One year later.... I am at:
12,700 miles
4 kids transported daily
8 trails hit
2 oil changes
10+ mods
0 regrets

Very much looking forward to a summer of trails and adventures.
Been one hell of a ride.

Over all I love the JT. It's not the mountain carver that my other cars are, but it offers a unique driving experience. It will do the trails I want to do with ease and grace. It suits my need for a daily that can cart around 4 kids. I find it very capable in the snow even with the MT tires. That being said, I am not doing 65+ in adverse conditions like my Audi. I did get the steering box replaced. This was a sound repair. The vehicle still attracts a lot of attention. The kid at the tire store was gushing over it and I had an older couple at the store asking all kinds of questions. I have even used the bed to haul things. Most recently a Hammond Organ we added to our instrument collection.
