Re: Liberty Sales Up in February - Wrangler Sales Fall Its understandable...Ive been pricing the Wrangler and Liberty for the wife. You can get a very nicely equipped Liberty for 19-20K of course not 4x4...and the equivalent wrangler is a little more...the new Liberty is very very nice...sold feel to it rides great, price is right..jeep got it right with this one...

Re: Liberty Sales Up in February - Wrangler Sales Fall I'm curious to know how much JK owners are paying a month for the 4 door because I think that the word is getting out that the dealers have been gouging people for 4-500/mo. for a lease where I live on those things. I would assume that people are not interested in getting ripped. I'm sorry but 4-500 is crazy high for a low gas mileage vehicle like this. It should be around 350.

Re: Liberty Sales Up in February - Wrangler Sales Fall The "OMG, gotta get that!!" response might be off...
...or people could be tired of waiting for the to hit the lots and are purchasing other vehicles. Now would be a great time to introduce a pickup version. Are you LISTENING, Chrysler?!?! |
