    Since the Glad isn't out yet, I'm guessing some of you (like myself) are cross shopping more than one vehicle.

    What alternatives are you looking at? A Raptor, Power Wagon, Wrangler Unlimited, something else?

    For me it will either be the JG or the new Defender, obviously depending on what that looks like when it gets released and what the specs will be.

    Why did you want to go from a Raptor to a Defender, for better off roading? Are you wanting to get out of the Raptor before it loses more value or are you a guy that loves changing it up within a few years?

    My daughter whats a JL so I might be looking at a lower end one for her.

    It's called Automotive Attention Deficit Disorder, and one day it will be recognized by both the American Psychiatric Association and my insurance company. :(

    21 vehicles (and counting) in 36 years... AADD, maybe. Awesome, definitely! :henry:

    I should say that five of those were buy-fix-sell TJ's...
