Default Wrangler fans?

Ever since I ordered a 2017 Sahara 2 door been seeing Wranglers everywhere I look. Most likely they were there before, just didn't notice them until I ordered one, lol.
Anyhow, how many of the Corvette crowd also own one? Photos would be nice.
My 2017 was ordered as follows: Firecracker red, hardtop, automatic, 3:73's, anti slip rear axle, connectivity, premium leather and sound.

I felt very fortunate to have finally wrangled me a Corvette. That after wanting one for years and years.

Stole this 2007 Wrangler Sahara in 2011 for $24,500. Had it nearly 3 years and drove it just a pathetic 2,700 miles. Of those 2,700 miles, was driving it from about 1,700 miles from Tacoma, WA down to Tucson, AZ. Had it another year and put maybe 300 miles on it. Since I never drove it, the low mileage increased the Blue Book value above $26,500.

I couldn't even sell this damn Jeep for $22,000 in one year's time. Took it over to a local Jeep dealership and told them to take this off my hands.

Dumped it for $18,500.

I don't even know why I even bought a Jeep to begin with. Oh wait.....because it looked so bad-***!!

The second photo is after 8 hours of sweat detailing the **** out of it. So much, it looked like wet glass and the dealership thought it was a 2013/2014 when I took it in.

I was not sad to let it go one bit, but I was disappointed I could even sell it in a 12 month period for $4,500 below Blue Book!!

I completely understand. I build a beautiful 2006 LJ and after it was complete I hated driving it any distance. I sold it and built my first JKU and have been in love with them since. A COMPLETELY different machine. I have since moved into a built Hemi Commander because I needed more towing capacity.
