Any love for Jeeps here?

Jeep offroading?:D




Sorry, just couldn't resist. I know that Jeeps are actually quite capable in the rough stuff. Many years ago I went on a trip to and around Death Valley with a Jeep and a 109 Land Rover. Both handled the rough stuff.

Oh, it's nothing, I know haha. There really isn't much around where I live and we went to the beach a few weekends ago, so I had to go out and drive around on it a bit. No issues at all

Nope…..

Dunno how come I am subscribed to this thread since it appears my only previous post here was deleted….. seems not having a car to brag about is not allowed. So I make this post only to be able to unsubscribe.

Probably cause the post didn't add anything to the conversation, much like this one. ;) You can unsubscribe without commenting again.

Absolutely :cool:

hnngg. I am going to be buying a Wrangler Unlimited soon.

Can't figure out if I can shoehorn a Rubicon into my budget or if I should just go with a fully loaded Sahara - which is still a good thing. :)

As much as I would like a Rubicon, it just wasn't in the budget. I got a great discount on this loaded Sahara (demo model). After driving it a while, I think I made the right choice :cool::cool:

Strange, never had that problem. I know my buddy went to buy a 2010 Charger in cash and the salesman laughed and said "yeah right", guess he didn't think a 21yr old had enough money saved to buy it. Little did he know, we just did a 15 month tour in Iraq.



Glad you found a vehicle you wanted.


That's funny, in 2008 I just returned from Iraq and the same thing happened with the AAFES car dealer over here in Germany. Kept asking me how I was going to pay, cash of course. He was like really what kind of payment. Cash I said. Only way to pay over in Germany at the time straight out was a check. He thought it would bounce, I showed him my USAA account, and wrote the check for $30,026 on the spot. Just picked this up a month ago at the same place in Germany.

Yeah, a Rubicon would max my budget without even trying. I could do it, but then I wouldn't be able to get the nav or body colored fenders/top. Hrmm. If I said that on the Jeep forum they probably wouldn't let me buy a jeep. XD

Nice. May I ask what options came with your mustang? The 2015 mustangs are calling my name. Especially since while on PCS leave my buddy back home just put a whipple supercharger on his 2014 mustang and took me for a ride to see what 600hp is like.
