It's depressing that a Jeep in CoFL spec is still $38k CAD without discounts

Seriously, no options, not even A/C, and it still costs more than my fully loaded Alltrack. I know it’s an apples to rocks comparison, but damn, I’m glad I wasn’t in the market for one of these.

That’s kind of a burn but also something I’ve noticed. I couldn’t configure one I’d buy for less than 30k USD (aircon is a must) but at least colors are usually free.

EDIT: Hold up I used to be able to get aircon on the base Sport model.

Not necessarily poor, but frugal I think?

Also, I don’t think not being able to afford a base Jeep is a sign of your money problem, I think it’s the other way around.

Frugal? I mean... The man has bought four new vehicles since 2014. I’ll even drop it to three and call the Cx-3 to Alltrack extenuating circumstances.

Yeah I don’t get, I can see the loaded up four doors being more money, but wasn’t the point of a Jeep supposed to be an affordable off road vehicle? I just don’t believe they are expensive to build.

He bought a Forte with no a/c, that has to count for something.

He could have bought 60% of a 15-year old Joop!

Now you know why Jeep is the only profitable part of FCA.

At this point the Wrangler is just about as expensive as a similarly equipped Grand Cherokee. I know what I’d rather have.

The price of used Wranglers is what boggles my mind .

The new ones? Those are BMWs so it makes sense, but I’m sure they aren’t worth that.

And the old ones used to be really Mini and cheap.

A bit like the FLAT 500, the name is now used for CUVs.

I think that’s negative points on  the splurge-o-meter.

Yeah a CJ2A is like a Mini for a different purpose.

We’re at the point where the cool factor has outgrown the cheap off-roader part of its appeal. FCA wants a piece of that pie, and has thus been slightly raising the Wrangler’s sticker every year since about 2015. Back then, they charged $38k for a loaded Sahara Unlimited; now  we’re here.

I like old off roaders, but I would buy a Bronco if I didn’t have to commute in my modern vehicle. I get that they like money, I suppose people should buy a side by side if they just want to mess around off road, they are about as big as a CJ2A.

I really should do a long-form about this, but I've noticed that automakers like to jack up cad prices on fun cars

J eep prices are out of control. In 2013 I bought a new Unlimited Rubicon, it was $38k OTD with a few options. I configured one identically last year and it was over $50k! Good for them getting that much for a Jeep, but they won’t ever get it from me again.
