wingit11 Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 Well, "She Who Must be Obeyed" finally convinced me to trade in the 2009 DJ SXT for a new 2013 DJ Crew. We are getting it in Storm Grey. Looks good but just have to wait for delivery. Having it transferred from another dealer and should arrive by middle of next week. Then I get to play with installing some accessories and polishing it up. Guess that should keep me out of the bars. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wingit11 Posted February 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 biohazardWe were considering the Pearl White but with the options SHE WHO MUST BE OBEYED wanted we had a very limited selection available. As it was we had to go to BC to find one and have it shipped to Lethbridge. I didn't think I would care for Storm Grey but after taking a closer look I found it grew on me. Today was stripping the old DJ and getting it ready for trade in. I dropped the trailer hitch and changed out the snow tires and rims and put the stock 19" chrome clad wheels back on. Now nothing left to do but wait for the new DJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wingit11 Posted February 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Congratulations on your new DJ. Our Journey is Copper Pearl Coat. I haven't seen any colour on the DJ that I didn't like lol! The only colour I don't particularly care for is the Bright Silver. If we could not find what we wanted we were going to factory order it in Copper. I really like that colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the chrome clad rims looked good on our 2009 Deep Water Blue SXT I could not get over the cheap feel to them. Something about chromed plastic just does not do it for me. Our new 2013 I think just has Aluminum rims. Will know for sure when it is delivered. I think I still prefer aluminum rims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now nothing left to do but wait for the new DJ. When I decided to get a new Journey last year, we had a 2001 Dodge Caravan in a colour called "Inferno red". I really wanted to get this colour again but alas not availabe any more. So I decided I would like the White Pearl coat. I wanted to factory order a new Journey and wanted White Pearl coat, but Mrs DoubleO7, said she would like to see the colour on a vehicle before we order. There where Journeys on the lot, but non in the White Pearl coat, so I let the Mrs select the colour that she liked from the vehicles on the lot. She selected the Storm Grey. Wouldn't have been my first choice, but I wanted to get the vehicle ordered, so I said OK. The colour has grown on me and like you, bright silver would not be a choice. Just to many of the colour around in all makes of vehicles. The Copper pearl coat would have been my alternate choice, but I got to pick the options, so I'm happy. Enjoy your new DJ when it arrives.
