Hey my names Dan, from So. Cal. Rockacon referred me here. Wanting to get into the Jeep life. Currently have a 4x4 01 F150, but recently grenaded my front diff, popped a cv axle out of place, and tweaked my frame where all the mounting points are for the front diff which some of those are engine mounts. Before that, thought the world of my truck...now its time to get rid of the Ford and get a Jeep! Never owned one, but always wanted one! Truck has been in the shop for over a week getting tweaked back into shape, and since then i have been driving myself crazy looking for a Jeep to purchase!
I want to get a Jeep so I can go where I want to go and have nothing stopping me! I am a avid outdoorsman, and always on those dirt roads, or trails. I am in a bit of a situation though. Since I dont have a whole lot of money to spend, I have been debating whether a 4 door sport/sahara, or a 2 door rubicon would be best for me. I really like the 4 doors because of all the extra room. I really like the rubicons because they are the best on the trail stock. And I dont think there is any way I can get a 4 door rubicon because of my budget. Max spending limit for me is like 17 or 18k. I do realize I can put lockers on the sport/sahara but thats a bit on the expensive side isnt it?
If you were in my shoes, what would you do? Would you go with the 2 door rubicon or go with the 4 door sport or sahara?
Any other info on what to look for when buying a jeep would be greatly appreciated!
Keep in mind to that this is gonna be my daily driver, not just a toy.
Thanks
