I have no intention of trading my Jeep, mind you, unless they offer me the deal of a lifetime on a new JKU.

They will never give you what you put into it to mod it. It would be tough to put a price on it. They would want it back to stock maybe. Nice jeep though

For the most part, whats funny and I don't know why, but the dealer I was at wanted my aftermarket headunit instead of me putting the factory unit back. Its just an Alpine

Not surprising. My stock head unit is a POS. Only a matter of time before its gone.

Thanks bud! I really have no intention of trading it in... just curious to hear what they say. It's only 20 minutes of my time, so why not. Plus, I'd pull as many mods off as possible before any trade was finalized.

Every time I buy a new rig the dealer plays the "we need used inventory" game with me. Its just a ploy. Most important thing to them is moving new vehicle inventory through the dealership.

Watch out they don't try and void your lifetime warranty.

Agreed. But with the amount of mods I've done, there's not much left covered by the Lifetime Powertrain warranty. I haven't done anything to alter the engine or transmission... so, hopefully they'll honor it should the need arise (but I won't hold my breath).

It's a sales pitch, period.

If I do get a 2012 I can start the mods all over again! Who wouldn't want that!

Was it chrysler who called you or the chrysler dealership... Two different things right there. My local dealer called me and said the same crap to me about my 05 GC. needed to stock there used car crap.
