    Well TW...

    After many long talks with the wife, we have decided that the best option is to trade the taco in for the new JK Wrangler.

    Overall it just makes better sense. Solid front axle, coil springs all the way around. Way cheaper to build for wheeling, and overall just a better platform.

    I have pre ordered a 2014 Rubicon in orange. Having a dealer installed "Rough Country" Lift and some 35s.

    The Rubicon wont be here for a month or so. This is your opportunity to try and convince me that i should keep the Taco.

    Dont worry, I will continue to make Star Wars Shifters and offer them through TW even if i get a Jeep.

    Ben
