Not bad Sir, not bad at all. I'm not a big fan of black though. It's an outstanding color. It makes just about any car/truck/jeep/space ship/ look very, very rich. But, leave it in the sun for 10 seconds and, well, you know what happens. Anyway, I hope you have as much fun with your new toy as we had with our SEVEN JEEPS over a 25 year period.
My last one is pictured below. It was an '04 Yellow Rubicon. I did all the work on it. I did the lift, the custom bumpers, the custom side protection bars, the exhaust, interior roll bar, installation of Kilby-engine driven air compressor, installation of the 4:56 gears, the tow bar/recovery tab system, all of it. We used it for over 4 years and many, many happy off road trips. Many of them were at the Easter Jeep Safari in Moab. That Jeep went everywhere I pointed it.
But, after almost 30 years of Jeeping all over the planet, it was a time for change. That was almost 4 years ago. I do miss it now and then. It was nice to be able to be on a vacation with it some place and, see a dirt road and go, "let's head off on that road and see where it goes". I love exploration.
Anyway, that looks nice. "They" say the newer, as in '12s and newer, have a much better engine with more power and better MPG than the '07 - '11. I don't know, haven't owned or, even driven a Jeep after selling our '04. Maybe someday we'll have another one. Good luck with your new toy and I hope it serves you well.
