Probably not unless I can get a deal better than I'm seeing on TrueCar, it's a little outside my price range.

^^ Nice, mind if I ask what model/options you have? I've been looking at a V6 Limited with Offroad Adventure II package and am hoping to find one with the Luxury Group.
It looks like the Diesel adds about $4k. I drive enough that the fuel savings offsets the extra cost while I would own the car, but the initial extra cost is more than I can afford and would be more than I would want to finance right now. I may still want the diesel, it just means waiting another ~8 months.
(Waiting to hear back from my insurance person if the Advanced Technology Group will give me enough insurance savings to offset the price increase, if it doesn't I don't think I'll include that.

Me too! There a lot of you guys out west, Denver, Grand Junction and I see Utah plates. You should make plans to make it to Grand Slam West in Moab, it starts June 11th. There is even a group coming from California.
My former WK…took me everywhere I wanted to go for 5 years. Even hit a single Black/Blue Diamond trail where I was the only rig not locked front or rear. Got out of a deeply muddy "Dry" Lake bed.
The IFS did have it's limitations, the lifts available weren't that great (with super-lifts coming in around $4000), had horrid flex, but it took me everywhere and always got me home. I bought it not knowing anything about lockers, after market availability, etc. Now I'm in a Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited…but I still love my first Jeep.
Very nice. Thanks for sharing. What sort of AWD /4WD system did it have?

It is doable and very capable, but aesthetically speaking, with the forward slant of the rear and overall shape, it is not as pleasing to look at as a vehicle with a more angular shape, like the Commander for example. It would be like prepping a Porsche Cayenne, BMW X5 or Range Rover Sport with a lift and offroad tires... The vehicle can do it, no question there, but it just looks....... Wrong.... To me anyway :| It is awesome however in the srt8 package, or set-up like one.
