The 2023 model is hindered by high interest rates, above-market MSRP, a 2024 mid-cycle interior update, and upcoming 2025 powertrain changes. Even Jeep's current 15% discount on MSRP may not be enough to boost sales. However, the new inline-6 engine with 420hp should attract attention next year.
Honestly, I’d scrub the Rubicon and head to Moab. Most of the Rubicon Trail is just one boulder after another over two days of torture to your rig vs the slick rock beauty of southern Utah. Hey, I get it, it’s a bucket list trail but completing it in a semi-lifted JTR is like taking a sledge...

Anyone saying they’re a waste of money doesn’t know what they’re talking about. There are numerous computers and other electronic gremlins in new vehicles compared to vehicles from the 70s that with a little duct tape and chewing gum could be fixed in your driveway. I wouldn’t buy a new vehicle...
