Jeeponomics 101: Eternal tirekicking for the gutless Jeep
max225 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 25, 2019 1:30 pm But to me... come on.. does it NEED a LIFT? Are you really going to go do extreme enough shit with it that it REQUIRES IT?
I get it .. if you constantly wheel and all the sudden are trying to go more extreme.. but just to start with that...
I don't understand off roading a 50k vehicle, period. I think I would rather have a dedicated cheaper off roader that is ok to be flipped etc to not deal with having 1000s of body damage on a brand new vehicle.
im just sharing things that I have in my area for 2 dr JLs... market is real limited.
For the record, I would not be going "hardcore" wheeling. But I have found the limits of a stock non Rubicon. Hence, if I went Jeep route again, it would be a Rubi.

I would wait for leftover 19s, or just special order with a FF discunt through our fellow FCA hookup. I think that's the best way to go... it would be extremely hard to find one that you like, or you'll have to buy a bunch of useless shit with it.dubshow wrote: ↑Wed Sep 25, 2019 1:37 pmmax225 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 25, 2019 1:30 pm But to me... come on.. does it NEED a LIFT?

Interesting find here.
Near base with auto and LSD (dana 44) Mojito. Used with 2k miles for $28k.

other than missing the power windoes, thats pretty much my spec lol. Now it needs to be $25k.

Soft top... base base... does it have AC? oh it does... wow... odd spec. Why don't you just fly to cali and get one here... seems like an easy enough thing to do.
flight and time to cali negate literally any savings. Show me a sub $25k base bitch.max225 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 25, 2019 2:12 pmWhat an odd spec...dubshow wrote: ↑Wed Sep 25, 2019 1:55 pm Interesting find here.

In cali, $28k for various 2018/2019 seems pretty standard.

We had a few for 25. 4 doors at 27/28 are doable.dubshow wrote: ↑Wed Sep 25, 2019 2:18 pm In cali, $28k for various 2018/2019 seems pretty standard.

The weird part about 4 vs 2 door at the base level is AC a $1500 option which is standard on the 4 so they are essentially the same price

But I really like my and have a paid for poverty with a new trans and new
Makes the case a real dumb thing to discuss. But I still want one. A note on a true toy is just dumb.
PRICED TOO LOW TO SHOW
I see your point on the price points on 2 dr vs 4 dr. My problem is I want the short jeep for parking at my house/carport and on trials.

My old jeep is still romping around. He completely butchered the front end. I asked him if I could buy it back. I regret selling.

No way in hell would I put any forced induction on a Pentastar. With 11:1 compression, there's just no room for more. It's not a matter of if it blows up, but when.ChalupaBatman wrote: ↑Wed Sep 25, 2019 4:45 pm So it begins. https://centralmich.craigslist.org/cto/ ... 09612.html
