It is classy without being a shade of despair. This is a big skittles forum, yourself included, but I prefer something a wee bit more toned down.
But I get it, not everyone wants to be cool.

My $68k optioned wide-body 392 Charger/Chally would probably be ordered in F8 Green Metallic if I pushed the order button today. It's a pretty cool looking color, especially with some form of brown seats.Detroit wrote: ↑Wed Feb 10, 2021 12:31 pmThere's been similar colors over the years, but it's never been a staple.

It's funny, I don't care for the color on my Corvette all that much as it is so old man spec. On a I think it is pretty cool, I don't recall them ever being sold in such a color. I dig the uniqueness, although I still prefer some other colors like yours and mine for example.
I think the only non-skittles color I like is Sarge Green. Sarge Green Mojave with the whorange accents would look

Threw some Silverstar Ultra’s from vatozone in the JT this past weekend. upgrade for $50.
I’ll revisit LEDs at a later point but these are certainly an upgrade from the stock bulbs.

I honestly think the halogen housings are a great bulb away from being good.

As long as Tony keeps his wing-sauce covered mitts off the bulbs they should last fine.
It’s worth the experiment to me. I’ve got the stockers in the truck incase one burns out and I need a quick replacement.

The is increasing.
So Chief blue is just about gone and can’t be ordered any more. Found 2 ideal candidates within 200 miles of Philly and both dealers will not trade with my preferred dealership.
According to the friend/sales manager Apex hooked me up with, deals are few and far between (verified, my dealership I bought the renegade offered me a $1100 discount off MSRP for in stock units only). Dealer trades are also non existent as they’re just burning through whatever inventory they get so quickly.
Given our situation, her lease is up in 4 or 5 months. It looks like we’re going to special order an Islander in Hydro Blue, black hard top with headliner, cold weather, tech, led headlights and tow hitch. MSRP is $46135 and it looks like with first payment and acquisition fee down we’ll be at about 1% of MSRP.
There’s not going to be any specials or incentives and an order could be here within 8 weeks. She’s going to sleep on it, but I’m thinking we’re close to throwing down a deposit.

46k is a pretty decent price point what does it come with ? Option wise.
I bought these for the
The left side still doesn’t work after replacing, hopefully it’s a fuse... haven’t really been compelled to look at it as it’s so cold and wet. The one that works looks to be very bright though

yeah, the Renegade lease is up in a few months and she started showing interest in a Wrangler late last year. Now the Taco is gone and I'm driving the Corolla, it's time for a "fun" car again so I'm encouraging her to make the jump.max225 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 20, 2021 12:55 amWayment you’re getting Wrongler ?fledonfoot wrote: ↑Fri Feb 19, 2021 8:19 pm The is increasing.

She likes the Islander trim, so we're likely going to end up building one with the options we need. Islander comes pretty well spec'd with a unique interior, suspension, 17" wheels with AT tires, rock rails, and a bunch of unique accents outside. I'll throw the LED headlights and cold weather package on it because of her daily 330am commute, and the tow hitch for the bikes/bike rack. Otherwise it's a solid build.

They have a Rubicon in stock in Chief Blue, with the cold weather package.
No hardtop. Need to price one out.

Although they have this Rubicon and it's the right color. I'm going to push for this if it's still available. https://www.jeep.com/hostd/windowsticke ... N7MW631939
