"Believe it or not, the average household income of the average two-door Wrangler buyer is US$95,000, which climbs to US$110,000 for the four-door Unlimited variant."

I've got a JKU and my wallet/bank account is like a bottom less pit.. No matter how far in I reach, there never seems to be enough $$$... I do fit the criteria above, but my wallet says otherwise haha...

I've always kind of wondered how the JKU modders afford all the stuff they hand on our Jeeps. I know there's credit cards but in these tuff times I'm afraid to load up my credit cards. Saving for a suspension is going to take me better than a year since I need about $6k to do what I want to do.
I need another $50K a year to qualify for the stats you've posted - that ain't going to happen for a Pastor.
