The off-roader emphasizes rock crawling over highway comfort, and when it comes to hardcore trailblazing, it's rarely matched. Competitors include the Nissan Xterra and Toyota FJ Cruiser. Redesigned for 2007, the Wrangler looks very similar to the previous generation, which should bode well for most Wrangler enthusiasts. Offroad mainstays include a non-independent suspension (solid front and rear axles) and a part-time four-wheeldrive system with available dual locking differentials. Trim levels include the base X, midlevel Sahara and rugged Rubicon. The four-seat Wrangler is wider but shorter than its predecessor. An extendedwheelbase Unlimited edition adds 20.6 inches to the Wrangler's wheelbase, as well as two additional doors. Exterior The Wrangler features such classic elements as a vertically slatted grille, removable doors, exposed C-pillars and a tail-mounted spare tire. Differentiating elements from the previous generation include shorter grille slats, clearly separated fenders, and fog lights incorporated into the front bumper. Jeep says a curved windshield and tighter roof integration help reduce interior noise by 20 percent, which means passengers should be able to actually hear the stereo now. The Wrangler X uses a standard four-wheel-drive system incorporating a two-speed transfer case for part-time use. Sahara editions add monotube shock absorbers in place of the X's twin-tube setup, and Wrangler Rubicons get a four-wheel-drive transfer case with a 4:1 low-range gear ratio plus heavy-duty Dana 44 axles, each with a locking differential. Other offroad features include three underbody skid plates, an available tow package with Dana 44 axles for lower trim levels and an available electronically disconnecting front stabilizer bar for increased ground clearance. A longer wheelbase and shorter rear overhang increase the departure angle for the Wrangler Rubicon to 40.6 degrees, which is 6.7 degrees more than the previous generation. Ground clearance and the breakover angle remain about the same, but the approach angle drops slightly due to a longer front overhang. An available three-panel hardtop has removable sections above the driver, front passenger and rear passengers. Sixteen-inch steel wheels are standard, while alloy wheels in 16-, 17- and 18-inch diameters are available. A new appearance package on the Sahara adds the 18-inch wheels along with front and rear bumper overlays. At 173.4 inches long, the Wrangler Unlimited is more than half a foot longer than the previous Wrangler Unlimited. The side doors, available as full or half-size, are removable, and the windshield can be folded down for those who like to catch bugs in their teeth. Interior The interior sports new shapes, though the overall vibe feels as basic as it did in the previous Wrangler. The thin-spoke steering wheel has a circular hub, and a vertical center control panel features a high-mounted radio with circular air vents underneath. Newly available options include power windows and door locks — a Wrangler first — and an in-dash navigation system. Total passenger volume measures 102.9 cubic feet in the regular-length Wrangler and 104 cubic feet in the Unlimited. Both figures represent about a 10 percent increase over their predecessors. The rear seats fold, leaving a maximum of 56.5 cubic feet of cargo volume in the regular-length Wrangler and more than 85 cubic feet in the Unlimited. Lockable storage spaces include the center console and a compartment integrated into the rear load floor. Under the Hood A 3.8-liter V-6 is the sole drivetrain for the 2007 Wrangler. It produces 202 horsepower and 237 pounds-feet of torque. A six-speed manual transmission is standard across all trim levels, while a four-speed automatic is optional. Safety Standard four-wheel-disc brakes with ABS incorporate an offroad feature that allows sustained lockup over loose surfaces. Also standard is an electronic stability system with Chrysler's new rollover mitigation technology, which can pulse individual brakes in an attempt to prevent impending rollovers. Side-impact airbags are optional for the front seats. Side curtain airbags aren't offered.

Oh my gosh it is awesome. My friend had one in high school back in the midwest and we used to mud every weekend and it would never stall in the water. Then he got a stinking Toyota and you couldn't go through six inches of water before it stalled. I love mine so far. I have only put a hundred miles on it, but it rides amazing. I am taking it up to the Sierras this weekend to check out the off roading. The only bad part is it is so nice I don't want to get it dirty. It is nice to own a piece of American History. My wife and I already established we will own this forever. With a lifetime warranty why not! Favorite Features Sahara's tires, navigation, satellite radio (I hope they handle the elements when the top is off). Everything! Suggested Improvements Take off speed, center console, gas mileage. My 1st Wrangler Date Posted: 01/12/2008 RATING: By: Mauthie1 DETAILED RATINGS: 8 10 10 Performance: Fun-to-Drive: Build Quality: 7 8 10 Comfort: Interior Design: Reliability: 5 8 Fuel Economy: Exterior Design: Vehicle 2008 Jeep Wrangler X 2dr SUV 4WD (3.8L 6cyl 6M) Review This is my 1st Wrangler and I love it. The drive is much smoother than I expected, I love the interior. The MPG could be better, but I bought it knowing this. Great SUV, I love the style and great look of it. Favorite Features I love the freedom top, although it does leak in heavy rain. I love the fact that I can take this baby apart and enjoy the outdoors while driving. It just looks awesome in general. Suggested Improvements Redesign the freedom top so there is less chance of leaking. Front fenders could be designed so that mud and dirt dont get deposited on side of jeep so much, but hey, its a jeep!! "Copyright Edmunds.com, Inc. All rights reserved.

Glossary View Full Glossary CARFAX Price Adjustment™ Accidents, service records, number of owners and many other history factors can affect a vehicle's value. The CARFAX Price Adjustment is a tool that analyzes millions of used car transactions to measure how the combination of all the information reported to CARFAX affects the value of a particular vehicle. The vehicle's retail book value plus the CARFAX Price Adjustment will give you a more accurate measure of the vehicle's value. Use this tool, along with a vehicle inspection and test drive, to make a better decision about your next used car. First Owner When the first owner(s) obtains a title from a Department of Motor Vehicles as proof of ownership. Manufacturer Recall Automobile manufacturers issue recall notices to inform owners of car defects that have come to the manufacturer's attention. Recalls also suggest improvements that can be made to improve the safety of a particular vehicle. Most manufacturer recalls can be repaired at no cost to you. Ownership History CARFAX defines an owner as an individual or business that possesses and uses a vehicle. Not all title transactions represent changes in ownership. To provide estimated number of owners, CARFAX proprietary technology analyzes all the events in a vehicle history. Estimated ownership is available for vehicles manufactured after 1994 and titled solely in the US including Puerto Rico. Dealers sometimes opt to take ownership of a vehicle and are required to in the following states: Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and South Dakota. Please consider this as you review a vehicle's estimated ownership history. Title Issued A state issues a title to provide a vehicle owner with proof of ownership. Each title has a unique number. Each title or registration record on a CARFAX report does not necessarily indicate a change in ownership. In Canada, a registration and bill of sale are used as proof of ownership.
