Nice review. We have one just like it and love it. Manual windows and door locks took some getting used to. Wish Jeep had added an interior lock switch for the rear hatch. Other than that, no complaints. Thanks.
Awesome! 👍
Of course it is. May not have all the bells and whistles or an automatic sway bar disconnect etc but neither did the Jeep that helped win WW2. A Wrangler is a Wrangler!
👍
Just picked up a Willys 2 door 6 speed manual no power windows and locks with a soft top and the 3.6l love it, you can check it out.
Congratulations! I have 2010 JK, my 35s just came in
Getting my 2023 with hand crank windows, becuase thats how i want it! :)
Less to go wrong.
Technology in cars sucks nowadays.
Good thing they have them. 😀
Ditto, Willys sport.
I didn’t even see that option in the build a jeep
I just got a 2023 crank window today!! My kids love it 😅 also my kids re older and I teach them to make sure to lock it before leaving to car 💕
"Eight spreeker sound system sounds okay!! 😂 I remember my first Nissan pick up with a two speaker radio... that sounded okay.
True!
I think it's the smartest way to buy a Wrangler. Just get a plain sport model and build it the way you want.
There are definitely tons of ways to make it your own. I am finding that out first hand 👍
It’s like a blank canvas waiting to be painted on
@@Carlosmanmanman yes, with some very expensive paint lol. I am building my used JK now, I know.
Subbed because you asked so nicely lol thanks for the info
Thank you kindly lol !
I honestly wanted automatic windows I never thought I would buy a car that didn’t have power windows but after running numbers on a few I got a deal on a 2023 wrangler sport with crank windows. It was in the lot for 90 days so I got 5k off the sales price. It dropped my payment significantly. I feel like an authentic keep owner now and the crank windows don’t bother me as much now. I am training my kids to lock it immediately after leaving the car. They are actually in love with the crank windows 😭✌🏼
Haha kids like new stuff. Plus you cant lock them out of opening them lol
@@MattTheCarguy true!!!! Hahahhaa
Question 🙋🏼♀️ can you eventually add power windows after market? Is that such a thing?
I am pretty sure there are kits available for that althought it qould moat likely not be cheap.
not worth it. if you are factory ordering i recommend getting the sport BASE model and adding half doors. when you add half doors, you get power locks/windows included. then if you don't want the half doors you can sell it off and get most of what you paid leaving you with the power door locks windows full doors for barely a little extra
Manual transmission is Only available with the 3.6 Pentastar V6 Sir .
You are 100% correct. I just rewatched it and yes i misspoke. Thanks for correcting
Don't let your gas get lower than 1/4 of a tank to much. It can burn up the fuel pump.
Mine should have been burned out a long time ago lol. I am living on the edge 😅🤣
$29,995 price is for the manual transmission? Automatic transmissions add an extra $2500.
Jeep makes it more complicated than that. For 29995 (2022 model year) you get base vehicle with 3.6 Pentastar. In order to get the automatic transmission you first need to upgrade the engine to either 3.6l with Etorque ($4000) or 2.0L ($2000).
BTW for 2023 starting MSRP is 31,195
Can't get the 2.0L engine with a manual trans dude. The base is the standard 3.6L non etorque with a manual.
Of course, what i meant is that there were two upgrades as far as the powertrain.
1. Upgrade the base 2.0 to 3.6 pentastar
2. Upgrade of standard manual transmission to automatic.
May have worded it wrong.
5 yrs ago you could get a 2 door stock JK for under $24,000. let that sink in. today you are looking at dropping about $38,000. they are off their rockers
And you can still buy the 5 year old for 24K. How crazy is that?
These are 30,700. But that’s still waaaay too much. Needs a $5500 minimum Haircut in price.
@@djkenny1202 throw in auto trans and doc and delivery and see what happens. 38K bro lol
@@jgg204 it shouldn’t have a delivery fee, always negotiate that off. But yeah automatic is pretty silly. Save money, and have a better vehicle with a manual.
@@djkenny1202 you can't legally negotiate the delivery fee off the bill of sale, just like you can't negotiate the doc fee off the bill of sale. dealerships can't remove it, it would be illegal. you can, negotiate the corresponding amount off the price of the vehicle, if you're able to do so.
Another option is to buy a used Jeep Wrangler Sport S 4 Dr that is 2-3 years older and get all the bells and whistles for about the same money as a new basic 2 dr Wrangler.
Thats a good idea but it seems like they dont drop in price at all 😪
@@MattTheCarguy You’re right about that. I paid Carmax $29,988 for a 2015 Wrangler Freedom, that was low mileage and in showroom condition this past July. I priced a new 2022 Wrangler Freedom with similar options and it listed for $47,000.
@@larrys9879 its crazy. 7 years and 30% depreciation. Most cars will drop 50-60% in the same time
@@MattTheCarguy Actually, I downloaded the original sticker price for the Jeep I bought off the Jeep website. The original sticker price was $33,000 in 2015. The actual depreciation is $3000 from the original sticker price, and that was probably negligible back in 2015.
I was aware that Carmax inflates their prices, and I did a check for the Jeeps ACV and that indicated the Jeeps ACV should be around $26,000. I had a particular criteria for what I wanted. One owner, no prior damage or accident involvement, locally owner, no evidence that it had ever been off road, and all original with no modifications or upgrades, car fax report clean, and proof of servicing record.
