I ordered a build through Koons in VA, live in MD. I sold a 2014 Ford Escape to CarMax in MD for a few thousand more than the dealer offered for trade-in. Since I ordered a build, waited until two weeks before projected arrival to sell to CarMax, got their offer (good for 7 days) and waited until the 7th day. Drove it over, sold it and I took my Veteran plates. Jeep showed up about 12 days later. Kept insurance on the Escape after sale, brought plates and current registration good for another 17 months to dealer for Jeep pickup. They wrote up the plate/registration transfer docs and three weeks later I replaced the dealer temp tags with my Veteran plates once the new registration arrived in the mail with the Jeep VIN assigned to that plate.

Thanks for the share....I guess unfortunately...but also fortunately...we have resolved the issue, the dealer reordered the JL for us today with Tan interior. So While we may have to wait an extra week or so (original order was still D1), we at least will have the right interior.

On a side note....if anyone is looking for a moderately optioned Sahara in Ocean Blue with soft top and black interior...I know a dealership that has one on order...lol

 

[BostonBilly]

Glad for you. We pay enough for these things, you might as well get exactly what you want

Smoked some drumsticks today

Had a good time at go topless day, wet day but rain wasn't too heavy. Happy with the way the jlur handles the trails. I was parked on the lower level by the booths


Only saw one other JL a Chrystal grey rubicon with the premium wheel package parked on the level above the food shack

We also had a good time and did the 12:30 pm trail 1 ride. The two main climbs turned out to be more than I expected on a green trail but that just meant more fun and wheel spin in the rain. Good family fun in th JLUR.

I too was on the 1230 trail 2 run but don't know which trail I was actually on as they just meshed it up, so at the trail start I just went right rather than left because the left had a traffic jam

Hill climbs we're getting sloppy but the locks did their work and got to make 2 jk look like a fool, though I think he was open front and had a broken limited slip or lunchbox locker making some gross sounds any he broke of his license plate mount on a tree trying a Hill climb

 

[sjl136]

Yeah, there was definitely some trail confusion. It took me a few tries to get up the first climb and to get the feel of the conditions, but I nailed the second climb on the first go to the shock and pleasure of my 12 yr old son in the front seat and some of the guides at the top. I know I sound funny getting amped up about what should be an easy trail, but given th conditions, that was the best my stock jlur has experienced so far. After 3 short times getting it on the trails, it’s time to decide on some more belly protection and 35s as the next steps I think.

It sounds like everyone had a good day. I hope to make next years, down in Ft Meyers on vaca this weekend. Poor planning on my part

 

[BostonBilly]

Just called the 866 number to find out I am in KZ with a TBD ETA. Every day is closer and closer

 

[BostonBilly]

Anyone thinking about doing the Xpel wrap on their Jeep? Just curious if the benefits compared to the pricing I have seen posted
