I know a lot of you are in the midwest/ east coast area.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a road trip? I'm looking to go somewhere with some good offroading, but also something for the family in the area. I was originally thinking pigeon forge but I'm not sure if there are trails and stuff in that area.

This is my first jeep as many of you know so I am not familiar with these things yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I also considered driving to MOAB but that's just too far to go with a 5 and 8 year old in the car.

Get ready for some pics folks! Thank you @Bkenyon53 for putting me in touch with Matt. He did a great job and I’m insanely happy with how the parts came out.

So after trying the red dash, and trying to tell myself it wasn’t that bad, I grew to hate what I had done to my Jeep. Then BKenyon53 posted pics of his dash, and within minutes I was in my driveway taking out my red dash pieces knowing I had to get them color matched. The dash made me hate the Christmas Watermelon look so much I decided I needed to eliminate all the red I could. So I took off the bumper and pulled out the tow hooks to have those painted with the dash. I took off the Rubicon decal, which I thought I might regret , but I love it this way!

I also hated the grey in the trail rated badge and the Jeep logo. So I removed the logo, and plastidipped the trail rated badge.

I ordered a black antenna.

I am so happy with the look of just green and black now!

I’d say $200 fair. I paid a little more, but had the 2 tow hooks which took some labor to sand the red down. I’ll also add that it is so cool to have the green dash panels. It might be the best $200 you’ll spend on your Jeep!

Yeah I just wanted to see what they were going for checking out one other place tomorrow and then will pull the trigger on it.

Thanks

When you’re early for work, you have time to take some pics.

Just an FYI, the European wrangler brochure (which was just released) shows Mojito available...the Sahara also has a pretty cool vented hood available that's different than the Rubicon.
