picked up my Rubi yesterday.. wow ! I know now what I have been missing

well I had reported back last week that I bought a new, red rubicon auto.. that deal fell through at the last minute. so this past weekend, while at my sister in law's we went to check out a Kahki colored rubi just out of town. This one is an '03, has soft top, 7 speaker sound, air, manual, 1/2 doors and that's it. This one was gently used for 3000 miles. It was owned prior by a Jeep employee's wife. I ended up getting it for $22,700. Pretty much right at KBB price. Still has the new car smell too. It had been titled since Dec '02 built Nov '02

This deal went through pretty quickly. .. and to my suprise, my credit union gave me a whole point lower interest rate..Whoo hoo !!

I am loving this rubi .. my first Jeep !! God, I know now what I have been missing.

Can I somehow register my name and VIN with Chrysler or whomever so they know I too own a Jeep now? I want to be kept in the loop on special offers, Jamborees etc..

anything I need to know specifically about these Rubis ?

Congrats on the "second" Rubi. That Khaki is probably the most popular color of '03. Get rid of the new car smell by taking off the top and leaving it off! :)

Read your owner's manual > well I had reported back last week that I bought a new, red rubicon auto..

Congrats! Assuming you got the owner's manual that should have come with it, there's a card in the warranty booklet for change of ownership / address. You can also call the DC customer center at (800) 992-1997. They'll take all your info and put you in the system.

DC has got your number already. The salesman sent it in.

Better than waiting for DC to send you invites, you should locate a Jeep club in your area and hang out with them.

Congrats.

Never seen a link on

for registering for jamborees etc. Don't mean there hain't one tho.

Two good links off

One is the "Go 4x4 It" and the other is the "For Owners". Pick yourself up the Factory Service Manual. Even if you never touch a wrench, it will be the best investment you ever made, and if you *do* wrench on it, the thing will pay for itself in one repair.

You can also get the "build order" for your vehicle by sending the VIN to DC customer service, or go to most good dealers for the same info...complete list of everything that was on it at the factory.

One thing to consider...Jamborees are a great (albiet expensive) way to discover the capablities of your Jeep. I would suggest looking into a local 4x4 club as well.

Special offers on what? This forum is probably the best place anywhere to find real-world advice on Jeeps, if you can wade through the bulls*t :-)

Welcome to the fold...

boy, isn't that the truth!!

In any case, enjoy your rubi. They're awesome. (should I have written, "there awesome" or "their awesome" instead, just to keep in line with the NG standards?)

well I wouldnt think DC would have my specific new Jeep owner info. I bought this off a used lot.. it has 3400 miles and has been titled for 9 months.

I called the Jeep magazine people and they have forwarded on my info. I just want to be kept in the loop from their end. I hoping by doing this, they can send me info when necessary

Lon. I have the orig sticker with it. I shows all options as it was ordered. I am still somewhat uneasy about making a car payment though. : \

I'm sorry, I understood that you bought it from a DC dealer's Used Car lot.

Go to your local stealership, they can load you into the database from the parts department.
