Default Dealer modded Jeep

Well my Jeep dealer is finally wising up.. This is the first fully modded JK they have offered since the JK came out in 2007..



They Call it the Rock crusher special ... LOL

Specs:

2012 Sahara Tan Unlimited Sport. Auto. No fancy interior. No hardtop.
4" Mopar Lift
35" BFG A/T 315/70R-17
Black powdercoat alloy wheels
Mopar Tube Doors (with keyed locks)
Tube rock sliders
Stock bumpers.
PRICE: $45,196.00

Anyone thinking they are gonna get a COD MW3 from a dealer for under $50G, in Canada anyway, is dreaming..

That looks pretty good. I know my dealer has a partnership with a local 4x4 company that will sell you the JK the way you want it to be. It's beneficial as some insurance companies are not mod friendly unless you pick it up of the lot modded i.e. items are on the invoice.

But no hard top? The soft top is wrapped as if it came with the hardtop from the factory (dual top).

No hardtop.. So what good are Mopar Tube Doors " (with keyed locks) " Like your locking the doors on a rag top?..What are they actually putting on it..a 4" lift and 35" street tires'?

I'll almost guarantee that the dealer has no idea that with that lift the 2012 will need both a new front driveshaft and exhaust Y pipe otherwise the first time it's flexed the front driveshaft will contact the exhaust and inevitably damage it..

odd combination...like someone wrote...what seems like street tires...with a 4" lift...? (and yeah, that soft top is wrapped up just as it comes from the factory...

maybe the dealer is hedging 'his/her' bets...I guess it's returnable to stock condition pretty easily...

I think the problem is probably that if you do TOO much to it, it won't be street-legal...I don't know about those 'tube doors'...

and, yeah...KEYED LOCKS on 'tube doors'? might as well fortify the front door and leave the side door open...hmmm...

nice looking, though...that TAN looks good with black accessories...

Suspect the keyed tube doors and more likely to prevent the theft of the doors as opposed to preventing entry into the vehicle

Despite the criticisms, all valid, the dealer will sell that rig!
