Baj1106, I'm with ya dude. I'm in the market for a Wrangler and have been cruising a lot of message boards and edmunds to research the different options and to check on people's experiences with buying. As far as driving a Jeep, well, you have to understand that "it's a Jeep thing", meaning, the ride is a little to very rough for normal people's standards but is juuuust right for Jeep lovers. I can say that they are great for big city driving in a lot of ways. First off, you'll be able to parallel park it in those places that you would only frown at before. If people hit your Jeep while parked, who cares....it's not going to do any real damage, i.e. no more going to the paint shop for constant "love tap" bumper scratches. Plus, they are solid in the snow and are topless in the summer. You can't beat that.
 
As for pricing, well, I'm still learning myself. I'm wrestling with weather to buy a Sport or X type. Aside from the fact that they both have the straight six stock, I might do enough after-market additions that I'm debating weather to just get the X and do add-ons to eventually upgrade to the Sport. This way, you're putting exactly what you want on your Jeep and you can spread the costs out and probably get better deals on add-ons through other Jeepers at jeepthing.com or jeepforum.com.
 
One thing I am also doing is looking on edmunds for new '03 or '04 Wranglers because with all the '05 stock coming in....the older new ones seem to be better deals.
 
Needless to say, let me know what you find out about current deals or pricing. We seem to be in the same situation. You can reach me at jerrylauxhotmail.com.

Hey, come on over to the Jeep Wrangler message board, as tidester and mac24 (and others) suggested.
 
We have a VERY active board there, and we are always glad to "talk Jeep" and to give our opinions to prospective buyers.
 
Jlaux, one thing to consider in your choice between and X and a Sport is that you cannot get a Dana 44 rear axle in the X. For probably 90% of Jeep owners this would not matter, but if you want to someday have big tires and a locker, you really need the Dana 44.

Have you hugged your Jeep today?

LOOKING AT A 92 WRANGLER - by coylz

I am looking for a second vehicle since moving to Fl. Is a '92 Wrangler with 86,000 at the end of its life? It is well taken care of, but wonder what the future may hold for this type of vehicle. Also new tranny, brakes & exhaust...is that a red flag? Thanks!

Rebate? by nugget49

I am getting ready to pull the trigger on a new Wrangler but was thinking that I would wait and see what happened when the current $1000 rebate expires on 7/6/2004. Anyone have any insight? Obviously I am hoping that gas prices and being later in the model year will work for me, but I certainly don't want to wait and have it go down.

Rebate? / nugget49 by mac24

No one knows for sure, but bear this in mind. The previous rebate was $2000, then it dropped to $1000, and now we're coming into the 'hot' selling season for Jeeps.
 
What would your guess be?

Thanks for the input, if I could get that $2000 rebate I would be all over it. I know they now have the $1000 rebate and another $1000 if you finance through Chrysler but I want straight dollars. I think I will wait and see what happens, it has been 28 years since I bought my last Jeep ('76 CJ-5) so I can wait a few months on this one if I have to. :o)

I am in Baton Rouge, LA and having the same problem. The dealer quotes I have received are right around what Edmund's says is the MSRP, but the dealer is saying it is under invoice. Is it possible to obtain a copy of the actual dealer invoice on a vehicle?
