All that being said we have one sitting on our lot right now with a 6 speed, that I might replace my Tiguan with. But I am single, with a dog.
Unlimited Wranglers get traded in for 1 reason and one reason only. People realize after owning the thing for 6 months they are not a suitable family car. Also people complain huge about the fuel economy.
The main reason on am considering this, is I want to do the pickup conversion, which is ridiculously cool:

Hah, I posted this before, but I bought one a couple years ago. Picked it up on a Saturday, took it to work one day, realized how god-fracking awful it is, and took it back to the dealer on Tuesday. I paid them $1000 or something (can't remember the exact amount now) as a peace offering for being such a flake, gave my salesman a few bucks for his trouble, and hopped back in my 300c. It's easy to romanticize how fun it would be to bomb around in a Jeep, but owning one wasn't for me.
