As long as humanly possible (or until it's so old that it's nickel and dimeing me to death) ? ? ?

I asked my two very young kids to promise not to sell it, and to not fight over it, when we’re worm food. It’s a family member.

I'll keep it as long as it is reliable! So far no issues.

Mods: Utility only, seat covers, skidpad lights, rear bumper lights. No big tires or lift.

When it gets old and parts start to fail, I’ll replace them. Jeep makes that easier than almost any manufacturer. :)

I plan on keeping it until something catastrophic fails. Looks like the NA gas engine will be gone soon and who knows how long the stick shift will be available.

How Long - Minimum 10 years, expect more like 15 years before I change vehicles. Or until such a time as my needs change

Mods - All "upgrades" are intended for longevity, keeping it as healthy as long as possible, plus towing upgrades; airbags and brake controller

Lift - No more than 1.5" leveling lift planned with the intent of never needing to modify suspension geometry

Tires - Currently stock 245/75/R17s, no plan to upsize for daily driving, might get a second set for off-road adventures

I hope to keep mine well after it’s paid off. Probably a forever truck if it’s not excessively expensive to keep it.

As long as it keeps running. I had my last truck 20 years, hopefully this will last as long. At which point I’ll be 70 and won’t care what it is after that.

My 12 year old son has already claimed my Gator in 4 years. So then I can get my 2026 Punk'n I-6 Turbo :jk: :rock:

It's going to look something like this...ha

I plan to be buried in it.

Unless I score a Wrangler before I go.

I just paid mine off and will keep it unless they come out with a Hemi version. Nothing like the V-8 growl.

I hold on to trucks for at least 7-10 years. So plan on doing the same with this one...once I get it delivered.:fingerscrossed:
