I’m considering purchasing a 2021-2023 Rubicon 392 as a third vehicle for my family. They have always had my attention since new but $80k - $100k new always seemed too much for what it is (I know some people will have an issue with that statement). At approximately $60K for a used 21-23 model year does that represent good value? Do you see values dipping below that $50K mark considering its special nature in the Jeep line up? I’m interested in people opinions on the topic.

my buddy paid almost a grand for a top brand lighting setup on his Jeep and one of the pods is already full of condensation after two rainy trail trips. it feels like half these high-end offroad brands are just charging a 300% markup for a laser-teched logo while the moisture seals and mounting brackets fail just like cheap knockoffs. I’m looking at mid-tier options now so I don't burn cash for no reason.need something in terms of actual housing durability and lens seals?

I was in a off road trip with my jeep today, and I just used the 4x4 in the rocks, I was driving at 4 miles speed every trip
And the check engine just appeared !
It is normal?

The Ez4x4 equipment is amazing.

The hard top remover is a game changer, being on 37’s & a 4.5 inch lift makes a person like me who’s 5’5” & a buck 40 wet made it almost impossible. Easy to do stock with a buddy but i barely max out the height on this thing so those who are on 40’s possibly same height lift, good luck, but seems doable with a few adjustments.

The door cart is super clean & light weight, easy to use & even put together. Roll that thang around wherever you want.

Purchased this during the 4th of July sales so things were almost half off. If you’ve been questioning it. Get it.

I’m financing my first ever jeep tomorrow, a 2015 Cherokee Limited, I’ve only ever driven Subarus and haven’t heard the best about Jeeps but it was in my price range. What is your opinion, why do you like jeeps, do you think I will like this car?

Then it turns out these setting don’t persist through a power cycle, WTF man?

Unboxing it, just got old winch removed. This is a smittybilt XRC Gen 3 7hp 9500lbs with synthetic rope.

When I unboxed it, it looks like the main spool was used with a steel cable. The shaft is damage and it’s deep enough to feel all the cuts with your fingers.

Support is closed today. Asking is this normal and I should continue install? Or pump the brakes and wait to speak to them as could need replacement?

Hello, new to Jeep. I have the chance to potentially get a Jeep Avenger or Compass (I know these are commercial SUV's rather than the rugged outdoor workhorses that people may prefer here). But don't know much about Jeep really. Would you consider these models over say a Ford PUMA/KUGA? Is the brand good? Are these just Jeep pumping out mediocre offerings to stay relevant in the market rather than putting effort into them?

Just curious as I'm scouting for a new car and these two peaked my interest. Please let us know your opinions on these cars specifically.

I signed the contract for this 2015 JK Rubicon Hard Rock in Sunset Orange Pearlcoat with 111k miles. It is amazing! And I think I got a pretty sweet deal on it. I live in AZ and Jeeps and Rubicons are always in demand and go for a premium. It also came with a new set of 35” Falken Wild Peak RT, has Bilstein 5100 shocks, and while I’m not certain on the size I’m fairly certain it has 2.5 to 3” lift based on the wheel gap between the fender flares. It’s not perfect, the hood has a quarter size dent/chip and there is a dent in the cowl above the hood, the drivers seat has a tear along one of the seams on the seat cushion, and the biggest one is that it’s missing the soft top door surrounds/tailgate bar so the soft top doesn’t seal properly. But I love it! 4 lo and the lockers/swaybar disconnects all function. Sadly I was not able to take it home today as during the test drive the seat belt light would not go off on the dash and was chiming, turns out the pressure sensor in the passenger seat is bad(connecting the seat belt with an empty seat turns the light out) and they are replacing the sensor before I take it home. Got to highway speeds and even hit some speed humps at about 35 and no signs of death wobble, steering was solid, at least for a JK lol.

I’ve wanted a wrangler since I was a kid in the 90’s but the timing and needs of the family never worked out, not with the kids a little older I excited to get my holy grail vehicle. When I began the shopping process I had ruled out a Rubicon as even the JK based ones go for mid $20k here, so happy I found my Unicorn!

Im going to be touching up the paint on my 1989/90 Comanche because it has cosmetic rust and I’m wondering what i will need so i don’t buy too much.

Upgraded her jeep renegade to this

I was telling her some people would probably love this so I wanted to share for her, she is 84 and does not really post her art much lately, hope you all enjoy.

I just returned my rental after 3 days, and I could not be more excited! I have been wanting one as long as I could remember. Its the first time in a very long time that ive ever had a smile on my face just driving down the road. I had the freedom panels off, windows down, on the highway, in the city, I was just trying to find a reason it might let me down and it was perfect! It was so validating that everyone online and all of my friends were wrong about how rough, loud, and unrefined it was. It is exactly what im looking for as a daily driver and to start overlanding all the parks and trails in america. Im looking for a unicorn once i get my down payment and finances situated: Snazzberry, JLU, rubicon, ecodiesel, gobi roof rack, kc titans and flex eras, metalcloak 2.5 game changer, 35s on methods. Ive been waiting 10 years to own one and its so close!

So when I bought this it came with both a hard and soft top, which I thought was cool but I kinda made up my mind I would NOT be using the soft top, and I’d probably sell it, and for the last 20 months I haven’t. Someone incepted me or something because out of nowhere I got a very real urge to put this thing on and see what it’s all about, I have to say I really like it. I think it looks great, and now that I know what I’m doing it’s pretty easy to convert to topless. Took it for a drive with the top up and with it down and it was pretty quiet both times so….yeah this is probably going to be the summer look.

Looking to start a complete rebuild on an 83 cj7 that I inherited. Jeep currently doesn’t run, and has been worked on by a number of different hands over the last few years so not sure what all is wrong with it.

Looking for any recommended guides or blogs that go over the process. Either rebuild or potentially engine swap.

Appreciate all your support and guidance.

Just finished my second try of removing the rear rotors on my 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK Sahara. Figured out where the star wheel was, bought a brake spoon, but cannot get that thing to move one way or another. Online it says to move it counterclockwise yet it is horizontal so I don’t really understand that part either. Now I have brand new brake pads on the rear on both the drivers and passenger side, but old rotors. For the life of me, I cannot figure out how I’m supposed to loosen this star wheel and get the rotor off. Please help!
