There's a Chevy dealership near me that does that on full size pickups, Tahoe's, and Surburbans. They use Rusty's lift kits, American Racing rims, and whatever oversized tires the tire shop across the street from them carries.....(didn't stick my head under to see if they included skids)
The Jeep dealership has only done it with one Wrangler that I've seen, don't know who's components they used, but would be willing to bet it's also a Rusty's package......(again I don't know if it included skids)

Almost every vehicle you see on the Toyota lots have a Snorkal, ARB bumper, BFG tires etc they are ready for action!
Here in the US to many people would sue if you tried to do that. Would be too dangerous!:D

That's what I have. It also has a cigar/ette lighter, and another outlet for power.

2002's got it all. :cool:

Gotta love the '02s!

'02 best of the prod. years (IMHO).

That is awesome. If I could find a dealer when on my new vehicle purchase, where you could from the beginning, just say no to the stock tires and rims and start with a lift from day one, that dealer would be very popular. They could easily credit back the stock tires/rims and re-sell them, while you got the look you wanted, right off the lot.

Tim, I've spoken to the manager of the local Jeep dealer and he's keen on doing stuff like that but when someone goes to finance said vehicle the banks ask "Why is this one so much more expensive than what we think it's worth?" The banks nix the added cost of a lift on top of the sticker price. They do do it to used Jeeps and find it's easier to pass through finance when selling a lift on a used Jeep.

But.... if you're willing to pay for it, there's a dealer in Edmonton stuffing Hemi's into JKs. V-8 right off the lot. Additional $15ishK over sticker.

Sunroof, I don't know why but I've always wanted a vehicle with a sunroof.

hmmm....where's my sawzall? :p

We just traded or minivan for a 09 Impala and the dealer offered leather or sunroof since the car we were looking at had both, but then he found out he couldn't sell it. We chose sunroof and I'm loving the sunroof!!!

Never noticed that before.....That is a good looking option, thought it was just a model year change
