After mine burned to the ground (I'll show a pic of the old and new for those that missed it) I replaced it with a 392 in Sarge Green. This thing is a beast. It's almost scary fast when trying to accelerate around a corner. I absolutely love it!

It feels good to have a Jeep again. I know mine only burned down a week ago but I've really missed having a Jeep in the garage. I think I'll keep it stock for a little while. I know, I know, famous last words :)

Were you able to get the insurance taken care of that fast?? If so that’s gotta be some kind of record. Congrats brother!!

I think you'll definitely like the 392. I love mine. I had to wait two months to get my new one delivered when a kid hit me and totaled my two month old 2023 392, but I had my TJ to drive, so I wasn't completely Jeepless. But the TJ was definitely a let down in the power department. :LOL: Glad you are back in the comfort zone.

Did you snag that one in Morgan? (doesn't look like the same front to the dealership) I've drooled over that one for a while!

Came up the canyon on Wed and saw the scorch marks and felt sad for your loss. But now Congrats on the replacement, especially so quickly!! Have fun and hopefully see you out on the roads and trails.

Make sure you pick up that livernoise tune to disable the MDS. The 392 is an absolute beast.

No, We traded my wife's Land Rover in on it. When we get the insurance back we'll buy her a sedan like she wants.

I got it from LHM in Sandy. I've bought a few vehicles from them and they've always taken good care of me. I haven't been back up to see the scorch mark but I probably should get a pic of it for posterity.

That's good to know :like:
Yeah- the new ECM for a tune was delivered the same day it was announced. :clap: Oh well- a tune (Whipple ?) can now wait until the warranty expires. :like:

Congrats brother, she’s a beauty…… I know you said no mods, but I would have to beg, borrow or steal for the money if I had to, to change out that front bumper, I’m not a fan of the Madonna cones, not one of Jeeps finest moments imo..…😅……Are they removable ? I like the factory steel bumper……..

Still sucks about the fire. But gotta say it. That 392 looks to be appropriately dressed for some immediate fun and adventure. Good luck and enjoy your Sarge!!
