Used 2006 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon for Sale near Conroe, TX

2006 was the last year for the venerable 4.0 straight six torque monster engine, and the only year with a 6-speed stick. We have a '94 Cherokee in storage in Sydney that took us on 150,000 kms of off-road adventures and was fantastic, so when we needed a 'dog car' I ordered this Wrangler with the long wheelbase. Doggie has his own seat and there's still room for a long weekend's worth of luggage for an adventure. As you can see from the picture we don't baby it - the Rubicon pieces make this a proper off-road tool.

Performance - slow but smooth 0 to 60 16 seconds Build Quality - Lots of squeaks/rattle, crappy battery life, bad gas milage Appearance - Its a brick on wheels Cost of Ownership - gas mileage 10 mpgs, oil changes every 3k Fun Factor - Best thing to drive in all 4 seasons...

The 2006 Jeep Unlimited Rubicon is a SUV for the serious off-roader. On the down side there are few amenities, no power door locks, windows, and/or key-less entry. The ride is harsh and sometimes jaw pounding - but on the other hand this is the ultimate off-road vehicle. The Jeep Unlimited Rubicon has front and rear locking axels. Since this vehicle does not have a electronic throttle box, the driver controls the spped. The jeep is narrow in width allowing it to be driven in tights corridors and is at home in on rough terrain in inclement weather.

If you feel deprived by a lack of power anything, need to have seat warmers, or just feel the concierge at the hotel could have done more - move along. But if your soul pines for mountaintops or distant shores, don't waste another moment of your life before you buy your Jeep.

The jeep gets me wherever I need to go, whether its through a bunch of mud or rocks. It has a mild suspension and body lift so handling and braking are compromised slightly. I bought it lifted so I cannot compare to stock.
