Default Did I make the right decision???

Ok, I recieved an email from my dealer and my JK will be here next week. I WAS really excited when I ordered the Jeep but now after reading a bunch of threads for a few weeks, I am starting to get nervous. I really would like to hear some good stories from some happy owners and not just all the issues like interiors that scracth easliy and tops that leak. Any input would be appreciated since I am at the point where I might just let my deposit go rather than make a big mistake! Thanks in advance

Go to any vehicle forum and you will see people discussing issues they have with their vehicles. With that being said my top hasnt leaked and I dont think the plastic is all that bad. Ive had my Jack Russel climbing around all in there and havent noticed any scatches. Ive never owned anything other than Jeeps but I will say this is the best Jeep Ive had.

There have actually been fairly few unique problems posted on this forum, each of which have been brought up multiple times and discussed ad nauseum.

If you want encouragement from the forum, look at all the pictures, trail stories and signatures. Almost everybody here is very enthusiastic about their JK. I think I have only seen one post where someone was selling their JK and that was for family reasons.

Anyway, I think the best part of this forum is when people post problems because you can get a heads-up on things to look for on yours and it helps you make your Jeep better. If you don't use the forum for that, then you likely will never notice anything wrong with your Jeep or ther vehicle for that matter.

You made the right choice. don't worry

The good far out weighs the bad!
Yea, I've had a few problems, but nothing that wasn't covered in the forum and the dealer has been helpful.

This Jeep has the more room than any of the others (YJ- TJ). You can actually put a grown adult in the back seat. (OK, the seat belt does try to strangle ya)

It handles well, and the ride has been improved.
and to top it all off, the top comes off! That's the best part!
I was able to take the front half off he freedom top the first day got it. It was great.

I love this Jeep (K)(L)
Good Luck

This is my first Jeep and I'm pretty sure I'll always have at least one Jeep in my driveway from here on out.
