2017 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Hellcat 6x6 from SEMA 2018

Ultra low-mileage Wrangler six-wheeler build comes with a Hemi 6.2-liter supercharged V8 and a hefty price of admission.

You can find a lot of things on Craigslist, from free couches that maybe should be burned (because of bedbugs), to new-ish smartphones, super-old laptops running Windows 98, and film cameras needing some TLC.

And of course, Craigslist is one place to look for Jeep parts, memorabilia, and tons of Jeeps in various states of ‘ran when parked’ (our brand new JK Forum Marketplace is a better place to start, of course). How often, though, do you come across a recent SEMA Show superstar on Craigslist? That’s what The Drive discovered a while ago when they found a 2017 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 6×6 up for sale that was just at SEMA 2018.

Built by Huntington Beach, California’s Wild Boar Off Road with help from South Dakota’s Dakota Customs, the Rubicon 6×6 is powered by a Hellcat 6.2-liter supercharged V8, which TruckTrend says makes 754 horses and 675 lb-ft of torque through a stand-alone engine management system. A six-speed automatic then delivers the power to the front and rear.

The rest of this insane Wrangler Rubicon build rides upon a set of 35-inch Toyo tires, the rear set attached to a pair of Dana 44s with a Ford 9-inch pass-through. It has a five-inch lift, a custom set of wheels, carbon fiber hood scoop, and a killer leather interior.

This Wrangler Rubicon has only traveled 105 miles since it was completed, and it can’t wait to do more. All you need to make it yours is around $289,900. But hey, with that kind of mileage, an extra axle and a lot more power compared to stock, the price doesn’t seem all that bad, right?
