I'm with the other guys I would pass I paid 19,000 for my 07 jku with 50,000 which was my border line pass it mark but I got a steal for my trade so i took it... he would have to go down to like 15 to 16,000 for me to consider it

Keep looking there are just to many jks out there for great prices right now new and used its unreal

oh yeah I almost forgot my best friends neighbor just bought a 2010 with 400 miles off of a used car lot for 23,000 and it already had rims and 33's

Keep shopping. I waited....and waited because I knew what I wanted and knew I wouldnt be happy unless I got what I wanted. It also depends on what types of activities you want to do with your jeep. If you think you might get into hard core rock crawling then you might want to wait for a 4-door Rubicon that has the lift and some after-market stuff already done to it. Otherwise, you are going to be paying a fortune getting it where you want it. I bought mine with lift, wheels, bumpers and some extras already on it. And, I have had it just for about a year and a half and I have put probably over $10,000 of my own money trying to tweak it. Yikes! Im telling you, these things are addictive and they can empty out your bank account quick.

40"x14.50 tires (good ones; BFG, Goodyear, TOYO) can run anywhere from $350 to $600+ a tire (x5 tires). $$$$$$$$$$$$$

Have you tried your local car dealer and talked to there used car sales manager they have access to the car auctions all over the country and can find you a great deal and best of all they do all the work on looking for it thats how I got my JKU

Your asking for trouble if he plugs the holes. If you have your heart set on the jeep, tell him to throw in the roof rack. Lots of miles for that price.
Offer him $14500.
