I have a 2018 Unlimited Sahara that I wound up buying off lease. Only has 14K miles on it due to working at home so the residual make it a really good deal.

I could trade it for nearly $10K more than I bought it for, because supply is limited due to a chip shortage. Two months ago, there were 30 wranglers in stock. Now, 0 to 3 at any one dealer. Insane right now.

Quoted from yzfguy:

Ok. Justin case anyone knows this stuff....
I'm about to place an order for my 22 unlimited Willy's package. They are telling me the only V6 engine I can get with my choices is the V6 etorque. I'm wondering if there are any disadvantages to this I have only read about the possibility of expensive repairs in years to come.
I also chose the $700 full-time all-wheel drive button option and wonder if there are any negatives to this? My Jeep will mostly be on the road and not too concerned about off-road capabilities but just had these two questions before I sign on the dotted line. I outfitted it with the cold weather package and a convenience group and the upgraded Alpine stereo as well as proximity keys.
I'm about to place the order on Monday, even though the color I wanted is no longer available . I can't really find any true bitches about the e torque, and I don't want a 6 speed at this point. Well, I do.... But I am occasionally stuck in traffic and my knees are getting old
Thanks for any advice!

No idea on the eTorque, but the V6 is tried and true. IMO the turbo whine is annoying.

All wheel drive is a great option. It's odd in true 4 wheel on pavement.

Just
Empty

Pocket

Side note if anyone is looking for a top of the line Best Top soft top for a JL 4 dr (2018 - current), I have one that is brand new. I installed it once and it doesn't fit.

Why? My Jeep had a fender bender years ago and it does not fit because the repair is not perfect to factory settings. Sucks. I'll give you a damn good deal on it. I'll even help install it if you want. Paid $2700.
