The Jeep Wrangler is a car that bills itself on its fearless character. Jeep has sought to portray the car as the ultimate vehicle for adventure seekers who love exploring the uncharted path. This has proven to be more than marketing talk, for the Wrangler has proven a reliable off road winner. Its ability to drive through bush, rocky terrain, ice, and other unsavory weather conditions makes it a phenomenal car.
Unlike other SUVs that might pride themselves on their speed or size, the Wrangler is not a car for everyone. To learn more about this tough SUV and why you might want one, read on below.
Origins of the Jeep Wrangler
Behind the Wrangler stands a history that goes back to the Second World War. While the Wrangler was not in existence at that time, there in the annals of war history, you can find its direct predecessors. The original Jeep was a military utility vehicle used by the US Army to move manpower reliably in the war theater.
The Jeep was such a successful and reliable vehicle that, after the war, demand for its four wheel drive technology soared among civilian buyers. The Wrangler was the eventual result of successive innovations to make a Jeep suited for recreational use.
Jeep Moab - Best Overall Jeep Wrangler
With multiple Jeep Wrangler models to choose from, Jeep shoppers are spoilt for selection. This can make it tricky knowing which Wrangler is right for you. There is little doubt, however, that the Jeep Wrangler Moab is the ultimate vehicle in the lineup. It's best for those who want the latest and most complete Jeep technology updates. The 2019 Wrangler Moab features a V6 engine is capable of 285 hp. Exclusive features include Selec Trac 4X4 driving system, leather trim interior, and Jeep Performance Parts Rock Rails.
Wrangler Rubicon - Best for Off Road Enthusiasts
The Wrangler Rubicon model stands out from the other vehicles in the Wrangler lineup due to its suitability for off road activities. This model is named after the Rubicon off road trail in California, a tough trail whose challenge the Wrangler makes its home. With a 285 hp V6 cylinder engine, six-speed manual transmission, and 33-inch BF Goodrich K02, it's ready made for adventure. The Rubicon starts at between $38,000 and $40,000. Optional upgrades will cost extra.
Wrangler Sport - Budget-Friendly Wrangler
While Wrangler models are not cheap, for those looking to save some money, the Wrangler Sport is the best option. This model is available starting at between $28,000 and $29,000. It takes a minimalistic approach that sticks to the history of Jeeps in general, but is available in both a two-door and a four-door model. It comes with 17 inch by 7.5 inch wheels that are styled in black steel. The model comes with a 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine for sporting performance.
Jeep Sahara - Best for Family Outings
With sitting room for five and enhanced ride comfort features, the Wrangler Sahara model is a natural fit for families. Not only does it fit more people than other Wrangler variants, but it departs from typical Wrangler design by adding more creature comforts. The Sahara has 18 inch polished aluminum wheels, a 2.0L direct injection turbo engine for improved city commute gas efficiency, and Selec-Trac four by four system. Its Sky-One Power Top is retractable. At the push of a button you can remove it and be able to see the sky or stand up out of the car for sightseeing.
Buying a Jeep Wrangler
There are Jeep dealerships right around the country where you can purchase your Wrangler. If you are purchasing used, there are even more buying options, from scouting owners in your area looking to sell, to checking sites like Craigslist.
There are several good reasons to buy used. First, if you are going on off-road adventures, you might not want or need the extra burden of doing that in a brand new car. A used car will cost you less and it is easier to justify the beating it will take in the outdoors.
The real advantage of owning a Wrangler, however, is that it's a long-lived car that will take just about anything you throw at it.
