i terse thing you say that! My wife finally admitted the JK was more comfortable on road trips than her Volvo XC90! Her ride is smoother, but the seats aren't as comfortable.

My wife swore she didn't want a Wrangler till I made her test drive one. I bought it the following week. Then claimed it for myself. ;-)

Nah, never too old for a jeep. At 34, I did feel too old driving a STi though, haha

Default 2013 JK Unlimited 10th anniversary edition

I told him I have had comfortable rides most of my life and am looking forward to some fun and I'm not worried about comfort! I think he want to push me toward a Commander.

In any case I'm just curious as to the age of folks driving the new JK. BTW I'm 54!
I'm 55 & driving my 2nd 4-dr. JK. Gave my 07 to my daughter & now I'm driving a 10th Anniversary Edition Rubicon complete with red leather seats.

Default 2 door jk.

I'm 40 and drive a 4" lifted JK. Parked besides a Ferrari and the son of the owner said to his father " that is a cool car dad"
And I thought to my self " it's a jeep thing and people do get it"

This is my 4th Jeep ( two TJ's and one CJ and now a JK) and I will never have a garage without one in it ;-)

Would like to have a original Willys MB parked besides my JK

Never to old to be a 4x4 dirt bag. I have a 2013 JK 10A. I just ordered some M/T ATZ and M/T 17 in. rims, can hardly wait for them to arrive. By the way, I'm 75, on Dialysis 3 days a week- but my jk keeps me going and young.

Where are my wheels??
