Went to a jeep dealer. They had no willys in stock. Still looked at a Sport S in rhino. I love rhino.

Sticker was 38.5k, had the freedom top, alpine stereo, the 430n (the screen), auto.

2K down 369$ a month, 10k a year.

Going to keep looking for a willys in rhino. The only thing I want is the freedom top and auto trans.

The alpine stereo was good though, but for almost 1k. Think I could piece a better sound system. And the 430n or w.e is called, the touchscreen in the jeep. Is just too dated. Aftermarket head unit with apple car play would definitely be better.

Willys :megusta:
Really the best part about that package is you get the gearing and the stronger axles. But yeah Willys + hard top + auto would be a solid car. Power windows or nah? They are an option on the Willys.

Talk about price creep, when did a sport with a couple of options become almost $40k?

You and max can sit in the camp of jeep pricing anger, but it’s been like that for about 10 years.

There is no way to track content. its just a bunch of staged pics. its like all the bad parts of facet00b. also hashtags, what do they even do? I joke with them but have no understanding of the actual purpose.

This. Pictures are fun to look at, and you can post vids and stuff. Thank God you can't post news articles or web pages or other bullshit like that.

I don’t think you can beat the alpine for 1k, however a perfectly equipped jeep is hard to find as they throw shit like the 430 at it for $1300 etc etc
Man those lease deals still suck for a non depreciating vehicle

You have to be selective ... jeep I think is trying to deplete all their parts bin so the latest jeeps are kind of all over the place.
A bare bones sport with hardtop and auto is 31k. If you add power everything and jewtooth you’re at 35k. If you :aintcare: you can get a jeep for 27/8 with a softop and roll up bs and steelies

Jku or two door ? You can have around 5k off today vs $500- 1000 msrp at best before. So regardless of msrp creep it is the cheapest time to buy a jku
