New Jeep for Lando

[Landon]

Okay gang, just a quick preview. As some of you already know, I am supposed to be taking delivery of a new '05 Rubicon later today /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif It is going to be that new impact orange color, 6 speed manual with a soft top. Jeep has some great deals running right now, and I was able to get both a good deal on the price of the Rubi and on my trade in TJ. When I get the new one home, I will take some pictures and get'em posted. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tu.gif

P.S. Yes, I will be taking the new one to TB this weekend /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dance.gif

Now, I need to remove those front bumperettes, get my itsaJeep sticker on the rear bumper and get my CB in... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tu.gif

So is it a No or a Yes to Friday? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Kewl! Just keep us posted. Dave is still working out on permission so it may turn out to a hole bunch of nothin'.

[Dave Taylor]

I got permission from the owner today; they said no problem...we just need to print-off the release form from their website and sign it; pay our $5 fee; and we can wheel all day!

Sweet Jeep, Landon.

[JeepTales]

Do you need me to send you a www.JeepTales.com (http://www.JeepTales.com) window sticker for your new baby? 2" x 20" in bright yellow font.

[Teddy]

Very nice! Love that color. Now all she needs is a lift, sliders, big tires, CB and .. and ..... Muuhhhhhhaaaaaaa!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/woot.gif

Let the fun begin /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[mikea]

Awsome Landon!! Even though they didn't have Yellow and you had to settle for orange /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif It's a great lookin jeep!

What was the line from the movie Diggstown "Better a limp color then a limp model" /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Landon, Congrats on the New Rubi... I love Yellow Rubis and that new orange is Kool!! My customer's are telling me that Dealers are giving their best price quotes to everyone who walks thru door. I never thought I would see Dealers discounting the sticker by 33%... I haven't talked to anyone who purchased a Jeep, but I can tell you that Dealers are making this kind of deals on Chevy's and Ford's on a daily basis. Just shows how much profit are really in these vehicles.

Great Deal Lando!!!! It looks very nice, and nice overvoiew shots, too. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tu.gif (Im guessing you were on the roof /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif )

[Dave Taylor]

Well have to get you a white U.T. Vols emblem to drape across that Big Orange hood!

[Landon]

Thanks for all the comments folks. No Patrick, not the roof. Those previous pics were taken from my back porch. Mike, they had tons of yeller rubi's, but why would I want to copy you, right? Anyhow, I had to get an orange Jeep to match my orange Jeep hat that I already owned, as referenced by this pic:

She's ready for wheelin' this weekend now. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tu.gif

[gmbtj]

so does that antenna mount rattle around like it did on your previous Jeep?

[Landon]

Nope...its alot tighter....anyhow, it didn't "rattle" around as you say...it flexed, but no rattles, you turkey. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dance.gif
