Is the connectivity group worth it in your opinion? I've seen quite a few posts of people ordering their '12s, but I don't think I've seen anyone with it. Just wondering if it is worth it, as I've also been reading the ipod USB doesn't really work. So is the VIC worth the ~$400?

Thanks
I ordered the connectivity group. Happy to let you know if it is any good once the jeep arrives.

The all new model was the original JK.
The 3.8 wasn't a new engine when they stuck it in the JK, I remember how many times my Jeep died and all the electronic stuff shut off my first couple of weeks I had my 07. Plus the stream of water pouring on my stereo and the tranny popping out of gear... Going to wait about a year and get the new 5 spd auto. Both my JK 6 spds had bad gear chatter.

Don't know the difference, but it doesn't get the standard suspension the sport gets.
Ahhh, I didn't see the performance suspension down there. I always thought the Sport and Sahara had the same suspensions.

I'm ready to order, but anxiously awaiting more information on the COD2/MW3 package. I think the game is scheduled for a November release, so one should think the package would too. If that being true, I would think we should be able to order in September or October.

Hey guys. Why would they offer 3.73 gears in Rubicon and not stay with 4.10's? Is there a benefit in having 3.73's?

Thanks

Milous thanks for the invoice pricing.

Now to decide between the Sahara and the Rubicon

And does anyone know of there is a greater towing capacity than 3500 for the new Unlimiteds?

Still the same. 2012 still has class II hitch, class II is limited to 3500lbs.
