Maybe you just need to let her know about the safety issues of not having both.

Don't let me get you in trouble >
I'll gladly take the blame but not the responsibility.
Lol I like your way of thinking. She has been wheeling on almost every time I go this is my 4th jeep.

98 TJ
05 LJ
07 Rubicon unlimited
And now a 12 sport unlimited

I just need to pay her car off first

But I think I will definitely get the winch if I can use the mopar bucks for it. It will be the first time I've ever had one.

I have u-connect
3.73 gears
Tow package
And full power
Hardtop
Automatic

I may already have a hookup for the rails so I will look at other things and also verify that I can get the winch with the bucks.
Thanks for all the feedback
That's why I love this forum!

Your Jeep sounds the same as mine.. I bought it a week ago. Do you know when this program started? Or better yet, what day you bought your Jeep... Thanks

Well now I feel like a dumb a___. Was re reading the mopar site and the title says winches. ( no picture ) describes the warn winches. Then 1 line at the bottom says additional details and it says what I'm looking at is the price $347 is just for the synthetic line for a warn 8000 winch. Wtf. So now back to square 1 on what to pick out since I have a hookup in the works for the rock rails and the cheapest winch they show is $850.

I was wondering what Warn winch you could get for $347, figured it was some Mopar/Warn deal.

Are you sure you have u-connect? Just because the radio has the button does not mean that it is installed. With free dealer $$ and CA cell phone laws, that is one option that I wish I would have added.

Positive I was using it when I drove off the lot. Plus I like being able to change the radio stations or iPod by voice. Only bummer is the u connect doesn't work with Siri on my 4s so I can't dictate emails or texts on the go like I could before.
