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.

So now we've got the new JK forum running, isn't that just the motivation you need to get this beast on the trails? When is the unveil? It HAS to be soon...

I already have insurance on the Jeep with an additional $50,000 coverage for the work in it, Gieco didn't have a problem with this with receipt's in tact for all the additional coverage...our rates aren't ridiculous either
