Buying a gladiator in two weeks, still cant decide on the trim package ... Thoughts?

I went with the Willys sport. It has rubi supension, rubi rock guards,painted fenders and limited slip rear. I orderd mine with manual transmission,manual rollup windows,soft top, bedliner and electic accessory panel, I saved at least 20,000 dollars on anything on the lot...love it!

My plan was to order a Willys Sport and I still feel that is the one that is the best deal. I went to the dealer and fell in love with the Mojave in the Gecko green. I think that you will love any of the trim levels. I certainly love the Mojave but would like to have spent a little less, I did however get a good deal on it because it was a hold over 21' and got it for less than MSRP.

Also from NH...Plymouth area. Love your JT! I went the same route....Willys Sport, manual windows, manual door locks, soft top, tow package, aux switches but I did opt fot the auto so I can tow a trailer. I ordered mine so $38k. I also have the Sarge Green! Our Jeeps are almost twins. Your bumper though...talk to me. Is that the Rubicon bumper or did I miss the memo about attaching a winch and hoop?

I havent owned a Jeep before and to be truthful, I havent owned a car in 10 years. Cost is not a concern. I will seldom take it off road and probably wont haul anything but my road bikes. That said, I like the slightly bigger tires (not the huge mudders), love the vented hood, and the coated bed ... but feel like the way it drives on the Highway is going to be the biggest factor to my satisfaction. That said. I would welcome any advice and comments?
- Configurations
- Negotiation (even though cost isnt a concern, I dont want to pay too much)
- Things to ask as part of the deal ????


THanks in advance!

If you want larger tires out of the gate, a vented hood, a smooth highway ride, and money is not a major concern... it sounds like you're describing the Mojave. A spray-in bedliner can be added to any trim level

I went with a semi-loaded Sport S diesel. I got the cloth interior and upgraded with Katzkins. I have the same gear ratio as a Rubicon, but no stickers or lockers. I paid $52k for the Jeep and another $1900 for the leather seats. I still need to buy steps, bumper, winch, lift, tires, etc.....
The only thing I will lack from a Rubicon will be the lockers and lower xfer case. I can add on board air and air lockers someday.

One of the best looking jeeps out there. Great photo doesn't hurt. Clean CB antenna install (deleted stock AM/FM or went with a stubby?) My Jeep is jealous of your Jeep's manual roll-up windows but I wanted the Rubi so I don't think it was an option. Your whole build and look is subtle yet still stands out, yet not overdone. Congrats.

Thank you! CB mount from Walcott Radio. I still have the standard am/fm antenna on the other side. Background of photo is beautiful Lake Chocorua at the base of the white mountains.
