    First of all, if you're reading this, it's your fault that I'm here now...

    ... so thanks for that. :cheers:

    I've been reading all sorts of threads here for right about a year now, and just yesterday pulled the trigger on my 2013 Off Road.

    Help; I can't stop grinning when I see my truck.

    I traded in an '07 Subaru outback. I drove 6 hours to a dealer and was nervous the whole time. That outback was great: AWD, light hail damage, paint oxidizing, clear coat peeling, stained upholstery, the works. I didn't have to worry about anything. Buddy spilled his coffee? No problem. Lady's grocery cart ran away from her to kiss my bumper? All good.
    I was nervous because of some of the negatives that some members have pointed out. But those negatives don't hold a candle to the positives, and I couldn't be happier.

    Big shout out to some members whose builds pushed me over the edge (and they had no idea it was even happening...):spy::
