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.

If it's true that he can't mod at all, then I'd say there's only 1 truly acceptable course of action...

MOVE!

I want the elec. disconnect and lockers
If she is not your wife then what's the matter. She can leave at any time then you're stuck with an "our" vehicle.

Get what you want and can afford.

While they aren't really that impressive of pictures, they are pictures which is better than nothing. Also keep in mind I have to cross a 4 deep, 200 foot across, flowing river to get there.




It's as far up the tree as I got and took pictures before it broke off.





Messing around in 2 wheel drive.

Good luck, I deffinatly like mine a lot.

Uh...a wife can leave any time too, right - AND take half of the contents of the garage with her.
Anyhow, we're really in love, don't plan on getting married, and like things just the way they are.
Just because we're not married doesn't mean I don't want to work on the relationship and do my best to make sure she is convinced that I'm buying the best vehicle. What is it with America's obsession with marriage anyway? I'm American and I'm NEVER doing the marriage thing again - all risk, no gain. Isn't it better to be in love and stay together because you want to, not because you should or have to? Being in a free relationship where one can walk away at any time keeps you working every day on nurturing the love and relationship. I just asked for a few pics to convince and impress the girlfriend that I'm getting the best - within the framework of the limitations that I have to live with in Switzerland (no mods).
/rant off

Thanks for the pics and videos everyone!
