... tell people what you want to do.... As you state it I think most are unsure what you even want? NO; i'm between this and a savanna box truck, so it's an apples & peaches thing right now.
Do you want new or old? I don't want someones headaches so I always buy new vehicles and resent the payments for 36 months
Do you want a traditional type SUV, i.e. metal top all one piece? And if so what size? XS, SM, Smedium or Medium? I think medium with an aftermarket expedition top & barn door - but please don't ask why ???
New:
XS - Renegade
SM - compass
Smedium- Cherokee
Medium - Grand Cherokee
Do you want a jeep that has the removable top (wrangler)? see above
[COLOR]
2 door (JK) or 4 door (JKU)? don't know
What type of capability? Just 4x4, 4x4 + limited slip, 4x4 + lockers? don't know
Do you want all factory or do you plan on modifying? factory. I can do woodwork, but not mechanics
Jeep wranglers are big kid legos and all the different choices are mostly just packages the same as buying a bmw (leather seats or cloth, gps or radio only, etc.)
i'm really on step A, so when i'm told things which are G,H, & I, it's really not helpful now. it's like going out for dinner and ordering a steak. right now, I am hungry, but don't really don't want to know all the parts of a cow.
