In 2018, Jeep did something it does about once every decade: it replaced the Wrangler. The new JL kept the solid axles, the removable doors, and the fold-down windshield, and fixed almost everything else. The doors and hood went to aluminum, so the doors you take off on a Saturday weigh noticeably less. The windshield folds with four bolts instead of twenty-eight. The 3.6-liter V6 got a new eight-speed automatic in place of the old five-speed, which is the single biggest reason a JL cruises at highway speed in quiet instead of a roar. And for the first time, a Wrangler could be ordered with blind spot monitoring. This 2018 Wrangler Unlimited Sport S is that first-year JL, in Bright White, with 113,000 miles and the price that goes with them. For a vehicle people buy as a second car, a weekend car, or a first car for a teenager who needs something indestructible, that is the number that matters.

Two factory packages, $4,195 total. The Safety Group ($995) is the one to look for on a used Wrangler: Blind Spot and Cross Path Detection, ParkSense rear park assist, LED taillamps, and the injection-molded black rear bumper. Quick Order Package 24S ($3,200) is what makes a Sport into a Sport S: power windows and locks with speed-sensitive locking, remote keyless entry, power heated mirrors, automatic headlamps, a security alarm, deep-tint rear glass, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and 17-inch Tech Silver aluminum wheels on 245/75R17 all-season tires. The six-way driver's seat and four-way passenger seat are in black cloth, the right material for a vehicle whose doors come off.

Under the hood is the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 with engine stop-start, 285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, backed by the eight-speed automatic and the Command-Trac part-time four-wheel-drive system with a two-speed transfer case. The Pentastar is the most-produced engine in the Jeep lineup, every shop knows it, and the eight-speed is the transmission that made the JL livable as a daily driver. The 21.5-gallon fuel tank on the Unlimited gives it the range to reach the trailhead and back without planning around gas stations. The Sunrider soft top was standard equipment on the Sport S; ask us to confirm the top on this unit.

Safety on a 2018 Wrangler is what the Safety Group adds plus what the JL brought. Blind spot and cross path detection, rear park assist, a rearview camera in the spare tire carrier, electronic stability control with roll mitigation, hill start assist, and trailer sway control are all on this vehicle. There is no forward collision warning or adaptive cruise on this unit, and the copy does not pretend otherwise.

Bright White is the Wrangler color that shows the least trail scuffing and the most contrast with black fender flares, and it is the one that photographs best with the doors off. At 113,000 miles, this Wrangler is past every Jeep factory warranty, which is exactly why it is sold as Beaver Direct Certified with the Platinum warranty rather than as-is. Ask for the inspection report and the CARFAX; on a Wrangler at this mileage, the maintenance history and the condition of the top and the frame are the story.

Beaver Direct Certified
Every Beaver Direct Certified vehicle comes with the Platinum 12-Month/12,000-Mile Warranty, a $1,395 value, included in the price. Before it reached the lot this Wrangler went through reconditioning and a multi-point inspection, and we will show you the inspection report. Jeep's factory warranties have run out on this vehicle, so treat the Platinum warranty as the coverage; ask us and we will show you the terms in writing.

The Beaver 30-Day Exchange
Take it home for a month. Take the doors off on a Saturday, put it in four-low on a fire road, run the eight-speed up GA-400, and see whether the blind spot monitor earns its keep. If it is not the right vehicle, bring it back within 30 days and exchange it for one that is.
