They are a herd animal, and like running together. Much like our military trucks, The wife and I had to have one M939 5 ton in each color. Thank goodness the military only had them in 2 colors, although we did get 3 total. Oh well....
Great story. Now, of course, you know we need pics of the JL...LOL. That's my wife's. It went like this... "It's my 50th b-day, we are going to Italy or I am getting a Jeep" I said, "Let's go to the dealership."
Turns out that was waaaaaaaay more expensive than a trip to Italy, but we fell in love with the Jeep. We drank the kool-aid fast and hard. Started modifying it and then came off roading and we were hooked. "You need to get a Jeep so we can wheel together." translate that to mean "I don't want to share my Jeep when we off road."
And that my friend is how I bought my TJ
p.s. - The JL is AWESOME, refined yet a beast. We are very pleased with it.
Oh Boy... I don't know if this is legal, @Chris will surely kick me off the forum if it's not
You can see two pics above at the end of my TJ pics. These pics below are older, since these we have added the front bumper and winch. ACE Design rock sliders/steps are next as well as sway bar disconnects, maybe some skids after that. 3 week cross country trip to Moab in July with the JL.
You won't get any flak about posting JL pics. A lot on here have a secret desire to have one in the stable next to the TJ, myself included...
They look a little funny next to each other as can be seen in the last of my TJ pics. Even though ours have very similar overall height (JL is about 1/2" taller) because of the massive front end on the JL it makes the LJ look so tiny... lol.
Thanks! I love the stability, with the Detroit in the rear and Eaton up front it was a beast yesterday.
Lockers are the best thing you can have off-road, that's for sure! Well... next to a winch!
Yep it's on the wish list, I'm pretty much broke/in debt right now with working on two Jeeps so gotta lay low for awhile

No no no no, keep on going. Money is not everything. How much is a locker? It's not gonna hurt much is it? It will be good out in the trail, much more if you install a winch, you'll gonna be the envy of many.Yep it's on the wish list, I'm pretty much broke/in debt right now with working on two Jeeps so gotta lay low for awhile

Forum rule 312b, section c
"All JL photos must have a TJ within 50 feet in the photo and at least 50 percent of the TJ must be visible, including the roll bar "
D. "Multiple pics must a 3-2 ratio of Tj over later model vehicles.
E. Comments such as " I'd rather make payments to the bank than the parts store" will not be tolerated
F. Any mention of quietness , comfort , back up cameras , heated seats or space to put things will be considered snooty .
We generally condone the "I got the Jl for the wife " line , but secretly know you drive them after dark.

I do see it says hybrid. Is it really a hybrid now or just the emblem is the actual mod?
Just the emblem. If someone has a way to make these things get better gas mileage I'm all ears but this emblem is for fun and to poke at the Prius owners.
