Hi Guys

Well we sold our old JK Unlimited and where going to go for a new Grand Cherokee but I was so close to not selling the 2010 White JK we had as am a Jeep nut and poored lots of hours into it. So as we only require slightly more power / torque than we had I have opted to go for a newer JK Unlimited 2012 Black Rubicon, having the new 3.6ltr V6 with 5 speed auto rather than the old 4 speed and 3.8ltr V6. New truck is just slightly moddified :beguiled: but I am pretty sure our new 14.44-5 outback in black / white will look and pull awesome. Plus still able to go for a play once at our destination without being worried of getting stuck. Pic's old (white) and new (Black).

Ooh yeah... Looks awesome.
my father just traded his grand Cherokee in for the 2014 model. Looks like the cockpit out of a jumbo aircraft.
And for a diesel, man does it have some get up and go.

Finally got away with the van behind the new rig! Rainbow Beach is the place? Van towed awesome and the difference between the older JK and the new one is lots! Very happy with towing! At 90kph runs at 2000rpm and averages 13.5ltrs to 100. Seem a bit slow on the hills but the auto steeped down well and lots of power? I would recommend towing upto of a max 16ft! Time to sit back and enjoy the van! Everything seems to be working which is a bonus! Anyone up this way give us a shout!

Jeep Looks great, modded Rubicons always look tough. Got any pics of the van, either hitched up or otherwise? I haven't seen a balck and White OB yet - sounds good though.

That looks awesome. But there's no way I could do it. I think my expanda has a Towball of about 180kgs. With a payload of about 550kgs for the Jeep I'd struggle.

WOW what an awsome combo, looks like it could go anywhere. I tried to talk the wife into a 2 door Rubicon when she gave the company rocket back last month, ended up with a new Nissan Pulsar shigh!! She must have known I wanted to take it up to DI on weekends.
