The WK2 is up to date on maintenance, repairs, and recalls. All that is left on my agenda is restoring the headlamps and replacing the hood strut. As for the Sport, it’s just finishing up the 80,000 mile service and inspection and everything is looking c l eaner than an LDS romance novel.
There ha ve n’t been any component or electronic glitches, and honestly, the Sport has been phenomenal . We’ll see how things go over time and once I feel confident in the ownership costs and reliability, the Sport will replace the WK2 and I’ll likely be looking into a pickup by that point.

everything is looking cleaner than an LDS romance novel.
By chance would you describe your vehicles as ‘soaking in the sun’?

It’s a 2012 with the 5.7L. The build quality and trim do n’t hold up for long , but the electronics and mechanicals are solid and it’s easy to own, very reliable.

Definitely, it’s like you’re reading one of my Teddy Roosevelt fanfics.

We have a ‘ 14 5.7 a nd are overall, fairly happy with it. Mrs. Pyro hasn’t racked up as many miles as your ‘ 12...s he’s at 100k , so we’ll see how well it continues to holds up.

I’m just going to stop by Walmart and grab a kit. I’m not sweating it since they’re just housings for halogens.

“All that is left on my agenda is restoring the headlamps”
Yeah...
