New Trailhawk owner in Ohio

Scout734 said:

Hi all!

I just picked up my black Trailhawk two days ago and I am really liking this newest Jeep! It was a tough decision between the orange and the black, but the black one had never been washed and still had packing material on it, so the paint hadn't yet been swirled and scratched by the dealer's car wash .....so I bought it and drove it home dirty. I washed it and wow does it gleam! I'm thinking I'll add some red accents to go with the ones it already has to spice it up a bit.


I traded a much loved '11 Grand Cherokee for it. I also have an '00 TJ, an '04 Liberty, and an '07 Mustang GT.

Thank you!
You will love the solar yellow... would have been my clear first choice but my '00 TJ is already solar yellow

Very nice! What Ohio dealership? I watched a Black TH get unloaded to a dealer in NE Columbus a few weeks ago.

Thanks! Jeff Wyler Eastgate in Cinci... The orange one was at Kings Automall Jeep in Mason area that's just north of Cinci. I've got a red mustang and a solar yellow wrangler so I was looking for something different... the black has the deep reflective gleam that my other vehicles don't have.

Totally understand that! I couldn't get the Red TH cause my 1991 Jeep Wrangler (Purchased New) Is Red!

The black color is awesome, I've got a 2016 in black coming in about four months myself.

Scout 734, I'm an eagle scout myself, that's why I'm getting the Trailhawk to get outside, thinking about a rear bicycle hitch, ordered the hitch package and would like to get a carrier for the canoe. You made me feel much better after I read that you own other jeeps, this is my first jeep purchase. I have owned nothing but chevy most of my life. Did you buy your jeep off the lot or special order one? I couldn't find one off the lot that was close to what I wanted. I ordered with premium trailhawk group (previously premium leather group), premium Nav and sat radio, safety and security group 1. remote start, keyless entry, with Goodyear tire choice out of five choices. Thanks so much for sharing the photos, just about fourteen weeks to go, give or take.

Scout 734, how do you like the black sticker on the hood? i tried to order one without it. on the 2015 it was optional for 150.00 but was required to purchase,what? On the 2016 it is standard, but no additional charge.

Beautiful.

You will be happy when it gets here!
I am definitely liking the black best I think.... In the Trailhawk edition anyway because of the red accents. My TJ is Solar Yellow and my Mustang is red, so black seemed to be the right fit. I wanted something dark colored that would reflect and gleam.

I bought mine off the lot... my main requirement was a black Trailhawk that the dealer hadn't washed yet and this one met that requirement. The dealers haven't a clue how to wash cars without swirling the heck out of the paint. None of my cars ever go through a car wash... I'm pretty picky about that.

I like the sticker... It definitely adds character. It's basically a matte black wide vinyl hood stripe. ...I had matte black stripes put on my Mustang GT so I'm used to them. I'm also considering adding some red hash stripes on the front fenders or some sort of pin striping to my Renegade... just to add a little more red accent. If I end up not liking it, they just peel right off.

My mustang...
