(You can lead them to the water but you can't make them drink) why not stop the personal attacks and get back to the thread and it attended use that you started and use your own advice (have a friendly convo )

In Albuquerque, NM Stock is the exception. More often I see modified jeeps. (All years).

You started this thread and what I don't understand is why you bought a jeep. You don't care about the people and their jeeps, or why we all bought our jeeps why we do what we do to our jeeps what we all like and don't like. When someone replies to your thread you don't tell them to leave because you don't like what they said. You better know what knowledge is because when the time comes when you need advise about something this is the place to turn to for help and answers. So start learning how to care about everyone.

Lol I don't need a forum for tech info or id be posting in the tech forums. And now you idiots are trying to tell me what do when I never told the old guy what do to. Just suggested it. You people are way to text sensitive. Pussies.

Can't wait to see what that stirs up. Lol you people fall for controversy to easy. I bet y'all can't even argue or debate in person without crying. I could say I like trees and somebody on here would find a way to get offended.

Now I have a JKUR that I bought in June 2011 (about to have my 1 year anniversary). Personally I love the way my Jeep is stock and that's a good thing considering I paid well over $30K for it. Since I have other priorities in my life right now (saving my money for things like a rainy day, a house, retirement, vacations, concerts, etc.) and a huge car payment, I would really hate to start modding and breaking things on a vehicle I still owe money on. The longer I go with the Jeep being stock the more I think I like it stock.

I have done little things like the Quadratec floorliners, Yakima roof rack, and Rugged Ridge doorless mirror brackets so I could enjoy the jeep a little more for what I want but other than those things I am kind of digging the Jeep in stock trim. Sure I would love to do a huge lift and tires, motor swap, winch (will do this eventually), bumpers, body armor, and all the other goodies but like many others have said, that all costs a lot of scratch and in my old age (30) I guess I would rather see a swoll bank account than a swoll Jeep right now.

That's the whole reason I didn't buy a sport or X from the beginning and just mod the hell out of it, I knew I wasn't going to be able to mess with it for a while and wanted to get something that had pretty much everything I wanted from the start.

I don't see anything wrong with this, looks pretty bad-ass to me:
I agree, nice looking jeep!

No mods on mine till the warranty is up, why give Chrysler another reason not to to fix something? Even after the warranty is up, my modifications will probably be minor anyway. I'm pretty stoked by my Jeep just the way it is :-).

When I started thinking about mods I never really considered what it would look like. Everything I've done so far has been for the purpose making it work better on the trail. If what I did couldn't be seen from the outside, it wouldn't matter much to me.
