New 200 for a long time 80 owner

[quicktodoze]

I just brought home a new 2018 LC silver/black and couldn't be happier.

I've driven a '96 80 for 15 years and I have to say, the 5.7 is amazing. I'd prefer a little less body roll in the turns and a little stiffer rebound over speed bumps, but I'm sure that can be upgraded.

Super happy with the purchase and looking forward to many good years.

Happy New Years Mud.

Congrats!

Upgrade that suspension and you'll be a happy camper.

Thanks! I thought so too.

Just got started on the suspension threads. It's a little bewildering, a lot more than just a simple "ome stock height replacement" like the 80. I have a lot more to learn...

The basic OME stock height (or a lift) is certainly still an option, and does just fine.

About $1k, or 1.5k if you add front upper control arms.

Or you can spend all the way up to $5k+...

I'm with you - I bought a 2008 a few weeks ago. The contrast to my LX450 is pretty stark. Like two different worlds.
