Hey guys, first time posting here! Been out of the jeep world for a few years but used to frequent the other forums. And am ready to get back into a Jeep!
So I owned 2 previously, 07' JKU, 10' JKUR and I am at a bit of a crossroads as to what I want now.
I've been known to make hasty decisions when it comes to vehicles in the past, get a little excited and just jump into a project without investigating (ahem '72 FJ40)... So I want to really think this one through.
But anyways I have found an 08' JKU that meets most of my criteria, it is one of my favorite Jeep colors, green. 66k miles, 2 owner, clean inside and out and bone stock. It is in Tennessee so I cant see it in person easily, but I am very interested. Key factor with this purchase is it would be owned out right, no car payment.
This would be my DD (6 miles round trip to work) and plan to mod it right from the start.
SO, the other side is, I am pretty curious of the JL and of course a newer JK would be nice, but would leave me with a payment. I don't want to go with the 08' then be unhappy wishing i hopped into the new JL...
Whatever I get I plan to keep for a long time, for once.
Any thoughts or experience is appreciated, thanks yall--
