That saddle brown is quite nice.
Count me JEALOUS
Ha!
In all fairness the sportbrake was a lower payment than what one of the gas variants of these wranglers cost.
I agreeā¦I would have chosen saddle on the build but my daughter liked black better. I think it must be the āold personā thing mentioned in one of the other Wrangler threads
Im also unsure of whether I like the body color hardtop or the black hard top. The body color looks more āposhāā¦almost G wagen-ish? But, the black gives way more contrast, esp with a white body color.
My daughter chose black for the hardtop.
The saddle does sort of scream - āhi, Iām over the age of 40ā
I remember years ago how terrible these Wranglers were. People who even bought them , regretted them and traded/sold them in after a month or two.
Terrible road/wind noise, rough riding, no legroom space and some of these things didnāt even have a radio in them. They were so bare bones. Total niche vehicle. Yeah they looked cool on Baywatch with Pam Anderson hanging out the back etc but the reality is these things will never see the beach or hang off the edge of a cliff etc.
Fast forward to 2021, Iām guessing Chrysler did something with the road/wind noise, added 8.4ā U connect, LED everything , 20ā bling blingers and now included a hybrid engine.
Look, Iām not crazy over these, but Iād rock one for under 400 bucks a month effective. Pull the doors off and roll with my left leg up on the dash
My wife was all about the body color hardtop. I do like the look as well. Functionally, probably would have been smarter to get the 1 touch sky top.
I agreeā¦my vote was sky top too! Was happy to spend the $ for the option, but my daughter kiboshed it.
Iām surprised by how popular these Wranglers are with people who can afford appealing vehicles.
We rented a Wrangler in Vieques a few years ago and it was awful to drive, even for short periods of time.
Separately, after about two hours I hated Vieques too.
If you havenāt been there, Vieques is Spanish for āhorse toilet.ā
If you have been there, youāll get the joke.
They are literally everywhere in Florida, I didnāt get it either to be honest. At this price point I would generally choose something else, but for 300 and something bucks a month I can bite.
My parents have some friends who buy one of these for each of their grandchildren as high school graduation presents.
I understand āCool, free car!ā but thatās about it.
They are absolutely hugely popular with the teenager, 20 something crowd. Honestly, I think it is a status symbol of sorts.
I think the date all the way back to the 90s! If anyone remembers the movie cluelessš
Iāve hat 2018 JL factory built when it just came out. And Iām here to tell you that most of you baby powder bottoms will regret the purchase once the hype fades.
Walmart is having a sale on the stuff, Iāll go out and buy a case of it proactively today!
Unlikely needed for the 4XEās weāre looking at compared to the POS rentals. Iām a bit more concerned about fast charging setup.
I think it really boils down to what you want. My wife and I share a car and the lease matures in June. We just bought a fixer condo and will need something with a little extra storage space during our many trips to Home Depot.
When I look at other SUVs, I canāt think of any others more interesting than the Jeep at the current price point. More comfortable, faster, better equipped? Probably. More interesting or fun and can you take the top off for a day trip to the desert? Nope.
Iām so glad I got the dark saddle.
Can you pm me your contact. Looking for this car.
Thatās a great deal - which dealer?
