New Michigan JK Girl
FINALLY!!! I have a Wrangler! I have wanted one since before I could talk. It has been a long wait but worth it. I got my JK on July 7th (I will never forget that day as long as I live 
) I did have to deal with some leaking issues at the drivers side A-pillar. I had it into the dealership 6 times before they fixed it. The first time they did not even look at it and ordered me a new set of Freedom panels. Then, kept telling me it was not leaking the next 4 times I took it in. 
This last time they replaced the front header seal and so far it seems to be working.
We use the Wrangler with our RV (best RV vehicle toad ever!) I am kind of bummed we went with the Wrangler tow bracket, instead of just getting an aftermarket bumper with the tabs welded on. I found this out after we installed and used the tow bracket already. I was searching for a bumper that could work with, the and clear the tow bracket. Didn't find any I liked so, will use it until I save enough money for a new front bumper. First I want new wheels and tires though. I have not made many mods yet...just some rocker guards, grill inserts and some random interior small things.
Here she is 2 weeks after I got her and went to Michigan's UP. This photo is along lake Superior on the road leading in to Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park.
...and some more recent photos

Thanks for the warm welcome. I love the color too (Anvil) Will look way better once I get some black wheels on it. My husband wants me to go with 15's and some 33 General Tire Grabbers because it is the same size he has on his off-road race car. (Think MINT 400) It would be nice to have a bunch of spare tires available. So, I'm currently looking at threads on this....I know there may be some issues with Caliper clearance.
