I seriously thought about selling my 2012 a little more than a year ago. My reason was towing. We love camping and riding the Harley. My 5000 pound toyhauler was able to be towed by my Jku, but I knew I was pushing the limits. I decided to keep my Jku and buy a second vehicle for towing, so I got a 2011 Toyota Tundra. The towing is night and day. With the Tundra, sometimes I need to remind myself I got a trailer pulling behind me.

I sold my 2013 TJ to buy a 2017 JKU Rubicon Hard Rock.

I sold my 09 sport for a minivan. Upgraded the size of my family and needed the room. I have since regained my manhood and traded back for a 17 Rubicon.

LOL Love it!
Did you have to trade the spouse in for a newer model as well, or keep her around?

Joe C

Nah, I kept her around. I will admit though, the first time we packed the kid, all all associated baby crap, 2x 50+ lb dogs, associated dog things, and all the Christmas presents in the van for the 4 hr drive to Chicago and still had plenty of room... it was pretty awesome.

I really wanted to make a joke here about the Jeep and van both having the same engine but it was actually a Honda not Chrysler.

I have been thinking of selling my '08 because I need a pickup, (2 door, long bed). Haven't been able to bring myself to the edge of that cliff, though.

I've thought about selling my 09 JKU and getting a different model JEEP- not a wrangler but will likely keep it even though we rarely hit the trails. I've only been driving the JKU around town for the last 3 years. We were using it for out of state trips for the first few years but my wife was not comfortable in the seat that long. I sold my old 02 WJ and bought a '16 KL for her and trips. The KL is not as roomy inside but the MPG and comfort are superior. You can really pack a lot of stuff in the boxy JKU.

lol, which time - I've had so many Jeeps it's hard to think of the big #1 reason. Here's a few....
85 CJ7 - parted out and got more money to pay for the 95 YJ - lol.
95 YJ on tons - it was a wheeling only rig and wanted something better for DD. This is probably the one Jeep I wish I had back.
12 JK - traded that and my Power wagon in on a new 3/4 ton Ram and 30' TT
88 MJ - bought as project and ran out of time and room so sold it off. Was a good start with D44s and 36" swampers.
