Exclamation Need help identifying what jeep i have!

I know this sounds strange but here is the story. I recently bought a 2011 Jeep JK from a local dealership (i live in Calgary Alberta Canada). The brought it out and told me it was a wrangler Mojave. Ok, here is the thing the only thing that tells me that its a Mojave is that it has a Mojave sticker on the fender with the Longitude and latitude of the Mojave desert. After doing some research i have come to realize that the Mojave has these lizard decals all over it and says jeep on the side of the head rests. Mine had none of that! The only other thing it has is the 32" m/t's and grey rims! So i come here to get help on helping figure out what this Frankenstein actually is because it bares no "Sahara" or "sport" tags and on my pink slip says 2011 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X. I can post a few pics and what not but anyone know how i can truly figure out what this is, i want to know if I paid to much so I can complain if its needed. your help is much appreciated!

Thanks

Pics would help, it's possible the dealer applied their own decals

Sounds like you got hosed. I'd write down ALL the features of the Mojave edition, then mark what yours is missing. If the dealership refuses to either install those missing items, or give you a discount, I'd pursue legal means if necessary... false or misrepresentation of goods.

What is your VIN?

http://www.compnine.com/vid.php

enter it in here you might get something.

From my experience, the best I can tell, the Mojave Jeeps are a cross between the Sahara and the rubicon, rubicon suspension, axels, tires with gunmetal Moab's for the wheels. should have color match fenders and not the black plastic ones. the interior should be leather, all of the ones I have seen have the rich brown leather seats and have the gecko embroidered into the seat., otherwise there should be a gecko on the hood, sides, and one on the top left (driverside) rear corner of the hard top (to the left of the whiper motor).

My guess from the sounds of it is you got had by the dealer, I would go back.

Also all of the ones I have seen at all of the dealers (4 of them around where I live) the Mojaves have come in black and sahara tan, running around $35k US sticker.

Location makes a difference in price but for a fully loaded X or Sport you should have prob not paid more than 30,000 USD TOPS a lot of people are getting fully loaded X models for 28k USD. Its hard to say how much exactly but depends a lot with all the features that you have. Did you get the head unit with the touch screen? power everything? hard top? pictures would help
