The unfortunate JKU & JLU of the day thread

Well, I guess if you pay someone to install all that crap, that’s what it costs.

But where is my credit for the brand new tires and wheels I just paid for as part of my $56k?

I also like 20” Wheel + 35” tire = offroad

I don't think this sale is geared towards the intelligent.

I may not be a Democrat counting kickbacks, but even I can't see how a $56.7K sticker, minus $2500 in factory incentive cash, coming out to ~ $54k...

$54k plus $31k in mods and you get $106k.

That’s obviously the fair price - for the dealership…

That's part of the "deal." Installed at the dealership so "you can trust the work," AND you get to finance it all together.
Easy financing drives prices WAY up. Houses, college education, cars, and car accessories.

And don't forget that your exclusive "Black Widow" stitched headrests and stickers will be under full warranty.

I love that phrase. Amazing how much shit that can cover when you get a bit creative.

I've seen those knuckle light brackets advertised on Facebook a LOT lately. I can see them being beneficial to a certain extent just like rock lights, but they sure do make a really good target for pretty much anything to hit.

Definitely not a good idea for those who frequent mud holes... But then again under fender and chassis rock lights aren't much help when mudding either.

No sir their not.

I was kind of wondering if that was your motivation. It's a small forum... Been there before myself. Got talked into driving through a mud hole by a girl (yep I know) and regretted it about 3.5 seconds into hitting the hole. It ended up costing me an engine. Even though it didn't bend anything internally when it hydro locked it wiped the bearings enough they failed after about 2 months.

Before and after the mud run... so it's not like that was part of the motivating factor...
