    A Discussion of Differing Points of View: Is Jeep Leasing an Intelligent Choice or a Dumb One ??

    I guess that might be one of the reasons why leasing has not appealed to me. Anyone have an answer for my trade in question on sales tax?

    A Discussion of Differing Points of View: Is Jeep Leasing an Intelligent Choice or a Dumb One ??

    I would think the vehicle itself has everything to do with residual value. Any desirable vehicle most likely will have higher residual value no? Again in a state that has taxes if one has a trade what portion is taxed the entire msrp or is it negotiated price or just the difference? What about...

    A Discussion of Differing Points of View: Is Jeep Leasing an Intelligent Choice or a Dumb One ??

    I do not live in a state that has sales tax so not sure how it works but say my current vehicle is worth $40000 on trade and it is paid off and I trade it in on a $50000 vehicle so the difference is $10000 do I pay tax on $50000 or $10000? If on the $50000 I guess I could see leasing if you are...

    Am I SOL?

    nope dana used on jeeps has not done that since at least 2012. Not sure why as it only makes sense to tag them which probably why they don't.

    Am I SOL?

    I just read his window sticker and he does not have 4.10's. the sticker shows what is standard and by optioning the auto he needed to have 4.10's as an option and it did not happen. Trailer tow will not get you 4.10's as jeep says 3.73 and 4.10 tow the same amount.

    Am I SOL?

    if you you only turned the rear wheel 1X that is not enough. jack it up again and turn one of the tires a full 10 rotations while counting the driveshaft rotations. 3.73 on a 2 door will feel fine as long as you are not loaded/built heavy and if you have an auto you won't hardly notice a...

    a JK premium soft top is very quiet and holds up well. I am sure the JL/JT are the same.

    With the rate of exchange a JT rubicon starts at $40,500USD which sounds pretty good.

    I have seen Overland editions around $50K which is a lot. This particular Rubicon edition was close to $60K which is too much for me but man if money is not an issue...so worth it. :)

    so on Saturday I looked at Tacomas TRD's and a Gladiators back to back and I actually dozed off for a few minutes looking at the Tacomas it was nearly as boring as my wife's CRV. On the other hand the Gladiator image is stuck in my head still. It would have been an easy sale for them but no...

    1976 FJ40 barn find.

    yup put $45000 into it and have a $35,000 rig :). It would fun to know the story why it was parked with 62000 if that is the real milage and how it was just left to rust away.

    2015 JKU Rubicon, 1.75" spacers vs AEV 2.5 Dual Sport

    I have had several different lifts including AEV 2", 2.5" and 3.5" If you like the current ride the AEV 2" will give you exactly 2" and ride the same and will clear 35's on most trails. The AEV 2.5" is a great riding lift and will actually feel better than stock and clear 35's the 3.5 is also...

    I can say a new JK and presumably JL wrangler 4 doors are very comfortable for long road trips. I am always humored when someone rides in my wrangler who has not been in a new one says wow these ride really nice. I live in Montana so we have 100F to -40F temps and mine is comfortable in either...
