2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 3.6 VVT

Summary:

It's a keeper

Faults:

Not a thing. I purchased this vehicle to replace a 2012 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon that had constant engine problems. I have had it since new and it has never let me down in any way.

As far as driving, I think it drives great for a Jeep. It's a "Cadillac" compared to the older "CJ" models. It's a ragtop so yes it's noisy at highway speeds, it hates high winds and high cross winds can be a challenge. I average around 21 mpg which is great for a vehicle that can and does go everywhere.

I perform routine maintenance on it myself and other than regular maintenance items (and accessories) it has never cost me a dime.

I am so impressed with this Jeep that two weeks ago I purchased a new Jeep Gladiator Rubicon with the 3.6 VVT. I still kept my old Jeep (after 9 years it's a part of the family).

If anything does happen in the future I will update this review.

General Comments:

If you want a vehicle that can go anywhere I would suggest a Rubicon. Pay the extra money, it will be well worth it in the long term. This has truly been a quality vehicle, well built and so much fun that I'm surprised the powers to be haven't tried to make it illegal. I am 64 years old and as long as I can keep getting in and out of it I will keep it. (Love this Jeep!)

Noisy? Yes

Leaks? No

Fuel mileage? Acceptable

Go anywhere? Absolutely

Fun? I cannot express with words how much fun it's been, and keeping me feeling young is a plus.

I purchased my first new Jeep in 1983 (CJ-7) and over the years I've had several. This has been my favorite. I'm hoping my new Gladiator Rubicon is just as reliable as my 2015 Rubicon (2-dr); it has truly been the best vehicle purchase I've ever made.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
