Plus the asking price for a 4 door Rubicon.

Plus a lift kit, bumpers, winch, and tires for said Rubicon.

Plus $15K for a Hemi swap, because you gotta know that a 3.7L minivan engine won't be able to get the resulting behemoth up to 100 KPH without a SERIOUS tailwind  ;D

But yeah...that's some serious luxury for a Jeep. I don't know if I'd want to take it on the trail though.
I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything.

Awesome machine, you can always count on Top Gear to deliver.

Hows the milage?
I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...

Sounds like a great daily driver.  Better than mine at 207 gallons per hour as we go 40mph down the tracks ;)
