Wow, what a difference on the beach.
Power, traction, handling, room, utility: all hands down better than the Liberty.
Also added a nice rack, which I could not do on the Liberty:
Here's a profile:
2013 Jeep® Wrangler Sahara
The all-American icon shines on
No model in the Jeep lineup better
exemplifies the spirit of unbridled adventure than the Wrangler – the
linear descendant of the very same truck that carved through the sand at
Omaha Beach on D-Day almost 70 years ago. To help you explore your
limits, the 2013 Jeep® Wrangler Sahara, on sale now here at our dealership, gathers a host of must-have equipment into one value-laden package.
From its all-access aptitude to its refined, four-passenger
interior, the Jeep Wrangler (MSRP $22,295) delivers unrivaled
versatility for drivers looking to cruise through their daily commutes
and negotiate hillside scree all in the same vehicle. The Trail Rated®
2013 Jeep Wrangler Sahara (MSRP $27,895) enhances that versatility with
new standard and available amenities aimed at boosting comfort,
convenience and capability.
Leading the list of fresh features are redesigned seats (wrapped in
embroidered cloth) that offer thicker side bolsters and greater
support. Ambient lighting now brightens the footwells and cup
holders. There’s also an auto-dimming rearview mirror with LED map
lighting. On the infotainment front, the available premium Tire Pressure
Monitor displays inflation measurements for each tire, while audio
performance reaches new heights courtesy of the available Alpine premium
speaker system.
Exterior enhancements include a new premium Sunrider®
soft-top that’s composed of three layers for better sound insulation,
and dual windshield washer nozzles for greater visibility no matter how
much mud the trail throws your way. New Sahara-specific 18-inch alloy
wheels sport a polished lip, sparkle silver paint and 255/70R18
Bridgestone Dueler tires.
New just last year, the Pentastar 3.6-liter V6 produces sufficient
grunt––285 hp and 260 lb/ft of torque––to tackle steep slopes and rocky
trails. Balancing power with efficiency, the Pentastar V6 (one of Ward’s
“10 Best Engines” for 2012) uses advanced features such as variable
valve timing, electronic throttle control and low-friction pistons to
deliver an EPA-estimated 21 mpg highway. Power is routed through a
standard six-speed manual transmission or an available five-speed
automatic. 
Count on putting boundaries behind you thanks to the standard Command-Trac®
“Shift-on-the-Fly” four-wheel drive system, which sends power to the
rear wheels under normal driving conditions, then distributes torque
evenly between the axles when you shift into Four-Wheel High. The
available Trac-Lok Differential senses wheel slip and sends power across
the rear axle to the wheel with the best bite, while Brake Lock
Differential––working at all four corners as part of the Traction
control system––uses the antilock brake system to mimic a locking
differential and keep the wheels moving at the same speed for greater
safety across even the most torturous terrain.
Legendary Jeep capability includes a best in-class approach angle
of 44.3 degrees, a breakover angle of 25.5 degrees and a departure angle
of 40.4 degrees, numbers that leave competing SUVs and car-based
crossovers quivering at curbside. Electronic Stability Control, Hill
Start Assist and Hill Descent Control are also on hand to ensure you’ll
enjoy your adventures without any interruption.
Thanks to its rugged body-on-frame construction, solid axles,
stamped-steel skid plates, heavy-duty suspension with gas shocks, and
forged-steel tow hooks, you can live the high life in your Wrangler
Sahara, off-road and on, for the long haul. Should that haul include the
need to tow a camper, the Wrangler Sahara meets the challenge with a
Trailer-Sway Control system and a maximum towing capacity of 3,500
pounds.
This year, the Wrangler lineup earned two “Best Resale Value”
awards––top-10 overall, and top among competing compact utility
vehicles––from Kelly Blue Book’s Kbb.com website. At the root
of such exceptional value is a generous roster of standard and available
equipment, highlights of which include air conditioning, heated front
seats, leather upholstery, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, remote
keyless entry and deep-tint sunscreen windows. Also on the list are
automatic headlamps, power-heated exterior mirrors, a 115-volt AC
outlet, foglamps, tubular side steps, body-color fender flares, the
Uconnect® infotainment system and SiriusXM Satellite Radio with a free one-year subscription.
Following an evaluation of the Wrangler that took them over smooth streets and rock-strewn trails, the editors at Road & Track
wrote, “There’s nothing that passes for a road that can’t be
negotiated, so you’re never turned back by doubt. It’s quite liberating,
and it allows you to visit places you’d never go with a car, or even
with a longer and lower SUV.” Experience exploration free from doubt by
scheduling a test drive of the new 2013 Jeep Wrangler Sahara today.
