  1. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    Update: Well, after all the test driving that I’ve done in the wranglers, both engines, hard top & soft top, as we were leaving a dealer we came across this gem (sorry for the old photo) & well, we scooped this up instead. JLU Wrangler will be in future, but fixing this up to be trail ready...
  2. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    :rock::rock: what year is that, 76? I think keeping the GLI and fixing up an older jeep will be my final decision! OR Get a new JLU and find an old Karmann Ghia.. Oh, decisions, decisions lol
  3. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    With all of this critical thinking, I'm wondering if buying a used JK or TJ is more appropriate than leasing a wrangler and losing out on my VW GLI fun. Of course, that raises other flags about rust, modifications, but I think owning an older JK or TJ will be more fitting for me and keeping the...

    ahhh, the good ol' soundaktor. I unplugged that and threw it as far as i could!
  5. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    I'm thinking about it :like: This weekend I have a few more appointments at other dealerships. There's a Black Sahara that's equipped with everything I want for "dealer price $43,995" Original MSRP is $46998. I'm hovering over forums that involve what expectations should be for deals...
  6. How much cheaper should leftover 18 JL models on the dealer lot be worth now?

    Don't mind me hijacking this thread, but is there anyone other recent buyers out there that can weigh in?
  7. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    Thanks! I have a few other ones to look at and then get some pricing numbers on before making the decision of ordering one or at the dealer. The 8inch radio isnt a deal breaker, but that 5inch radio is the one this wrangler has and that's something I think would stop me since my Jetta radio is...
  8. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    Thank you for this information! Yeah that does make a lot of sense and that was a good forum to read. I'm someone who takes a long time to make a final decision and not someone who swipes the card if they like it, so these forums really do help. I'm beginning to think that a custom order is what...
  9. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    That does sound good. I did "try" the numbers on a 2019, but not aggressively to get an accurate number. What I like in the 2018 for leasing is that the dealers need them gone to make room for the 2020's & with memorial day weekend coming up there is usually sales for that too. Some dealers say...
  10. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    Thank you! No, no "heavy" off-roading. I will be taking it in the woods, but nothing I don't think a stock jeep couldn't handle. This is good information though, I think the next in line is the Dana M200?
  11. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    Sorry, meant to say this WASNT an over the phone quote, meaning I sat down and talked to the salesman
  12. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    Hey everyone, so here’s the update, I went to another dealer today to get a price. I need some thoughts and opinions, mostly because I’m not sure if it’s a good deal. The only thing this wrangler doesn’t have is a bigger radio and hard top, that’s really all. I feel like it’s a good deal...
  13. Price Request: Is this a good deal?

    Hey everyone, I’m looking to get out of the VW World and into a Jeep Wrangler. Aside from all that, I’ve been searching for many months and many forums, but when it came to my turn I can’t decide if this is a deal or if this is up for debate. Here’s my current offer received: 2018 Wrangler...
  14. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    I was actually told to take a peak up in Albany at some jeep dealers, because a big lot means big savings... Or so i have heard. But, I also was told by Begnal Motors than Sahara's do not lease as good as Sport S & Rubi's. I was also informed that the LED Package CAN be added to a Sport S model...
  15. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    So, here's the update: 1. Thank you all for your opinions and help during this process. 2. Just heard back from my insurance for a new wrangler, I'll be saving over $700 a year switching to a wrangler....how? Not too sure, but i'm running with that number. Maybe because the GLI is a 'sporty'...
  16. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    I agree with you 100%. Friends of mine had R32's (04 & 08) along with vr6's & some even turbo'd, they had character, they are angry little engines that could. After that, they're pumped out of the factory with 4cylidners. Anyway, I'm believing that the Wrangler will restore that "character"...
  17. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    Yeah, that's true too. That hood does look awesome. I think my conclusion is coming to Sahara. I promised myself the next car I get will have a heated steering wheel, heated seats, great in the snow, fun in the other months, big radio screen, and amazing led lights. If the deal is right, I may...
  18. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    Hahah, ahhhh it's so true though. Modding never stops. But, thanks for this information. Which dealer did you end up going to? I'm glad a local picked up on this. I've been reaching out to Sawyer Motors, Begnal, Healey, and a few others. & yeah, I work at a real estate firm in the city of...
  19. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    Thanks Dave! That's another thing I didnt consider was taking a call on the bluetooth, something I shouldve been more prone to with roof racks on my car now. Sounds like a constant woooooooo sound lol. But yeah, I think it would be much better than worrying where to store all the pieces when I...
  20. From Volkswagens to a Wrangler?

    I think the Sahara will be the option that I choose overall. The lighting package, bigger radio screen, cold weather package, and 4wd set and forget for those wintery mornings. Thanks for the info on the tires! Sorry if i missed a post earlier on this, but what top do you have on your wrangler...
