basically you were had and spend extra money on stickers and ego. I'm sorry if you truly believed its a real special edition but it will not help resale value or brownie points with us. the sticker probably has an addendum on it that looks official to an untrained eye but its basically just a highly marked up jeep.

So yes, the $10,000 package may not come with quite $10,000 worth of parts/labor; however, it comes close, and I'd rather pay that extra thousand or two to have the Jeep have a warranty as it is, from new. If I were to purchase a brand new Jeep, and put those parts on myself aftermarket, I would lose a whole bunch of my warranty instantly, and if anything broke, I would be out of pocket for sure.

Your fellow Jeepers won't take kindly to you if you act like you do. The dealership basically took you for some extra money for a specialty package of theirs. We all know how it works. In reality that is not a Jeep made Black Ops. That is what we are all saying.

It means like I said i my last quote, I basically paid about $2,000 over the cost of upgrading a stock jeep myself; however, my Jeep has a warranty on all the upgraded parts, as it came new. So I find that worth the little extra I paid, kind of like a warranty payment; especially since I actually use my Jeep.

Their "Black Ops Package" was a $10,000 mark up over their stock sport jeep. The black ops however came with, rock guards($500), 3.5" lift($1,500 + $1,000labor), 5 Hankcook Dynapro MT tires 35"($1,250), Snorkel ($500 + $200installation), Upgraded rubber mats, rubber/plastic door guards, upgraded rear tire carrier with extended tail light, and a few other things I'm sure I missed.
So yes, the $10,000 package may not come with quite $10,000 worth of parts/labor; however, it comes close, and I'd rather pay that extra thousand or two to have the Jeep have a warranty as it is, from new.

I just was in another thread about how far 10K can go on a Jeep (My List) and we have two seriously different lists of stuff here. Not tryin' to irritate just help educate is all.
Seriously take heed of this. Dealers WILL NOT honor other dealer modified vehicles!!!!!

It say's Wrangler Sport on the thumbnail then I go to watch it and it's private...WTF? :new: Oh well there is nothing wrong with owning a "Sport" man be proud it's a Jeep, I own a Wrangler "X" which is the same thing as a Sport and I am very happy with it!

Since when did they start making snorkels for the 12? I asked him about this a few weeks ago on his YouTube channel and didn't really get a good reply lol. Just found it kind of odd
