Why not try an online search tool like AutoTrader.com or Cars.com? Many of these allow you to narrow down the selection by equipment, package and even within a set radius of your location.

I'm pretty sure they have one here at Janzens Jeep. I see them all the time though here and I live in a small town. I would use the online search engines, or talk to a dealer - they can search other dealers inventory and will usually work with you.

That'd be the issue you'd run into shopping for a late model Rubi. Since Wranglers hold their resale value relatively good compared to other vehicles, and combine that with the fact that Jeep is offering Employee Pricing Plus+ right now, you'll see that for a low mileage, late model Rubi, you'll end up spending close to that of what a new one would go for after rebates and EP. If you're looking for a 2007 or newer, may as well spend a little more and get a new one? JMO.

Another vote for a new one. Heck, I was looking at 2005 TJ's and walked out of a dealership that wouldn't budge below 16.5k for a 4 year old used Rubi. I ordered my new one that night!

I looked on Autotrader....The one you found was by far the cheapest I've seen..It's weird, i tried a search on Cars.com and it only came up with 09's even when I expanded the search criteria...
