Watch This Before You Buy A New Jeep Wrangler! TFL Expert Buyer's Guide 

Good synopsis......thank you very much.

You just simply buy cars you can afford. Jeep wranglers are good looking toys, they don’t loose value as much as other light trucks do. Especially, if you made modifications to it. You can buy faster cars, but with a Jeep you can’t get to where the Wrangler will. Amazing for the beach, a monster in the snow, made for the mud.

Thank you Tommy: job well done. You are always so enthusiastic and very well spoken. You are knowledgeable and very good at explaining features and benefits. You have done a great job picking up the reins from your dad. I always enjoy your blogs. Stay healthy and please keep on blogging.

"They're too easy to be pulled out; they can be stolen." Best part XD

Looking at purchasing a Wrangler later this year. You've answered a lot of my questions. Thanks !!!

I rented the Unlimited with 2.0t and the drivetrain was very impressive. I got over 25 mpg from Asheville to Hiawassee. The low end torque was really impressive in the mountains.

I needed this video!!! Brings so much clarity between all of the confusing options!

This video has been so helpful! The options are overwhelming and I didn’t realize just how many options have to be added on. I love the wrangler and hope to one day own one but looks like it’s gonna have to wait so I can truly get all the features I want

So far this video is one of the best on Jeep Wrangler.✌👍🚙

WOW thank you so much. I am on the market for a new Wrangler and felt a little lost looking at the site. I appreciate the effort it helped me out!

Tommy, this video was very helpful. I particularly liked the parts about the Willy’s Edition.

I'm with Tommy on the Willys being the play in the current lineup. Small price premium over the Sport, good tires, diff, rock rails, and I don't have to deal with moving TPMS sensors, speedo calibration, or having five tiny steel wheels and tires in my garage gathering dust.

Thank you! This vid helped me in figuring out which Wrangler I want. You guys do such an excellent job on the vids it's by far the best.

A month ago I would have agreed with you on the tops assessment, but I happened to have a good look at the one-touch top over the week-end am now hooked on the idea of it. Fantastic video, by the way.

Great advice. I just bought the 2020 Jl Sport S 2-door. I got the technology package with the 7in screen as recommended.

Thank you Tommy... Thanks for the excellent info on 2020 Jeeps..Excellent job.

This was extremely helpful, thank you for the review. You broke everything down perfectly and sensibly. I just subscribed

Worth noting there’s actually 2 versions of both the pentastar and the 2.0T. The only 2.0T with eTorque is available on the Sahara. If you choose the 2.0T on Sport or Rubicon it does not come with eTorque. eTorque can also be added to the pentastar (on all models I believe). In previous years all 2.0T came with eTorque and the pentastar was not available with eTorque. For 2020 there’s technically 5 engine options considering above including the new diesel.

Still don’t understand why Jeep can’t put reclining rear seats in the 4 door. Passengers should be comfortable also. Especially for the price of these things

I just pulled this up today and totally enjoyed it. Thanks Tommy!

The Willy's sport it is then! Thanks for this comparison video.

Thanks for the video Tommy! Really enjoyed this.

Wow Tommy! That is a lot of info you covered. Thank you!

Great review. Love the look of the Willys with the diesel option. That puts it close to the Rubicon price with the diesel only $4000 apart .

Thanks Tommy, nice job, Just spent another day off road in my '74 CJ5 304 up here in Bishop, CA. It is fully factory equipped with a heater and 2 speed wipers and I loved every minute of it. Didn't miss or need any bells and whistles, buttons , cameras or screens - not that there is anything wrong with that

This was very helpful! It's amazing how many configurations can come out of four models!

I got the 2020 Willys JLU back in October, hardtop fully loaded. ITS AMAZING! Recommended!!

Thanks Tommy, Please make some more videos featuring your Jeep.

This has become one of my favorite RU-vid channels

Just bought a 2021 wrangler unlimited Willys edition in granite gray and I have to say this video helped me in my decision

Wow Tommy! Outstanding video. You've done alot of homework for Jeep buyers. Thank you!

Great job Tommy. My boys and I love your channel and content. Thanks!

Great video and review of the Wrangler. I didn’t realize body painted fenders are an option. I thought I had to get the Sahara, which I’d probably the model I’ll get. I thought I wanted the Sky top but sounds like the hardtop is a better option. Great job!

That's a great video. Masks me want to go get a Rubicon. Like the options. Just need a winch. Thanks for sharing.

I’ve been driving Jeeps since 1976.

