What's the best price you got for a JK?

I don't think prices will drop on JK. Sure, every other model we've had over the years has seen the RRPs drop steadily as the model ages, but JK is altogether different. Can you name any viable competitors that come within $10k of this car? Even the H3 Hummer, built in South Africa on very old, very basic Chevy Colorado mechanicals is nearly 50% more expensive than a JK ! If GM was serious about the H3, I would have expected to be here for absolutely no more than $39990.

Dealer margins are almost non-existant ( a very sore point with me after having our TJ margins slashed for two years ) too.

Order the JK of your dreams now, sell your TJ privately asap before too many get on the used car market.

I agree with Salesguy. I'd be selling the TJ now (if I had one - sold mine over a year ago).

Once the JK's hit the road in numbers, I think the general punter will be more interested in getting the new model rather than an old TJ. In short it'll become tougher to offload a TJ once the profile of the JK increases.
