A bit spendy, but it's not a bad deal if it's in good shape.

Financially, buying a new Sport makes perfect sense. And that’s what I was originally going to do. But I don’t like the new manual transmission. I hate the push button start and auto stop/start. And I’m not fond of the giant screen on the dash. I’m sure I sound like a luddite, but the JL lost a lot of the charm and character of the previous Wranglers (TJ, YJ, and CJ included). Which is why I’m struggling with this. It’s idiotic to spend new car money on a 9 year old Jeep, and yet

Hey, There should be left over '23s .. that will take care of the big screen. Ask your local dealer to do a locate search for a 23 left over. The link below is from Jeep.com and I selected 2023 Wrangler .. 100 miles from my zip code 86 are showing to be available.

Not sure if anyone cares, but I checked out the 2015 Willys and there were too many issues, especially for that price. The biggest issue was the dreaded "cam tick". That sealed its fate.

I'll probably just keep my Gladiator. It's a lot more practical.

Thanks for all the input!