Love these type of videos! Very informative and useful!

Thank you. As a potential Jeep buyer, this has been very helpful.

Nice rundown of the trims of Jeep! I drive 16 Rubi w cold weather package in Ca! Love my heated seats! It gets cold w freedotop off

Very useful and information video ! Makes it easier for me to navigate and compare the many options 👌🏻

Great video and sure makes things easier when choosing which Wrangler to go with.

Very well done review. However I think most folks especially in the Jeep community, don't give enough consideration to the selec trac option. To me it was the deciding factor between buying a Rubicon vs buying a Sahara. Fact is...I am not a serious rock crawler. The selec trac is not just a convenience thing it is a very useful unique feature with unique capabilities. In Full Time 4-wd you have basically a limited slip transfer case, witch is great for on road snowy, icy, rainy, conditions. No binding when you hit dry pavement patches. Then of course the transfer case has all of the other normal positions too, 2H, 4H, 4L, etc, all locked of course. To me this feature was more valuable than the Rubicons 4:1 ratio and axle lockers. I opted for the limited slip rear diff and plan to install a front diff aftermarket locker. The Rubi is always depicted as having the best 4wd system (cause of the ratio's and lockers) however depending on the applicable use, it is lacking when compared to the Sahara's optional selec trac system.

I got a 2021 Sahara this past month. Best vehicle I've ever owned!

Thanks for the great review. I test drove a Black Rubicon Recon today and loved it. Told the salesperson afterwards that I’ll take it!! Can’t wait to pick it up tomorrow!!! 😄

Thanks for all the good videos keeping me occupied during this time

Awesome video! Defintiely subscribing. Will re-watch to write down my key bullet points for my new wrangler. Thanks!

My perfect JL would be select-track with at least one locking diff and MAYBE be able to disconnect the swaybar. The select-track is awesome in the snow and ice. I am also out on the dirt exploring at least twice a week. I don't need or want a 4-1 transfer case.

Thank you for all of that! I'm planning on buying my 2020 in the next couple of weeks and your advice is great! Keep up the good work to you and your pops!

You answered so many questions i had when building a Jeep. Thank you!!!!!

Tommy - outstanding summation. Thank you.

This is my 1st time ever looking into Jeep.... THANK YOU.

The dual top group doesn't eliminate your trunk space. The soft top just ships installed and they tell you to remove it or remove the hard and only use one at a time.

Thank you soo much y’all saved me from a lot of stress

GOOD SHIT!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥 this is exactly what I needed to know

I live in the UK in Cambridge, the roads are all little, fuel is super expensive and there are no hills anywhere let alone trails. After watching your videos on off-roading I've reached the conclusion a 4 door Rubicon with the 3.2 Penistar engine mated to an auto box is the best choice, maybe with a 2-3 inch lift and slightly bigger wheels.

Great in depth breakdown of the options!

Thanks so much, that was super helpful and answered all my questions!

Great job, a lot of homework there. I ordered a TJ Sport from the factory before they were even on the lot... had to have the big 30x9.50 tires! Hahaha Ordered the Wife a 2014 Grand Cherokee Limited (trail rated with tow package) and we had to have the tan interior and burgundy paint. A LOT OF WORK BUT WE'LL WORTH IT!

A 2 door Sahara with the V6 (no eTorque) and a 8 speed would be amazing. The 2 door looks SO much better than Unlimited. It's just the classic Jeep look.

I bought a Sarge Green, 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport 4 door 2.0 turbo 8-speed automatic.

Very comprehensive and down to Earth assessment. ✌🏽

Wow, exactly the video and information I was hoping for!

You put in some work for this one....good job sir.

I have to say, I was a lot more enthusiastic about our JL before the rear window exploded out the back from what I truly believe was an overheating rear defroster (the wire was melted) in 25 degree weather. Jeep refused to cover it, saying they were “not aware of the problem.” Even a short search on the internet surfaced several examples of back windows breaking without obvious external cause and at least one other report of an overheating defroster leading to a blown out rear window. No very happy that it happened at all, but the fact that Jeep wouldn’t make good on it ($1300 so far and the defroster hasn’t been fixed yet) was the real disappointment. We’re also on the 3rd windshield (our cost), which already needs to be replaced. Clearly a known problem and I can live with that, but the rear window is a way bigger and scarier (just ask the kid who was sitting in back when it happened) issue. Not my first Jeep, but maybe the last.

Best part about my jeep was the resale value...listed it on kijiji, sold it the next day.

