We should all start new journals until AK gives us the boot. Ha ha.
Yup I knew '12's were about to arrive when I ordered mine, but considering nothing major has changed btw 11 and 12 other than no more blacked out headlight housing and better designed stereo/nav interface with larger screen, it wasn't worth passing up the $2000 year end incentive. I prefer the older headlight housing anyway, though the new nav screen is so much bigger.
On a different note, I will install Rally Armor mudflaps this weekend and I ordered a functional shark fin antenna to replace the long stock one. Check out this link:

They paint it body color for you. Haven't seen anyone with this on iwsti but thought I'd try it out. Should be getting it in 2-3 weeks.
