I am tearing up even writing this post, but am looking at having to trade in/sell the JL...will not be forever, but for a year or so having to go to a fuel efficient vehicle for the time being (100 mile round trip for work for at least a year). I was shocked at what Carvana offered for my 45k mile 2018...36k which is more than I paid for it brand new, but of course minus the wheel upgrades. Just love how these things hold their value. Will be glad to get back into a new one in a year of so, but until then will be living through you guys on here. Anyone else made a trade lately with the used car market so inflated right now?

There's another big thread about the recent rise in JL resale prices.

Bought my 2018 in February with 11K miles. I have spent about 2K in upgrades (namely tires, LED lights, floor mats, stuff like that). Dealer called to ask if I wanted to sell it back. I told them that I had spent money on it. They offered the purchase price + the 2K I spent + 2K more … I said no, because I would not be able to find another one. But, interesting how desperate they are …