Thank you sir, I just bought a used Rubicon JL, with everything included! Think I didn’t even know about .!

I bought LED headlight bulbs for my 2020 Ford E450 class C RV for about $35 on Amazon. The stock headlights were also dangerously dim. Took about 30 minutes to change em out.

Good overall review. A bit exhausting. A couple points...The eco diesel has been in Ram trucks and Grand Cherokees since 2014. Unfortunately you can’t just slap a winch in the stock steel Rubicon bumper. Requires a compatible Mopar or aftermarket winch plate.

I was thinking the S was just abriviated Sport, now I know there different, Many Thanks

Thanks! Great video, have a 2021 Willey's and I love it!

Thanks, Tommy! More choices beget more confusion. It is hard to arbitrage the Jeep menu. My '16 Silverado LTZ Offroad Crew will have to do for the time being.

very helpful! Thanks for taking time to get into the nitty gritty!

22:03 The Black and Tan edition also comes with lockers and 33" which is worth noting as it could be a cheaper alternative to the Rubicon. I see this in the model comparison tool not anywhere else. Hmm.

You can get the Sky One-Touch Power Top and 8.4" Radio (4C Nav) and Premium Audio Group(Alpine) with the Sun and Sound Package on Sport S, Willys, and Freedom.

Great video! My first jeep and they let me test the Willy for a day.. love it but was considering a freedom because it had heated seats and steering wheel... but didnt see anything in your video on the freedom. But... giving up the look of the Willy for leather and heated seats... not so sure I want to do that. Decisions!

Wow! Great job buddy. I feel more prepared now

Good points, my only personal gripe is the headrest angle. Miss the old TJ seats.

I love it. I do. But I could never pay that much. I would feel dizzy signing all the paperwork at the dealership and probably break out in a sweat.

Excellent review. Thanks Tommy.

This was super helpful and thorough! Thank you!

I have the turbo engine Rubicon, its fantastic, but ya, it launched, so I put a turbosmart blow valve, and its much smother, easy install and fix. And that carpet for the hard top is velcrow, yes get it. It does make difference and its nicer looking.

Thank you so much for this informative video. I’m researching my next vehicle purchase, and I have decided Jeep is the one for me. It appears the different styles can be a bit complicated at first glance, but you have done a great job on explaining the variations. Thank you again. PS. Are you a car salesman?

That's the excellent buyer's guide, Tommy! We rented an JL in July in Texas and the hard top cooking us inside with max A/C, noisy, sways left and right at highway speed, the gas pedal locates toward the center of the driver(my right leg went numb on me the whole trip from Austin to Houston} unless of course, you are "Jeep guys", I would wait to see what the new Bronco has to offer. I love to watch your channel, Tommy. You guys keep making them amazing videos.

Excellent job. Really thorough!

Great video and review. I would really like to have a Rubicon, but for what I do, I really need my Power Wagon.

Thanks, Tommy. Very nice review

Great video, I plan on getting the Willy's as a retirement gift to myself. My only dilemma was choosing between the 2l Turbo an the 3.6.

Excellent breakdown. Thank you so much

EXCELLENT video. Very informative!

Great vid and very informative as a prospective wrangler buyer. 👍👍👍

My favorite was the Rubicon Recon on the JK but only Available in 2.0L on the JL is a Bust!!

The Unlimited Sport is enough Jeep for most anyone, a good old fashioned basic Jeep. I love mine.

Many months in, and not all that many complaints about the diesel, I'd opt for that in a Gladiator Rubicon,.. but then again I've driven the Euro Diesels and like them in most cases.

My Sport S without led lighting and without trailer tow packages makes me completely regret my purchase so bad! They’re so expensive and a pain to upgrade compared to having from factory

You should do on the 2020 Toyota 4Runner it’s a little bit messy as well.

Wow excellent info , very easy to understand

My goodness, that's a lot of information. I'm planning on getting a Wrangler by next year and I'm still so overwhelmed by all the options!!!! I only noticed the Jeep when they started making the 4-door version as I always wanted the Jeep Cherokee. Thank you for your video.

Great review.. I wish you said more about the freedom edition .. That's the one I looked at today.

Do a video of all the issues and problems on the Wrangler. And which Wrangler year is the best to get

Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara with hard top, premium sound, 35" tires, 3" lift, light bar, winch, bull bumper and 5th spare with matching rim. A man can dream.

Great review. Way more than what I need. I just need something that will get me around during snow days here in Iowa. My rear-wheel drive Mercedes-Benz is not cutting it, Hahaha......
