JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Today I ordered my 2dr rubicon. Is there anything I should be worried about? I just want my jeep to get here.

Ah, what to worry about. Well, here's what I worried about while waiting on delivery of mine:

1. Did I make the right decision with the full-metal doors? I ordered that for security--the vehicle will spend time at trailheads while I'm backpacking, and while I have almost no worries about leaving a backcountry campsite of expensive, ultralight gear unattended, I worry that someone will come along and mess with the Jeep. But, I noticed that in the color Jeep pamphlet from DCM, every decent image of a JK with the top down has the half-doors. Would I be happy with those full-metal doors? Answer: I remove the front doors every chance I get, anyway, so it's moot.

2. Four and one-half weeks after ordering vehicle someone from dealership calls and says my JK is on a rail car in Kansas. Woo-hoo! Then he says it's a good thing I ordered the soft-top, since the Freedom Tops are unavailable. Back to that security at the trailhead thing--uh-oh. I tell him I ordered the Freedom Top and he pauses a moment, and mutters, "Oh, so you did! Never seen one come through so quickly." What will be at the dealership when I arrive there next week? Turns out it was the Freedom Top.

3. About an hour after that phone call, the local news reports threatening weather--hail and tornadoes moving through state--biggest threat is up north in Kansas. On no, wouldn't that be the pitts: Tornado wipes out trainful of JKs enroute to Oklahoma!

All the above is true, but, truly, don't worry: You're gonna love it!
