A good deal can still break the bank. And trust me, you won't need any help with that.
Wow sounds like the guys yiu know are getting ripped. Especially on the soft top. Brand new takeoff hardtops go for that much.

I was basing on new. To make a point. Are you saving almost $10k by getting a Dragon Edition? Bc he can easily spend it getting it to where he wants it to be. It may be better off to factory build and choose EVERYTHING. I won't give advice based on the fact that I once saw it for $x on CL, 2 years ago. That isn't much help. I once saw a guy give away his Rubicon shocks and springs but I don't just assume I'll get mine for free when I want to upgrade.

Ah ok. I wasn't basing on that either as a regularly see them posted for way less today. I think I've had the opposite experience as you. Lol. But I understand what your saying.
