I too am glad your ok as well. Me, wife and two kids were rear ended while at a stop light by a gal going approx 45mph my 2011 jkus took the hit, we walked without a scratch and her insurance paid for new upgrades, her new accord was totaled and she broke her foot.

Great testament on how tough a Jeep really is. Happy to hear you're alright! Give your Jeep it's proper send off she gave her all to keep you safe. See you back on the road soon with your new ride!

Rolled my Jeep 3 times when t-boned by an uninsured motorist on the way home from the dealership. Jeep was 2 hours old with 120 miles. I only had minor cuts and bruises. Click here if you want to see pics.
it's been a while and I'm hyped. Let the mods begin

The 3.6 is a very good engine...and which model depends on what you are wanting your Jeep to end up like in the future. If it is more of a daily driver / mall crawler / light offroader then one of special editions look awesome. However, if you are planning on doing a lift (3+) with 35s+ and other mods that can do some moderate+ offroading then go with a sport, save the money you would have to pay for the more expensive addition to go toward your mods and make your dream Jeep come to life as you see it.

Advice on the new engine? -- yes:
With the 40% more hp of the Pentastar and one more gear in the (auto) gearbox, just enjoy it

I just got a 2015 Hard Rock. It's a pretty fair deal if you keep the bumpers, rims and want a few cool add ons. I am running 35 nitto's and a metal cloak 3.5 with fox BDS shocks and I LOVE it. The hard Rock stands out and I like to have things a little different than the majority of the Jeeps. Go for it!
