    Great choice, looks awesome!

    The smoother paint texture is an excellent choice.

    Yeah! Make sure you have EVERYTHING! Also, make sure you have a truck to bring all that stuff to my house (and get my tires home)!!!!

    My wheels arrive tomorrow.... If correct, I'll have them mounted and balanced by Friday.

    I have a check off list. Part comes in, open box, inspect the contents, check it off the list.

    Hahahaha. . .
    Making a heavy, lifted, large tired, non-aerodynamic brick more fuel efficient seems like a wasted effort. Kind of neat about the electric motor and crawl ratios though.

    My Salesman is now on vacation, so no Jeep until he gets back on the 18th.
    He's the only Costco sales rep, so I have to wait for him to return.
    At least that gives me time to get a couple of warranty items on the truck taken care of before I trade it in.

    Man, you're close! 11 days! I'd Cruze the lot starting Friday to see if it's there. Then I'd sneak back there and sit in it...

    Fenders are painted and ready for transport.
    Now I'm getting ready to paint the rocker guards.
