So today i got to meet up with nate, "gravediggerfreak" and his brand new '08 Liberty KK. We went wheeling right behind Buckley AFB, its a field with some trails and a huge ravine that you cross through. Its basically a big playground that looks more challenging after a rain storm, some of the little trails were torn up pretty bad from where it looks like people bit off a little more than they could chew after a rain storm. It was a great time to meet a new guy thats right here in my back yard and observe a new KK in action.
Nothings changed from the old to new except of course body style. Both retain the 8 inches or so of wheel articulation however i think the reviews have confirmed that the KK is slung lower to the cement, but not a significant amount. The spare that is now stored on the underside of the vehicle is well tucked away and it dosent look like there will be any problems with it hitting things, in fact its better tucked away than the KJ's fuel tank. The ESP in the KK is loud, you know when its working; it makes an electro-mechanical buzzing when in action. The interior is much better over the KJ although i like my window switches on the console. Everything is very upscale looking and more on-par with japanese rivals than the KJ is, i didnt get a chance to touch any buttons or feel how switchgear works... didnt want to overstay my welcome. I like it better than the KJ, it looks better in my oppinion. If the opporotunity comes and i can keep payments around the same as they are now, I'd highly consider trading up!
Ok Ok, now to the pictures!
and to think i wasted all that time not watching the broncos..
