I'd rather have it with a diesel... But I want it to tow my current jeep once it's no longer street-able.

Not really anything nice about it. The seat color is hideous. I wouldn't pay more than $45000 for it.

That is a $100,000 jeep if it wasn't badged with Filson $(35k jeep, $30k brute conversion, $30k engine conversion - check AEVs site). I love it, but they've got a $30,000 profit built in.

Very nice. Without seeing it in person, it looks like a better deal at $130k than the JK8 at $60k.

Just my opinion.

No real rock rails eh? The rubi rails are nice but something a little extra with a bit of a step would have been nice for that much $.

I saw one in downtown Seattle last week. Guy had a filson license plate - I'm assuming this guy must have owned the store.

I still don't understand why people think the JK8 conversion is a benefit. I'd pay 10k less for that nonsense than for a stock jeep!

The engine however...
