Hello! I'm a new member here. At the end of the month I should be a proud and terribly excited owner of a 2013 Sahara Unlimited. I'm currently the struggling and pavement-trapped owner of a 2010 Civic Coupe. Bad call, ladies and gentlemen, bad call. My 100lbs GSD does not fit all that well in the back seat of my car. And his little brother (planned litter by breeder in the fall) will be the straw the breaks the camel-car's back.
So the long and short of it is.... what are the true costs of ownership for a JK? We don't drive all that much, both of our workplaces are on an LRT line. We do, however, spend most weekends in the mountains (well, the last year has been mostly park camping). What do you guys find costs you the most money? We plan for a few (seriously not many if I can control myself) little things after, like seat covers and a way to keep the doggies in, and likely hardtop insulation for our Canadian winters.
