18 year Wrangler guy, I made the jump!

[Firewire]

I guess this is my introduction thread! Been lurking for a month and mulling the switch over for several months.

So I have had 6 Wranglers (JK & JL) for the last 18 years (pretty much one every 3 years). My last most current one I drove for 3 years this month and kinda figured the natural progression was to get a 392.

My wife said let’s just drive the 392 Wrangler, a 4Runner TRD Pro, and a Bronco Raptor. We decided to drive the Raptor first. We walked around the other two but never drove them after driving the BRaptor! We were sold! Didn’t buy the one we drove but located one that met my search. (I found a '22 w/ only 19k miles & Gold Certified)

So here I am! A convert! And I’m never going back. Reasons for my switch. Top 3: Ride quality, cabin noise, & technology. Of course there are a host of other reasons but these three were hugely important to me!

So now I have a very well cared for Wrangler for sale in OKC! And yes, I already swapped out the beauty trim rings on the Braptor!

Congrats! There's a guy I see in my neighborhood every morning driving a Bronco that looks just like that.

Nice find. Those Braptors kinda ruin it for everything else. We are never selling the Glades but we are looking for a DS Braptor to add to the stable.

Looks like it added some style to the garage floor as well

Ha! That was from a vise restoration project a few years ago! Good eye though!

Congrats. Finding an older one likely saved a bit of coin. At least you found the Braptor exclusive Code Orange color.

Welcome, what a nice upgrade!

Yeah, I thought $62k OTD w/ Gold Certified and delivered 250 miles was a steal! No wrecks, clean service history, and bought and sold originally at the same dealer. Only 19k miles! They had it on their lot since March, so they were motivated (small town in Arkansas - I am in OKC).

Awesome looking rig. Congrats. I bought my Everglades in Elk City, OK and drove it back to Colorado. The fine folks at Byron Dyson dealership were excellent to work with and picked me up at the airport when I flew in. Great experience and congrats again.

You got the right color.

Welcome and looks familiar. Get that thing in the air and you will see the difference between the Braptor and all the others. Also get the ProCal tune if you can. Nice upgrade to the 3.0.
