Well, I finally made the call yesterday to trade the old girl in. She was is great condition, 105,000 miles and there was no good reason other than wanting something new. I would have preferred to buy a Land Rover, but I want to see what the new Discovery looks like in the next 18 to 24 months. The LR4 is too similar to my truck to justify the upgrade. The RR Sport doesn't wheel like the LR3 and the big RR is just not my style.
I went with a 2014 AEV JK 350 Unlimited Rubicon that I found with 5,000 miles on it. We'll see how it does in comparison. I have run some of the hardest trails in Colorado and Utah in the LR3 with a sensor rod lift and 33 inch tires... so its going to take a lot to impress me. But man, this Jeep really looks cool IMO and is totally built up and to the highest standards.
