Picking her up now!

Congratulations!!!

That looks Sharp.


I need to check the spread sheet to see if any with body color matching fenders/top have been delivered yet.

They will be nice.... when we get one....
My other take away on this is in the specs.... Weight: 4,863 pounds

Seems like a lot.

That's like 1800 Lbs more than the YJ, and 1000 more than the heavy feeling Cherokee.

She's gonna be a fat girl... that's OK....its going to be a pavement princess for hauling kayaks.

It's heavier than that... TFL weighed it in 5080 exactly the same as the gladiator.. but the time you add the necessary options, it will be 500lbs more than the 3.6 equally equipped...

Don’t do it brother, you’ll only kick yourself later. Then you’ll come on here and try to convince yourself and others that you made the right decision etc, when it was just a decision made out of frustration that you’ll regret soon after. Just wait and eventually you’ll get it and forget all about this stupid waiting game. Trust me, I’ve seen it many times before, and I’m sure you have too.

Man, I remember when people were waiting forever and a day for the power one touch top, now it seems like the majority of the delivered diesels have them. Also, the 18 miles on the odometer, is that from you test driving it or did the dealer or manufacturer put those miles on it?

Nihkole’s 3.0 is a Sahara. All Sahara’s come with painted fenders, right?

I stopped in the dealership today to see the 3.0 Diesel they had in dealer stock. My salesman quickly asked me if I wanted to drive it, of course I want to drive it. I did my usual walk around and checked everything out and looked under the hood. I hit the remote start and all I have to say is that you would never know it's a diesel by how quiet it is. For everyone that picked up there Jeeps with 30+ miles on the odometer, this one had 12 on it. I can't wait to get my Rubicon in! Very happy with how the Jeep drove and sounded.

That was the number when I arrived at the dealer. She's home now with a fresh coating of dirt/mud splash.

My dealer is full of shit guys the Jeep never showed up I’m tired of worrying about it really but I have a build to do before EJS. This is so frustrating.

That's some Bullsh....hopefully soon...heck, I was looking forward to an opportunity to check it out...

Well if it’s too quiet for my tastes then the sound deadening under the hood is coming out is all.

I know I’m waiting just not patiently

I told the dealer to forget it I’m buying a Gladiator he said come on down I got plenty I told no thanks not from you I think he got but hurt a bit. I gave him a minute then told him I was just kidding I’ll probably never get it now lol.

Are these vehicles being built in Arizona?

Oops. Hahahaha. I have an unconventional life. I live back and forth each month between Tucson, AZ and southeast Michigan.
