Does anyone have experience/opinion on Jeep Wranglers? I know you give up the cargo space, but they would be more of a true 4 wheel drive(?). I haven’t ridden in one in awhile, but notice a lot of them on the road here in St. Croix County. My dad used to say they “ride like a lumber wagon”, but maybe suspension is better today.
My kid has a Jeep, think it’s a Grand Cherokee or something like that. He has a 23′ Cruiser he tows around with it. He says it has plenty of power to handle it.

Now I am seeing some new 2017 models that fit my needs that I can get into for about $32-$35K.Do tell. What trucks are you finding brand new for that price out the door? Dodge RAM is the only one I can think of that could come close to that cheap for a crew cab.
My 2017 Silverado Crew with the 6.5′ box was not too far away from that. I had a trade and the diff was $6800. They gave me $29,500 for my trade which was a 2015 Silverado Crew with 6.5′ box, 33K miles. It sold a week later for $29,900.
There are SO many incentives out there its crazy, but you have to be aware that you may not qualify for all of them.
Example, if you are a Costco member, you save like an additional $500 off the bat. GM does bonus tags periodically and those are usually $1k on certain vehicles. They have other incentives if you browse their website that you can get an additional $$$ off just by random chance. 3 years ago I was looking, but not ready to buy and they gave me a code for $3K off a new Silverado on top of every other rebate, etc already being offered.
CaptainMusky, I sent you a PM.

Update:
Kid pulled into the yard last week with a chevy diesel. 
Maybe that Jeep didn’t handle the tuna boat as well as he claimed.

Hehe. Pulling may not have been the problem, but stopping and handling on the road most definitely would be a bigger issue with a short wheelbase vehicle like that.
It’s a good feeling when the truck has a few scratches and you don’t have to worry about it staying (nice)
