Just picked up A new 2018 Sahara Unlimited. We had a 2014 Cherokee that we did manage to put on 105K miles. I have to say outside of the countless recalls and transmission and electronic issues my wife liked it. I hated it. Thank the dear lord we did buy the extended warranty.

Who is the go to guy on an extended warranty for the new JLU? I see that Chrysler's website has a 96 month 125K mile full coverage plan for $2,483.00 I found it funny that they said to buy it online to avoid the high dealer mark-up. Is this true? LOL.

How do you guys find your build dates?

Looking forward to picking it up this Wen. night.

Thanks in Advance

Back when I bought mine the go-to guy was Tom Winkels at Hayes in Michigan (Google him). That was back when we could get a lifetime warranty, not sure how everything has changed.

Open the driver’s side (passenger side for those of us with RHD) front door, the build date is on a sticker on the B pillar.

I bought mine from Clay Robbin's at www.robbinsmotors.com. Great price, and great customer service.

And as John said, the build date is on a sticker located on the drivers door jam at the door latch. At least that's where mine is.

Congrats on the new Jeep! Would you mind sharing the price you were able to negotiate? Just wondering if there are still deals to be had on the 'leftover' 2018s. Thanks!

Stickered OUT AT 48465.00 We ended up at 41900.00 plus tax reg. and a 174.00 fee. never titled 51 mile on it. What surprised me is what they gave for out Cherokee trade. 14000.00
Being a member of Sams Club did save an additional 500.00

Thank you for this info! If my math is correct, that's about 13.5% off the sticker (before taxes and fees). Personally, I would push for a bigger discount (taking the MY into consideration) but your location (NV) may have something to do with how the asking price for Jeeps in general (I'm in MD; not many off-roading opportunities here).
