I'm really confused why anyone would buy an Unlimited when you could just go out and buy an Xterra with so much more power and torque (and a 5-speed auto). The appeal of the Wrangler for me is in the classic Wrangler design. There truly is only one. But an Unlimited feels like a terrible compromise -- the extra weight just exacerbates the fact that the Wrangler is woefully underpowered. If I were driving an Unlimited, I would flinch every time I saw an Xterra or FJ Cruiser on the road, knowing they were so much better. Driving the normal Wrangler, I wouldn't feel that way at all.

Replying to: arizonajoe (Jan 17, 2007 1:50 pm) After seeing a newspaper ad about Jeep dealership (Liberty Jeep) in Winnemucca, NV (about 200 miles NE of Reno) I gave them a call about their 'No Secret Pricing' expecting to get the same BS about supply and demand. They told me that they will can order any Jeep from the factory or locate one from another dealer - - FOR INVOICE. They just happened to have just what I wanted on their lot. Gave them a credit card to hold it on Friday and they even drove it to me today! I have had it only a few hours but love it..... I traded in a Ford Expedition and after driving that for a couple of years, I don't find the Jeep underpowered. Would be nice to have a few extra horsepower, but I have never heard of anyone claiming that their vehicle has too much horsepower. ArizonaJoe, I can't speak to the FJ.... haven't really seen one too close up, but I owned an Xterra and thought it was the cheapest made vehicle I have ever owned. |

Replying to: mikesjeep (Jan 18, 2007 9:58 am) Like I said, I'm really pleased so far and getting a good deal on it makes me even more pleased.... glad I waited for the right deal. Also, (as someone else in this forum pointed out) there is a dealer in Hickory NC that has what they call Ebay pricing. It is Steve White Motors and they claim "the buyitnow price is invoice less rebate less up to half of the holdback". They also claim to ship for free to many states (although Nevada not being one of them). Good luck on your search! |

From the Chicago Tribune auto section today: Q. We ordered a 2007 four-door Wrangler in November and have been told there will be a longer delay in delivery. What's the problem? A. We called Jeep and, as suspected, it's a matter of demand and the inability to build it fast enough to match the number of orders--with 20,000 on backorder. |

Replying to: stevebopp (Jan 24, 2007 5:40 pm) In fact, a California spec Wrangler has an option code RCA, which is a $360 addition to the invoice price, though $0 on the MSRP. I also know of several instances where vehicles, though not Calspec, have been ordered in one state and delivered to another. Maybe I should have prefaced my original sentence with "Generally...." |
