Well, for starters I bought one...a 2013 JKU! 
Modifications so far include removing the Freedom Top, adding fuel and adding some miles to the odometer
I've got a small pile of things to add this weekend (Home Depot grill guard, tow hitch w/ wiring, etc...) and will post some photos once added!

A lot done!
Three weeks ago my family and I were re-ended (we are all fine) but the jeep suffered some damage, as a result I replaced the stock bumper, suspension and muffler with:
2.5 inch Rubicon Express lift with springs and 5100 Bilsteins
Bestop rear bumper with tire carrier
Dynomax Dual 2.5 inch super turbo cat back exhaust system with dual tips
For added rocker protection, smitybuilt rock rails with steps
Love the look of everything, but boy the exhaust sounds great at idle but very loud at higher RPM's, I need to quiet this down...any advise? (other than new muffler) Glass packs?
Also, what blew me away, was my 8 year old son, helping me for 4 hours (without whining) put on the rock rails (I was prepared after reading great posts on this forum, yes the holes did not line up with bolts). His help was great and made the job a lot easier.
We are prepping the JK for 8 years of overland travel (at least one major Jeep Jamboree every year) starting when he is 10 with the Rubicon (we live 30 miles from it). I am planning a series of father/son overland trips with him until he graduates from high school (hopefully he will want to continue
)
