So my dad who is retired has fallen in love with my Jeep (2012 JKU Rubi) and hitting trails. So much so he wants to buy one. I'm helping him look at options...he likes the longer wheelbase for the ride comfort (he's 70) and would prefer the unlimited. He's hooked on the Rubicon as well (he deserves it..always been a great dad, putting the family needs first and sacrificing for his country in Vietnam). Seeing as though he is retired and watching his $$$ he knows he may have to shoot for the 2004-2007 years.
I have found a 2006 unlimited rubicon for sale that looks pretty clean and has ok mileage (81k)...curiosity for those out there who have or have owned a 2004-2006 LWB? Reliable engine...quirks...build quality...prowess?
It is a soft top, but I know you can buy hard tops for it (again preference for his age)
Want to help him realize his dream of getting one so he can hit the trails before "spirit willing body not" limitations kick in. Any input y'all may have I'd be much obliged!
