Yep, the lever shows in the pictures of the ad.

A salesman from a Chrysler stealership called me today to offer me a 2012 JKU Sahara for 34g (cdn$)....I asked te better half and got the look lol.

I may not go for this trade after thinking about it. My 05 Dakota SLT QC has a better trade in value according to their website than the said 07 JKU....I knew mileage makes a diff, but heck...the est appraisal for my Dakota was 8-10g and the JKU was 3-4g WTF lol.

Thanks

Well, I did get the look, but after dealing with the salesman/dealership, we made them an offer (which was kinda lowball). They said no, not even close (this was last Saturday). So we left.
Monday the salesman called me and asked if we were serious and i said yeah. We came home Monday night with a brand new JKU Sahara. Loaded minus leather....liking we do :-)

Great Job! Congratulations on the new Jeep, I didn't think I'd like that color combo but it looks really good.
