Default Today, I am a Jeep owner!

Hey everyone, sorry, but too excited to hold it in, I BOUGHT MY JEEP TODAY

Since I'm over in Iraq I won't be able to pick it up until Feb, but what an awesome thing to look forward to when I get back.

Here's the specs:
2008 Wrangler Unlimited X
4x4
6-Speed
Stone White
Infinity Sound System
Power Group
Dual Top Group (a decision made thanks to the JK-Forum community)

Other minor options:
Fog Lamps
Tow Hooks
Window Tint
Leather Wrapped Steering Wheel
Speed Control
Temp/Compass Gauge
17" Rims


Uncle Sam needs to get my butt back so I can officially be a Jeep driver and no longer a Hummer driver.

Good deal, if I would of had the option of using the military sales I would have, I had a buddy that bought a Harley Night Train for about 3 grand less than what he would have paid for it in the states.

Congrats Trev! Now you have the truly painful part of waiting to drive it.... Hopefully someone can take a few pics of it and send them to you.

$3000 grand... why do I always do that?

It isn't built yet, I ordered it from the factory, so no pictures yet. I did see a story of a Marine who recently watched his first child be born via webcam. I wonder if Jeep would set that up in the manufacturing plant?

They did give me a guarantee that it would be available for pickup when I return to the states. I forgot to ask what that guarantee means. I hope its like a pizza. If its late, its free.
