Good buy!
Oddly enough, I find my JKU to have a better seating position and to be more comfortable driving longer distances than my JLU. The two seating positions/ergonomics are night and day. I can stretch my legs out a little better in my JKU.
The JLU feels a little smaller. It's not cramped at all, just more snug.

I noticed same thing between my wife's JL an my JKU.

19 JL WRANGLER (Bikini Blue)
 
^^ Having driven my JL approx 6hrs to western PA, I can say I prefer the front seats in the JKs. I like the way the JL seats look, but imo they’re not as comfortable for long trips.

Tires or possibly a Trek Top NX glide? Color suggestions on the top? Gray, Red Pepper, Black Twill?

Tires are a definite at some point, obviously... In time I would like to do highline fenders (Mopar's, or maybe MCE... I'm open to suggestions) 35's, King O.E. 0 -2" shocks, Warn, bread locks, drive shafts, possibly an Evo leveling spring/spacer kit. I remember really liking the idea of some of JKS's high end control arms when I had the TJ.

I like the LCG & big tire setups. I really think that sort of setup, with money in the right places, can do a ton of trails and be a well mannered DD.

I'm honestly just enjoying the hell out of this thing! I would be really happy to be able to do some bucket list trails, and just keep using it as a DD. I can take my dogs to the park again and not stress out about it. Or, worry just driving down a gravel road. Just simple things like that.
