We would know! LolI built this JLU on the Jeep site for $33,605. Sport, manual trans, hardtop, up-rated rear axle, block heater, floor mats. (Add $2000 for auto trans.)
Find a deal on choice of aftermarket wheels/tires and you will have a lot of fun in this vehicle, it will take most people wherever they want to go in top/doors off style.
For those who want Rubicon but have little use for the main Rubicon features, some enterprising person should start selling "Rubicon" hood stickers, would make a fortune.

With the Wrangler you are getting the most capable off road vehicle available today, a claim that neither Volvo or Porsche can make...and by the way you can take the top, doors and windshield off...which no other manufacturer can claim. To some people this is worth the price of admission.
Well said, not to mention my new order has all the things that I would had to buy after the fact on JK I. E. Better lighting, better tires, better touch screen, better better better!We are buying a JLUR as a 3rd car. Our primary goal is to have a convertible that is upright/tall, has a powerful engine, and is SAFE. Believe it or not, but our other possible choice was a convertible Vette. The Vette fails because it's low and unsafe. We live at the beach in SoCal, in a land of raised trucks and hot cars. There's seems to be a major accident at least once a week, primary due to speed, but also poor visibility.
I don't think we'll ever take the Rubi off road - other than maybe some gravel fire roads - so it's primary just a goof. But, the Rubi will have a much superior re-sale value, we plan on keeping it forever, and it will be garaged 24/7. In fact, not only are we not getting a hard top, but I plan on keeping the soft top stored down. (We will cover the Jeep with a tarp that can be easily/quickly whipped off when driven.)
If I were in the market for a DD, I'd be looking at either a Honda or Toyota. Both mfgs came out with new, hopped up vehicles for 2018. Either brand can provide AWD. If you need a more capable 4WD, Subi is of course setting sales records.
The point is, Jeep is a great choice under certain conditions. For decades, it provided a fun, moderately priced vehicle that had some personality and could go off-road. However, times change, and obviously FCA has targeted a higher premium market segment ie me. But that doesn't mean there aren't other options - you just have to be open minded.
I've mentioned performance and engine HP before - I highly advise others to test drive some of these vehicles if Jeep isn't an absolute must have. I think many will be blown away at just how fast, quiet and solid they are.
I think that the only current color that it would look good with was Firecracker Red. Btw The red on all the pics, YouTube etc. Looks far more deep than the current Firecracker on the JK's.What is everyones thoughts on the heritage tan interior? I feel like tan can range from beautiful to puke awful, and can't decide where in the range this falls.
Not sure what you mean, but IN Rubicon, black leather gets red dash accents, tan leather gets silver dash I believe. Stiching on tan leather.... I'm not sure.Black. With red accents.
Granite Crystal looks fantastic with the red dash.I think that the only current color that it would look good with was Firecracker Red. Btw The red on all the pics, YouTube etc. Looks far more deep than the current Firecracker on the JK's.
I sat in one at the LA show and it had nav,Does Uconnect 7.0 have navigation? It doesn't list it, but the picture shows maps.
