Like Lazarus, what say you now 5jeepsaz?
Given the reference, this deserves response.. been thinking this through on a different level.

Not standing at a gate. Not watching fools pass by. Not waiting for a friend.

I posted this because I felt like FCA overuled Jeep when marketing to a global upper crust; FCA defying American bailouts sponsored by the masses of US only taxpayers who cannot afford this perfectly unique product is social bankruptcy.

Was it ever so? I guess. Still fight it where it is found.

I can only vote with my wallet. I gave the old jeep to family, for free. I did not spend over what I view as a fair price for what I want, 40K OTD, and I did pay to go resto for the same thing to me, a badass Jeep truck.

I do want a 2020. I do admire people who stepped up and got theirs. Everyone is happy.

As for Lazurus: going to hell are the ones who within this development thru launch effort could have made life better also for the lesser, at no cost, who instead chose to prioritize a lifestyle soley for the greater, but that supposition rises to another another department for ultimate resolution.

My thoughts. My opinion. Not meant to offend.

So you justified price but not value. If the gladiator cost $76,000, that would be under budget.

An 1981 scrambler cost $10500 new (base was $7300). It should have increased 182% or $29650. That's inflation...I believe.
You believe wrong