This Jeep had all of that. I searched the internet for a couple of months looking for the right Jeep. I looked at well over 500 Jeeps from all over the country without finding what I wanted. Then one day this Jeep popped up and it happened to be at a local Carmax. What were the odds of that happening? I called them and got a hold put on Jeep. I hadn’t bought a used vehicle since the 70’s. As soon as I saw it I knew I was going to buy it.
I willingly overpaid for it because I knew the odds of me finding another Jeep that met all my criteria was slim and none. It is in showroom condition inside and out. My grandson is a mechanic and he’s helped me turn it into a parking lot Princess. We changed all the exterior lights to LED’s with halo headlight and fog lights that are connected into the turn signals. We added a brake light ring behind the rear tire, added running boards and mud guards.
It’s my toy, admittedly an expensive toy, but just a toy none the less and I love driving it.
@@larrys9879 Lol I have 2010 that I bought flooded in hurricane Ian as a project. The amount of mods available for it is incredible.
I got same with 4 door 😊
Did you do any mods?
That one would've been perfect with a stick shift.
3.6 Pentastar is available with stick.
just wondering if any jeep owners can let me know.. what do you do with your hard top( where you store it ) if you take it off? I saw a cloth top and thought it was nice looking. do I really need to hard top ?? I don't have anywhere to put it !!
I guess it depends on where you live. I have similar dilemma with my hard top. If you don't need it you can sell it but there benefits of having it. it is definitely quieter and has better insulation than soft top.
I don’t take my HT off, but the 2 most popular options are inexpensive garage ceiling pulley mounts. They work great and are inexpensive. You park your Jeep under the hardtop. This method usually requires 2 people to lift the top, but 1 person could do it. The downside is rigging the pulley system on the ceiling of the garage.
The other option is expensive costing approx $1000. Those are metal lifts on wheels. The lift is pushed under the top while it’s still on the Jeep. One person can remove the top easily. The apparatus easily lifts the top off the Jeep. The front of the Jeep easily fits under the apparatus when it’s parked in the garage. The cost of the device is it’s only negative.
I take my hard top off every chance I get. I store it in the garage.
I just bought one with a soft top because I have no place to store a hard top. I’m happy with it.
Yes 100% ❤
Its like blank canvas
The V6 is not an upgrade to the 2.0l. if anything it's the opposite
Now you can choose either for the same price. My personal choice would be the 4xe.
Overpriced even with the few upgrades. Wife’s 2022 Ford Ranger Sport 4X4 has way more, 4 doors, heated steering wheel and seats, very nice stereo, electric windows locks, can star with remote or her phone, it’s has so much more for the same price.
But its not a Wrangler 😅
Hej Matt. Jak można się z Tobą bezpośrednio skontaktować ?
Najlepiej email mattsmediallc@gmail.com
The only jeep I would buy. A loaded out 1 starts into luxury vehicle prices and this is not luxurious in any way.
This one wasnt cheap either but i hear what you are saying
More luxury more problem!
@@luke67mark yeah.... but with that mindset i would still use rotary dial phone 😀
you sir arnt the right man to represent a jeep the way you talk about it lol but I guess if your new getting into one seeing a guy like you experiencing it is a good perception to see 🤟 good video!
1: People who buy jeeps want things like roll up windows it's less tech to go wrong
2. Broncos look like trash compared to jeeps on the road people hate the look
Thank you for watching! I dont dislike jeeps, quite the opposite if you see any of my other wrangler videos I am a big fan, however spending almost 40 grand on 4 wheels and an engine is too steep. I would definitely go couple trims higher myself to get what I want lol.
this guy better be 7 feet tall or illl be pissed
You will be pissed lol, i am 6ft tall
If you like the looks and not all off road bells and whistles then why pay for something you’re not going to use. Save yourself thousands and build it as you want.
True. Wrangler can be customized in so many ways!
All they need to do is lower the price a solid 10 grand.
They may do some price adjustments but on the highest trim levels as they are over 75k. I dont see them touching the base trim.
It’s cool but that’s a lot of money for a car with no power windows, locks, or mirrors.
I agree. That should be low 30's vehicle.
$38,000 and you don’t even get power windows?? 😂😂😂
But as you can see in many comments lots of people dont mind. Its a jeep thing... lol
Facts it’s authentic ✌🏼
The automatic must have jacked it up? It’s 30k starting. Some dealers take additional $2500 off.
Not a cheap Jeep. Wasted a lot of money on automatic transmission.
I did not buy it but some people dont know or dont want to drive stick. Honestly i grew up driving only manual transmission cars. I still think they are fun but fighting big city traffic in one? Not so much.
Base engine is the 3.6 without etorque. Maybe do more than 5 minutes of research before throwing together a crap video.
If you listened to what i said you would have heard that i said it is one of the upgrades on this jeep. Keep on moving Karen
its not the cheapest. you have lots of options. clickbait
And i told you all about it in this video
@@MattTheCarguy Title does not match content. Just because you tell it is clickbait in the body of the video does not make it stop being clickbait ...wow look at you defending your sketchiness.
@@MattTheCarguy ahhh, i get it niw, you worked for dealerships for 20 years and that is where you developed your warped sense of integrity. ..it all makes sense now, just yoyr typical car salesman, lmfao,
@@miteco1 you need to get a life
@@MattTheCarguy says the slimy car salesman.
haha $38K.......insanity
they are not cheap, even the used ones are going for crazy money. highest resale value vehicle.
@@MattTheCarguy according to KBB 2023 it’s ranked 9th. Toyota seems to be the best.
@@michaeljohnson2922 could be on paper, but try buying 1 year old wrangler. Or better yet a 10 year old.
