    You can get an LS or that diesel and do it yourself if you really want it. Or pay someone 10k to install it.

    For the average consumer?

    I'd guess no major issues before they trade it in at 70k miles.

    For toyota people? 250k before major issues.

    I have really enjoyed not having issues out of my Japanese vehicles of late.
    I have owned some vehicles that required towed and repaired regularly and it makes you gun shy to drive them or rely on them.

    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    I know less about that than I do flying to the moon. I took wood shop instead of auto mechanics in high school.

    Went to the dealership by my work. Looking at a 2015 Jeep Rubicon. Then my fiancé wanted to test out a Sahara. Tested out the Sahara and she said it was a lot smoother. She really liked the ride. She found a 2018 Sahara with some nice options and fairly same price at priority Toyota in Springfield. Got there and it was sold. So we looked at some 4runners. Didn't really like the price and not that many options. Then we went to the jeep dealership next door just to look and see what they had. Looking at a few Sahara. Then they brought up this one that they recently traded in wasn't even cleaned yet from the previous owner. 2021 Jeep Sahara with the high altitude package with 20k miles. And she loved it! it has all the nice creature comforts. its got everything you need.

    Nice. Congrats! I'm glad you didn't get the 2015 Rubicon. I was not all that impressed with mine.

    Thanks Dave, I didn't mind it. I was going to upgrade the suspension and wheels and tires. so I didn't care for the ride.

    I get the appeal and all of that. I upgraded that entire Jeep and while it was great off-road (except on certain hills at Chris' house), the reliability just wasn't here. It came with a few problems that I fixed, but I never got to the point where I was confident with it. The JLs are a huge improvement over the JKs.

    Did that really constitute a wheelie? I'm not sure. I was too busy making sure my underwears stayed clean.
