only free advertising they had on mine was a vanity plate and was replaced with a wrangler one later. Then I got a 392 Wrangler one in black/bronze that is there currently. Thankfully no dealer stickers although my dealer experience was well above my expectations.
When we purchased the wife’s the experience wasn’t too bad. Mine they tried to lowball on the truck I was trading in. Granted as it turns out I got screwed with the extended warranty I bought as the finance guy said I could do my own maintenance. He lied. So I had to cancel those. Sucks they have to send the money to the lien holders though. It sure ain’t gonna help my payments. One day I hope to find a dealership I think is awesome. It sure won’t be while I live in the panhandle

Thankfully when I traded my '15 Cherokee I got KBB value for it and it was only seen via facetime with a sales rep. I passed on the extended warranty stuff. I learned my lesson with my last wrangler when I started changing exhausts, bumpers, suspension wheels and tires.

They offered me 48k for a 63k truck with 8k miles. KBB was 54.5 to 57.5. Told me what they could do with their 48k joke lol

So I have this blank area under the left tail light where on my 4xe there used to be the "4xe" emblem. I was thinking something is missing here and decided to see if I can put a Recon emblem there and Viola!, there is one that Mopar sells. Shouldn't these be on the Rubicons as standard?! Yep, my OCD hates blank areas... Mopar wants $71 for it which is crazy.

I have the XR package
As mentioned above, the Xtreme Recon package added to a vehicle is completely different than buying a dedicated “Rubicon Recon”.
leave the “Recon” badging for the people that have true Rubicon Recons…

I dont have a Rubicon but that spot is where my dealer had the free advertising. Pulled it off the first day :).
I had to remove that free advertising on mine too. Thankfully they don't drill through the body panels and affix a badge for that crap anymore. Those days sucked.

I think it will be a nice touch and your not trying to be something you aren’t.. I say go for it.
