You also have one of the best spec'd going right now... Aside from it not being purple.[user not found] wrote: ↑Wed Jul 10, 2019 12:12 pm I considered a JLU if the right cropped up, but nothing really had what I wanted, and I didn't want a $35k note.
Cheaper to keep the very nice I already have. Hence why I threw money at new

My brother in law just traded his JL in on a Tacoma. Was having a ton of issues with it apparently that the dealer couldn't fix/replicate, so he offed it for something more "reliable", though I think he'll hate the Tacoma in less than 6 months.
Said the JL's HVAC system started going crazy, blowing extremely hot air at random on his legs, even with the AC on. Also said it started randomly braking itself at highway speeds without warning. Not sure what the dealer did, or didn't, do to try and fix the HVAC; he never said. The brakes, they replaced the ABS sensors, modules and something else (can't remember right now) and it still continued to happen.

Also, you can probably do better on your own, but if anyone wants...I can get you an affiliate discount code for 1% under invoice.
Yep, 3% here but no discounts for trade in.[user not found] wrote: ↑Wed Jul 10, 2019 2:14 pmWelcome to the east coast.
We also don't have 10% sales tax.

We also don't get a trade-in credit. Technically we do, but it can only reduce the taxable amount by $2k at most. At 6%, that's $120. Whooptie shit. I remember when the .gov passed it and was all

Wellll.....that's a good point. They'll just reduce the trade-in amount by the amount you'd "save" so it's just a wash in the end.

Lawd is the difference between the BFG ATs and these stark. Quiet and smooth, and I went from a C-rated LT tire to an E-rated. Same pressure, even.
