Sweet ride. I remember the day I picked up my new red jeep years ago. Take off the top and doors and enjoy the last days of summer! Cheers!

That is one of the sharpest Jeeps! Drive it well, keep the rubber side down.

Hey, is that a '13? Or still a '12?

I had a '05 Power Wagon. It also had full lockers. And sway bar disconnect, and winch, and rock rails and 35's and .... yeah, I miss that truck.

R U planning to wheel this hard?

I suggest Rock Rails and a winch, you'll add more, but that will get you plenty deep, but I bet you already know that ...

This.

Especially the Rubicon model. I think they should have vinyl seats and rubber floor mats. And snorkels for deep water. Diesel? Yes please. Sadly not available here.
Do they still have drain plugs in the floor?
Keya's Jeep is a looker for sure.

Yep, still has drain plugs and the carpet pulls out easily. Even the leather is a durable type. So you can still take it where ever you want it to go.

Thanks everyone for thenice comments.

It is a 2013, and the Rubicon comes with rock rails instead of steps. It has full lockers and sway bar disconnect. The only thing it doesn't have is a winch. I probably won't wheel this hard, as I like my paint on the Jeep....

Congrats! Very nice. I plan on trading in my vette and buying a Wrangler this spring. Would only consider a new one with the increased HP and fuel economy.

If you are comming out of a Vette, buy the 6 speed with the bigger gears, either 3.73 or 4.10 otherwise it will feel like a slug. They run in the 15 sec 1/4 mile range with a 6 speed.

WOW!

Should have looked at the pics closer - the rock rails are obvious!

I didn't know the sway bar disconnect has been added to the Rubi

I had leather in the PW too, but WOW those Rubi seats with the double stitching are MUCH nicer! I could go for those for sure!
