Okay, I might piss some people off. I’ve seen a few mentions of guys having their wives pick out colors with the Jeeps or the Jeeps themselves. What’s that about? I’m honestly curious.

few reasons for me, first off my wife is not a jeep person let alone a car person so she would see it from a more practical view point than me, so she came for the test drive to she if she also thinks it was a good idea, and we are a team if she said no for a good reason that would have killed it right there. she love the test drive and i moved forward


as for the color she picked it, i was between red and black i asked her what her preference between the two, she said with out looking at any other colors she thinks a slate would be better, showed her a picture of crystal granite and that was i went with. again it is a team thing if it makes the pill easier for her to swallow i will take a compromise and color is the one area where i care the least about

For me color is a lower priority than features, but I'm more function over form. I have preferences, but would have been fine any color. The Firecracker Red that was at the dealership appealed to her, so we went with it.

It's my jeep. My husband gets that it's my thing. He pretends to be interested, but he knows that it's all my choice. As for colour, there are no colours other than mojito.

Happy wife, happy life! But in all seriousness I was between a few different colors and I asked my better half because the Jeep was something I have wanted for a while but I wanted her to be a part of it as well. With that said she really liked the idea of red, but the 5 red Jeep's I have had in the past made me really want something a bit different. We both agreed the Ocean Blue would be a cool color which would be unique. At the end of the day she is my partner, and I want her to enjoy the Jeep just as much as I do.... okay maybe not just as much I want to enjoy it (drive it) more than she does but I do want her to enjoy it. :)

My dealer just told me there's a wind noise issue on the Sport and Sport S hard tops that they're trying to resolve, which is why orders on those are temporarily unavailable.

Is anybody else able to confirm this? How would that problem only affect the Sport and not Sahara or Rubicon if they all use the same top?

Okay I'm pissed........... LOL

When we have been together for 50 years, we bend to make life easier.

Plus I really wanted the Ocean Blue anyway.

Have there been any video reviews of the regular soft-top yet, as opposed to the premium soft-top?

I made the main choices as far as model and packages but sought her input on what she thought about painted fenders and wheel upgrades. Makes it a lot nicer when we're driving around together and she's parroting my "god I love this vehicle", rather than "It's okay, I just wish you hadn't got those ugly ass wheels!" She has better taste anyway.
