After looking at several Rubicon Unlimited I decided I had enough. So this afternoon I pulled the plug and traded the Mercedes in for a 2015 Unlimited Sport, anniversary edition. It's all ready setup with a lift, bumpers, Warn winch, and aftermarket wheels with 35x12.5x17 BFG , Mud Terrains. So this evening we went up and ran Mammoth gulch over to Apex. So now she's got some mud on it.

Yes Jim it is the 5 speed automatic.

It's nice to have a rig that I don't have to do anything to for a change since it's already done! Supposed to get with my son and go wheeling again today, we haven't decided on a place yet.

Trail ready ruby, AND a 78 bronco. I had a 79 and of all the trucks I've had, I wish I would've kept that one. Best lookin truck ever built IMO.

Not totally sure cause they took the upgrade build sheet off and tossed it in the trash when they cleaned it for delivery.

Charles we decided to wait until I retire in 6 years just in time for the Jeep to be paid off!

Well after 5 days of having this rig I returned it to the dealer. Didn't like it overall ,coming straight out of the Mercedes and into it was like complete polar opposites. Didn't like the way it handled on the highway or around town, for a factory lift it wandered a lot. So back to the dealership yesterday and brought home a really nice Firecracker red JK Willys. Soon realized the blue one was all about the lift, tires and was way under geared for 35s (3:21s). It really didn't have many upgrades past that.
Now with the Willys well let's just say it's more like a nice caddy or Lincoln with all the upgrades and geared 3:73 which makes a noticeable difference.
