Hey JL Fans.
I'd imagine I'm like a lot of you and transitioning from my JKU to a JLU. Should pick it up this week.
Mixed feelings -- my 2008 JKU Rubi and I have been on some great adventures together. I'm the Product Manager at Jackson Kayak and Brand Manager of Orion Coolers and adventure travel is a big part of my life and job. The JK has been on great paddling, hunting, fly fishing and overland adventures. As I prepped it for trade in this week I was getting little nostalgic for sure.
But, we have a new baby, Barrett, and the JK was getting a little dated and unreliable. We're trading it in and my wife's Cherokee Trailhawk and consolidating from 3 to 2 vehicles (I drive a RAM Rebel also). Basically the JL has all the tweaks I'd done to my JK, aside from coming with a Gobi rack.
Looking forward to the next chapter of Jeep life and new adventures with the JLU Rubi.
