If someone rewound time and gave me the option to order again based on my experience so far, then yes. Absolutely. I'd option it the exact same way too.

And then I'd use my time traveling to avoid silly car accidents so the first few weeks of ownership would he even better!
At least you are enjoying it. Some have their car covered and parked.

Really awesome to see that most people would do it all over again...that probably doesn't happen for many cars.

Some of my co workers say my EB is as manly as a 3 $ bill. :lol: I say they're just jealous.

Yep...although I understand the feeling generated when there are multiple reliability or initial quality issues. I've really enjoyed the ownership experience so far, although that wait to delivery was messing with me bad near the end.

They are right, it's cool that your co workers actually know about cars and they are honest with you.

Yeah, former Jeep 2006 Wrangler Rubicon owner here. Made it awesome-looking over the years, but it was a money pit mechanically from Day 1. Never even took it off-road. :tsk:
I had a black 2005 rubicon first year with the six speed manual, I abused mine, rock crawling, mud, sand from Pismo beach and long periods on the hwy of sitting on the limiter at 90mph. Only issue I ever had was some catalytic converter issue that was covered by warranty. I ran it from new to 70k and then bought my f150 because I needed the bed for my dirt bikes. Guess I have been lucky not to have any major mechanical issues in any of my vehicles.(Knock on wood but I will continue to properly maintain my rides instead of asking for future trouble)

Don't tell them they're jealous, tell them the truth; you're a grown ass man and not some little boy in a man's body that needs to overcompensate by owning a big V8 with a douchey wake-the-neighborhood exhaust, or worse, a lifted hillbilly truck. :thumbsup:

Would I do it again? Yes, but with 68B added.

You were lucky, however, you did ditch it at only 70k miles, so who knows how the next owner may fare before it falls apart. My cat convertor broke at ~14k miles. I had to FIGHT to get it covered. Why? I was accused of using 'bad gasoline'. In the end, they decided to be "nice" to me and "compromise"...I "only" had to pay $100 towards replacement. Thanks, Chrysler! :mad:
I washed my hands of it at only 49k miles. Bright red, shiny, gorgeous-looking (and sounding) vehicle, but a huge bucket of bolts.

Never Again will I deal with Jeep or Chrysler. :tsk:

Wow...

I got the V8 with a wake the neighborhood exhaust. If that makes me douchey then call me Summer's Eve and show me to the nearest woman needing a cleansing.

The guy's coworkers are just asses.

2 coworkers has jgc's, one got lemon lawed, the other has a tranny leak and is on its 3rd led headlight assembly. One was a 13, the other a 14. I looked hard at the jgc's before deciding on a 4runner. The quality difference is huge, as is resale value.

Just an FYI...I've heard PLENTY of wake the neighborhood exhausts from smaller displacement engines and turbo'd cars.

Completely off topic but my 2014 Grand Cherokee has been great for 26k miles. :shrug:
