"I traded in my 2010 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X for the new 2012 Fully loaded Unlimited Rubicon. The biggest reason for the trade was the new motor. The extra 80 hp make a huge difference! Also, with navigation, heated leather seats, heated mirrors, and many other available options - I can crawl over stuff in luxury. I know many Wrangler owners believe in "bare bones" .... but I like comfort and fun. Owned for almost a year now - No Complaints!!! Love it! Thank you Jeep!!"

"This is my first Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon and I must say its one of the best vehicles I've ever owned. Gas mileage ain't so good but if you love the car, why worry about the mileage? I didn't think this car would be such a head turner but everyday I drive to my farm, heads turn, even previous heads still admire this vehicle everyday. Another thing I love is the wide range of After Market items you can actually upgrade this vehicle with, its just unlimited. Some people see me drive by and ask me if this vehicle is a new hummer, and I say no its a Rubicon, yea it looks so much like the Hummer. I recently installed cab lights on my new Rubicon and it looks so good. Many people said it was impossible but hey is there anything that's impossible? oh well I did it. When I was buying it, the dealership said it was a lil bit bumpy ride, but I don't agree, well when you on top speed. I took it offroad with my family and I was blown away,this vehicle took the river and swamp like it was walking on stones, I have never experienced anything like this in my life. My Family loves this vehicle I really love this vehicle and I am happy I got it."

"The Jeep Wrangler is an iconic vehicle. The Unlimited allows alot more space and the ride is significantly improved compared to previous Jeep. The ride is a bit more stiff secondarily to the suspension and fully boxed frame. But I feel that gives the Jeep a sturdier construction. The engine also has significantly more horsepower, 285 HP. Overall I love my Jeep and the freedom it gives me with the removable roof and removable doors. Love it!"

"The Jeep Wrangler is just awesome, especially with the top off. The only thing that would make it better is . . . a little better gas milage. Other than that . . . I love it!"

"Made the switch from an 2001 TJ Wrangler (Original owner) to a new 2012 Wrangler Unlimited. The 01 TJ was the best vehicle I've ever owned. I expect this 12 JK to be as good or better. The 12 JK has a noticable improvement in power over the old 4.0l straight six and the 3.8l V6. The interior is very modern and tough, better than any other Wrangler to date. The exterior is still recognizable as a Jeep although there are changes from the old TJ. The new Jeep is slightly larger, the windshield is slightly curved, and the 7 slot grille is slightly leaned back. Since the 4 door Unlimited has a longer wheelbase than the 2 door Wrangler, there is a slight loss in offroading performance. The extra room that it has makes up for the offroading loss in my opinion. It is roomy and will carry a lot of gear and rear passengers will have more comfort, both humans and dogs. The new Jeep is still simple to modify with thousands of bolt on aftermarket parts. The ride is nice with the extended wheelbase of the Unlimited. You definately know you are driving a vehicle with two solid axles, but I love that feeling and would not have it any other way. The Sunrider top on the 12 JK is very nice. It will fold back exposing the front and rear passengers without putting down the whole top and it does not leak. This is the first automatic transmission I have ever had in a vehicle and I have been driving for over 40 years. It is a five speed and shifts very well. I really miss the standard tranny but I expect the auto to grow on me. It seems well built, stout and should last a long time. My color of choice was the Black Forest Green Pearl. It looks black until the sun shines on the green metalflake. What an awsome color for a Wrangler! I could go on and on about how much I love the new 12 JK Wrangler Unlimited. Nicely done Jeep!"

"2012 Jeep is improved! I kept hoping a more powerful engine will be developed and this is an improvement over the 2007-2011 model engines however it still falls short of the Hemi engine that should be available. Heated seats are great! and the ride is quieter but it is still a Jeep & nothing else out there has 4 doors that you can take the Top...and doors off too to be an ultimate convertible! Try buying any rugged 4X4 at this price or buying any convertible vehicle at this price... makes you appreciate the value."
