Anyone with Wrangler 4Xe experience?

[Bumpinjeep]

I'm thinking of picking up a third vehicle for the fam. It really would be there just for crappy weather (PNW). There are a lot of attractive leases on Wrangler 4Xes. Does anyone on the forum have experience with 4Xe powered Jeeps? I test drove one and really liked it all things considered. Still can't believe its almost $60K, but the lease rates are great so who cares?

Not sure what exactly you need, but for that price you can get a nice Suburban RST with the straight six turbo diesel. Over 30 mpg highway and large enough to tow or haul whatever you need to.

The 4xe leases are stupidly cheap because you get the $7500 tax credit applied to the lease. I almost leased one before ordering my 392, you could get a $65k Rubicon 4xe for like $450/month with $0 out of pocket. Not sure what current rates are.

OP - the Wrangler is an awesome daily, I had a V6 JL and now have a 392 and might never sell it. I test drove a 4xe and liked it a lot, but thought I'd regret not going for the 392. It's definitely faster than the regular V6 and for the money I don't think you can do much better. Wranglers also hold their resale value incredibly well.

The draw to me was the monthly payment ($265 a month with $4K down), along with the capabilities of the Wrangler. Plus it gets 49 mpg with the battery fully charged. It really isn't something that I would be driving too often anyway, something like a few months out of the year. Maybe I truly don't need it and rather want it. If this was something in the $700+ a month range then that's a hard no-go.
Hoping people have any sort of experience with the 4Xe vehicles to say 'go for it' or 'avoid it at all costs.'

For $265 a month, hard to go wrong. What else can you get for that kind of money these days?

We have one soft top rubi with all the packages.
I know the leases have been going up all year. We love the one we got.

My family member is a big Jeep guy, always had one, and has had a 4xe for about 1 year now. He loves it. I checked it out and while my first inclination would be to go with a 392, this would be an awesome (much cheaper) second place.

we love our 2.0T 2021 Rubicon....not sure how far you are from Nampa Idaho, but I have a guy up there that does 8% below invoice on custom factory orders...hmu if interested. We flew up there and had a great road trip back home in ours.



That lease is a great deal though....although I prefer purchase because Jeep's are like big kid Legos and the mods are endless.

There is nothing like a Jeep for just having a sense just being able to go anywhere you want practically


this is from recent road trip up to Tahoe



If you plan on just keeping it stock though, the lease is great choice at that price

50k is fine
