Default too many stock jk's!! reason?

I see to many stock jk's & jku's driving around now-a-days. So what was your reason for modding your jk or not modding your jk? Everytime I see a stick jeep. I think...poor jeep!

In my opinion the stock JK sport that I bought was a little ugly. It had tiny tire, no nerf bars, and nothing really cool about the exterior. After putting 2500 into it during the first month of ownership I can honestly say it looks 100 times better! This is my first jeep, but no matter what car or truck I buy, I always have to do stuff to it! That's just me though!

I don't understand your concern.

I'm thinking that a lot of people buy Jeeps just because they like the versatility without having to MOD it. Or.... Some people just don't have the money to throw into it right away. This shit is expensive!!!

IV had mine since April 2009 and have made some mods, mostly cosmetic, to her.
Personally, Im on a limited budget, its called retired, and do what I need as I can.
Bad part is the list is longer than the funds to aquire said parts.

Shit IS expensive and thats why I love the forums... I've got good deals on here from people who upgrade. But ur right... "versatility without having to mod it" like going topless, and doorless to the beach... That alone makes it look awesome without having to buy shit. :-)

When I finally land my Wrangler, I plan on very little mods. The one that will be done will be mostly for comfort or safety. (speakers, headlights, trunk, ect....)

Not everyone will wheel. My big attraction to a Wrangler is the fact that it is a convertible that and also be used a daily driver, a winter vehicle, and a light tow vehicle.

I'm still going back and forth between 2 door and 4 door, stick and auto, 2012 or 2013.
