Cause every rich soccer mom out there buys it to haul around their crotch fruit. Thus making the price go up.

And then dealers know people will buy the Rubi b/c....Rubi! and load it up with all the options they can. I ordered mine. JKUR...literally no options but the Rubi package, 6 speed, soft top. Done. If you want a good all around package, OP, look at the Willys as well. Good offroad package for the price if you can get past the front black oplique. Also look at ordering if the window for that hasn't closed yet and you've got 6-8 weeks to kill. |

However a base sport 2 door is around 24k sticker price. Might be an easier pill to swallow and gives you a blank canvas of sorts to build how you'd like. |

leases on Wranglers? With how well they hold value...crazy talk. We just leased a 2016 JKU Sahara. Because they hold their value so well, you can get a great deal on the lease. We'll probably buy it when the lease runs out, unless I can talk the dear wife into a Rubicon. It's her daily driver. Quoted:

Buy a TJ or YJ, Ive never seen so many poser strokes wannabe off road douchebags driving these POS. Oversized shitboxes with a real douche community of drivers in those JKs. The typical driver has some poser black off road looking rims and a cheap ass suspension, maybe even a winch thats brand new and never used to complete the look of total pussified dick smoker. These people make me sick, dice their balls off.
This is real shit real, Upper Hellldorado.

Don't pay sticker for it. And as long as we are on that subject, never pay more than 1% under invoice. Just by using the Tread lightly program you are guaranteed at least that good of a deal.
And why should you buy a Rubicon? 
Because this is fun. |
