Colorado left the stable with a bit over 41k on the clock. I never really had any issues with that truck and quite liked it for what it was.

But I’m a moron and do dumb shit.

Player 2 enters the game.

Went to check out a JT for :science: since Chevy wanted to bend me over for a ZR2. We go down to my buddys diller as it was super easy to :dill: with him on the JL.

So after much discussions with Dplac and wifey we wanted to see if a JT would fit our needs. Ideally I was going to drive whatever they had on the lot and then order a Hydro Blue Sport S Max Tow.
Life has a funny way of doing it’s own thing.

The sales monkey goes out to pull a sport s around for us to drive, check out car seat figment, etc. and ends up pulling this white Willys up.

I said damn, that’s a fine looking truck. The black accents and wheels from the Willys package really go well with the white.

Image

We ended up making a :dill: on the spot for the Willys! It’s long, but drives nicely.

White Willys JT
Tow, cold weather, auxiliary switch packages
Hard Top
Selec-Trac
Spray-in bedliner

Looks pretty good next to the Bikini JLU.

We’re like the poor version of Dplac’s stable.
:fuckyeah: man. Pretty excellent spec on that truck, and I think you'll really enjoy it over the Colorado. I do like the truck in white too, not as generic looking as our white Sahara JLU.

'grats dude! I'm glad the Bikini is still in play so we can :dock: from a distance and be Bikini :gaydance: Bros. The new :truk: looks awesome, stoked for you!

Also, :whalecum: back, you have been missed.

lol.. I just logged in to post about this. So Raul at the bodyshop called yesterday shortly after I got the automated update to ask me about fog lights (my original bumper had them, the one I bought didn’t, new one does.. told him to just install the bumper and I’ll handle fog lights myself) and then told me it’d be done either yesterday or today. “I’ll call you between 2 and 2:30 to let you know which one”. Never heard back. It’s now 2:37 the following day and I haven’t heard if it will even be done today. If they don’t contact me by the time I’m off of work I won’t go bother picking it up today even if they say it’s ready. Super shitty customer service.

Online system wasn’t even updated. How fucking hard is it to tell someone you won’t deliver as promised. I would have told them that was fine and thanked them for the update. Now they’re going to get blasted on google and Yelp reviews.

Yeah. We’ll see if they even answer. Both times I’ve called during business hours it’s rang through to voicemail.

Next time don’t ever go to this shop again. After about a dozen or so experiences I have never been to a shop that doesn’t pick up the phone. That’s ridiculous

Oh yeah, I hopefully won’t need to go to a shop again, but if I do I’ll be using a different one. I’ll let Geico know about my experience here since this was one of their network shops and they referred me.

Got an automated update the the Jeep is done and “we’ll call you soon to arrange pickup” at 7:45 this morning. No call since then. I called and left a voicemail. Jesus fucking Christ this company sucks.

Got the Jeep. They actually did a really nice job. Looks like they detailed the outside of it, refurbished all the plastic fenders and everything, inside is nice and shiny. Steering wheel is ever so slightly cocked clockwise, but it drives straight so :aintcare:

I actually really like the new bumper. Detroit, I may need some help finding part numbers for the fog lamps/lenses.

The bull bar has to be purchased separately from the bumper and mounted, and they didn’t have that listed when they sent me the part number for the bumper so I was surprised to see that they ended up ordering and installing it.
