New to Wayalife. I bought my JK Sport brand new from the dealer back in 2013. Still got her and about to turn over 100k miles. I feel like I been blessed with no issues other than replacing the thermostat about 2 years ago and rear brake pads last year. I was originally planning on selling her but I've grown attached over the years. Traveled across the country with her, bought in Florida then moved to California then to Hawaii (Military) and now back in Florida until I retire back to Hawaii in a month (taking her back). Never really got into wheeling other than at the beach. She's been just a fun beach and dive vehicle.

No point in getting rid of perfectly good jeep. I've neglected maintenance items over the years though (other than oil, batteries, & bulbs). This past week was the first time changing out front/rear diff fluid, transfer case, PS fluid, and flushing/bleeding the brakes, cleaned up headlights. Still gotta flush coolant, transmission fluid (manual). New Rancho RS5000X shocks and stabilizer on the way.. I'll do plugs and PCV too.

Anyways, I love my jeep. Glad I made the decision to keep her. Basic jeep, 33's, Rubicon springs w/Teraflex leveling kit, and some rusted ass bumpers.

Your Jeep looks great! If you keep your Jeep in good condition, it will likely start to appreciate in value, given the direction the world is going in right now.
 
Amazing how much a new set always makes 😁
Hoping it won't be too long before I can install aftermarket shocks on Gobilocks. Last vehicle I changed out newer stock for new aftermarket made a night & day difference.
