First step would be to figure out what kind of budget you're working with, then buy the newest/lowest mile example you can once you drive the different generations. A good set of A/T tires will get you through a lot of stuff, even on a base-model Sport.ATN: Long Time Wrangler Owners
Where would you start? Year/model/trim/mileage/cost>...used 2D Jeep Wrangler
1. 2nd vehicle: primary use-ranch land/grocery store runs/open air outings etc...no long trips
2. look and drive like a jeep (wrangler)
3. reliability (engine) and good paint
4. hard or soft top (primarily open air driving, except winter time)
5. after market options for a little pizzaz if recommending a stripped down bare bones wrangler.
