Hopefully all this oil and fuel stuff going on makes it easier for me to nab that old LJ wrangler I've been on the lookout for.

I give that a 0.5% chance of happening. I love my 392 but still bent that I couldn't get it in a manual.

I went with the sorta overpriced gatorback ones with the bucking bronco on them. I actually like the look of them - though I know lots of people don't really like the looks of flaps.

I don't think it's unreasonable for someone to not want mud and dirt kicked up onto their boards/steps so they don't step in it and track into or off the vehicle. I know I get sick of cleaning up my garage so I don't track crap into my house.

Never seen that. I'd probably try to fabricate something myself that was smaller than a full flap.

They did it with Jeep back in the day! They're cool lookin' CJs with unique seat fabric.

I would not worry about winter with the soft top too much other than if you have to use the back a lot. The clear plastic will crack if you look at it the wrong way in freezing temperatures. I'd say the main advantage of the hard top is the added security. I had a hard and soft top for an...

I only have about 35k on my 21 FE. But only issue (other than the recalls haha) has been the modem unit dying (who cares) that was replaced under warranty. No cracks in the roof. No complaints from me, especially it being a first year vehicle.

Exactly. Call me jaded, but the trend seems to be call something a special edition to cause FOMO and have people basically just buy an overpriced appearance package with maybe some relatively inconsequentially upgraded thing.

Easy. Go with a different dealer.

First one and MAYBE the 4th one.

I don't think I'd want it on a four door platform, but I do think the 6G 2 door would look a bit better if it had just a little bit more junk in the trunk behind the rear wheel well like the 65 below. The 6Gs have rear bumper right behind the rear tire. I like the look of a little body there...

If you were gung ho on orange, I would say to get Marsh gray and do some orange accents on it. Just don't go overboard of course. The third one in the link is carbonized gray, but imagine something like that but with marsh gray. That's the idea. (51) Carbonized Gray and Area 51 with orange...

I make a fairly frequent round trip of about 350 miles. I do not want to cut it close. Stopping to fill gas takes like 3 minutes while I go in and use the bathroom. There are very few charging stations on the route so not only will I have to stop for however long it takes to charge, but I may...

I like the top a little more. In my mind, the bottom looks half-assed in that it should be totally black, not the gunmetal look.
