Default Bought a JK

Well, finally broke down and went over and bought a 2007 Wrangler Unlimited.

WAIT

I'm not a traitor! My wife got one, now we have the H3 and JK. No pics yet, but I'll make sure to have some poser driverway shots soon once the weather turns nice.

And of course we'll have to go beat the crap out of it to see how it stacks up against my H3

Bring them both to some sand put them in 4 low hook up your tow strap and have a tug of war. A video is a must

Nothing wrong with a Jeep. Is it a Rubicon?

No Seriously thought about it, but decided to go the Unlimited X route w/just a few options, then upgrade later. We get wicked discount through our work (1% below invoice), but have to take off the lot to use the code - the only Rubi's on the lot were fully loaded (way more than she would ever need) and even with the discount were more than we wanted to pay. This way we can upgrade later depending on what we want as cash comes available (and now our 'upgrade' budget is split in half between the two rigs, so I get less $$ for my H3 ).

Congrats on the new rig!

I saw a black Unlimited Rubicon at the hardware store on saturday, and the guy had a real nice setup ... hardtop, 6 spd manual, dark window tint, iPod adapter. It's cool you have both in the stable

Default Re: Bought a JK

So now have a couple hundred miles on the JK. ..First impression is that it's a Jeep, rides more harsh than the H3, interior is more hollow (plasticky), seats aren't nearly as comfortable, but the driving position is more comfortable (higher in the cab, more upright), interior has more room, seems to be 'tighter' than the H3 (but there's 35k miles difference between the two), haven't rodded it yet (<500 miles).

But I will say it's more fun to drive. It's more open inside (more room all around), you have more fun. If I was going on a short drive (like to work, 5 miles) I'd choose the Jeep, on a longer trip I'd choose the H3 - I'd be hating life after 10 hrs in the Jeep. They are both great rigs, both have their good & bad points.

Can't say anything off pavement yet. It's gonne take awhile to convince the wifey to let me beat it up. Maybe later this summer...
