I sold my Wrangler and bought a Tacoma. Best decision I’ve ever made. That includes marry my wife.

Yeah, my girlfriend bought a Rubicon for $41k over a year ago, and now I've seen the same ones going for upper $40s

Paid $52k for a 2018 Ram 2500 Limited. Now worth $65k

Might be the first time in history cars/trucks are appreciating in value.

Tacoma and bronco were my other choices, but after much thought I stuck with a jeep product

I could get 10k more for my 4 year old cummins than I paid for it, you made a poor investment

Yeah, driving a vehicle for basically free for 5 years is a bad decision

Now you get to buy a new vehicle for $20k more than what you got for the Jeep


He could go lease the 4xe and sell it for 5-10k profit as soon as it comes in.

I paid 25k for my Jeep a little over 10 years ago, it’s still worth 17-18k.

Says the guy who has probably never owned a wrangler or gladiator.

My 16 rubicon had very little issues when I traded it in on my gladiator rubicon. Wrangler had over 100k on the clock and I got 27k trade last year when you still got deals on new vehicles.

Wrangler road pretty good especially after life and tired. Gladiator has a much better ride than the wrangler.

Traded in my ‘20 3.6 Gladiator after 20 months and 50k miles for the ‘21 diesel. Same amount still owed, lower note (including new lifetime b2b warranty).

I’ve owned two wranglers, didn’t learn my lesson the first time. Out of the 16 vehicles I’ve owned in my life nothing else required as many repairs and it wasn’t even close, even worse than a Volvo. The road noise in the Gladiator is like being in a giant blender, no thanks.
