Thanks, I have gotten more compliments about the color. Even random people in parking lots, "Like your Jeep, great color". After getting the JK, however, I have founds some KJ haters that I didn't even know about. One of my sisters friends was saying how much see likes the new JK and is glad...

Thanks for the complements. It seems like everyone really likes that color, especially with the khaki top. I really liked the KJ but I don't have a family (no need for extra doors) and the redesign really swayed me over. I really hope buying the first year of a redesign doesn't come back to bite...

I traded in the KJ on an '07 Wrangler Sahara this week. Here are a couple of pics I took in the driveway.

And this is what a 40 sounds like on a KJ. (My KJ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MINLeOCAXn4

I'm still working the deal. My Affiliated Rewards discount is giving me $2,677 off the Rubicon. I've got them up to $10,800 on trade for the KJ. The Rubicon is black with a hardtop, but they also have a sweet green Sahara with a khaki hardtop that I really like, it's $2k less. My thing right now...

I know there are a few around here moving to the new Wranglers. I spent a few hours haggling over a 2dr Rubicon. I knew I probably wasn't going to get it but it never hurts. What kinds of deal are y'all getting, on the 07 Wranglers, and on your trade-ins.

I asked a similar question a while back in this thread "Smallest tire with a lift?". Jeepjeepster posted some pics of his lifted rig with stock tires. I haven't lifted mine yet; been thinking about getting a new JK. But I had almost decided to go ahead with the lift and keep the stock size tires.

Yea, I would say that the ditch picture is more of an Oh S#!T moment.

If any have, to the ladies, we need some pics.

What, 2003KJ hasn't posted yet? His KJ may have very well been the first one off the line with a 42RLE instead of the 45RFE. I'm sure he'll chime in with his build date.

This doesn't answer your question, but I know that in a Durango the odometer goes with the cluster. So when a friend changed his cluster he got the milage from the other vehicle, just happened to be less. When that happens I think your also supposed to go and have a note made on the title about...

I've been considering the same thing, keeping my 235/70/16s with only 10k miles. I've been looking at rusty's springs and the OMEs. What are your reasons for leaning toward the OMEs? I asked a similar question a while back and jeepjeepster posted some pics of his with 235/65/17's and with...

But just think of the turning radius!

I saw a red KJ in town without any roof rails the other day, looked slick. Did any KJs ever leave the factory sans rails?

I have a 40 on mine. Like jeepjeepster it has a drone but mine does it at about 1.5k. I have also had people in the back seat complain about how loud it is and about not being able to hear the conversation in the front. It's not that bad upfront but, if you plan on having people in the back...
