That's funny, but I can't say I blame them.

OT, but out of curiosity, I tried to build a Jeep Wrangler Ultd on their site.

First step was pick a model. Right, there are 13 to pick from. THIRTEEN! No easy way to tell how they compare either. I gave up.

Well done, Jeep.

Also, it looks like you can only get stick with the shitty V6. Edit: on the Jeep.

When I was younger, I had done some pretty hairy off roading both in Jeeps and modified short wheelbase 4x4 pickups. I have seen some crazy flex conditions in jeeps

I wonder how long the LCD in the dash is expected to last?? or how well isolated it is
