I'd say go drive both. That is what really made the decision for me. ...that and all the perks that came with the 2011. They want to move those 2011's, and are making some really sweet deals to do so.

Got the best shots I could with my phone. Hopefully they're not too bad and you can make everything out. Agreed on the evap skid. More like a metal box than a skid.

Thanks. That's exactly how mine is. Skid under transfer case, bar under tranny, nada on the oil pan.

If I recall correctly there is a bunch of info on the different stereos on the Jeep web site. Under the Owner section... http://www.jeep.com/en/owners/manuals/index.html

Download the User Guide, the Electronics section has the different ones... Good luck deciding.

My contact at the dealership just called and deep cherry red is now back in the system.

well i finally test drove a 12 today and all i have to say is wow, i dont own a jeep but have driven both and there is def a big dif. Maybe i am bias since i ordered a 12 Rubi but from what i can tell is alot more power. So i took the JKU mudding on the test drive and drove it back to the dealer all muddy, it was awesome. I cant wait for mine.
