted my Jeep to be a daily driver with benefits.

:rock:


So here I am waiting for delivery of a new JL. I will miss my LJ, but the ride and abilities of the new Jeep has me giddy in anticipation.

Marcy from northern California checking in. Ordering my first ever Wrangler this week as an early retirement present. We’re in the process of moving from the San Francisco area to the Grass Valley area. I’m so excited to be trading in 30 years of 2-3 hour daily commute for some backroads!

Congrats. I look forward to the day I can do that too. I won't be able to get away with a lift though for a couple years though.

New member!

Have rode around in Wranglers for a decade. I credit them with getting me into offroading.

After nine years of driving thrifty, cheap cars, I've determined I have earned the reward of buying what I have always wanted--A Wrangler.

Brand new.

So, I'm very hyped to buy a 2-door 2018 JL, either Sport or Sport S, with a manual transmission in either Blue or Orange this year!

I've been lurking here for a while, and this place gathers information like none other. Very helpful!

Hey everyone! 2018 JL Granite Crystal Unlimited owner here! Excited to be a part of the community/family! I recently learned of the "wave" too. It has an auto 8 speed, hard top (for now), and a few other goodies.
