The Wrangler legacy dates back to the World War II-era Willy’s Jeeps and has been in a constant state of evolution and perfection ever since. However, unlike many other iconic 4WDs, it has not abandoned its rugged backcountry roots in pursuit of luxury. While refinement has been vastly improved over the years, this has not been at the detriment of all-terrain capability. It’s been quite the contrary, with the Rubicon model boasting front and rear lockers, Dana axles, a sway bar disconnect, armor, a lifted and uprated suspension, and much more. It’s perhaps unsurprising that it’s one of the most popular vehicles on our forum, with recent offerings including this 2014 Hemi AEV w/ Ursa Minor, 2018 Recon, and 2024 4Xe Rubicon X. Cue today’s 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited (61,xxx miles), which boasts desirable factory options, a suite of AEV upgrades, and is topped with an Ursa Minor J30 camper. If you’d like a better understanding of how this vehicle performs as a travel companion, check out inspiring builds from Dan Grec, Drew Simms, and Artful Outdoor Adventures.
From the Seller:
“A 2013 JKU Rubicon with nearly every factory option. No expense spared on the build or maintenance. Selling because we don’t use it much anymore, and mostly camp out of our full-sized truck camper. I ordered this new and have been the only owner. I have all the pieces to return the rear cargo area back to stock form. Oil changes are performed every 3,000 miles or no more than six months. All fluids are regularly flushed and replaced early. This is a great rig and I will be sad to see it go, but with two other off-road vehicles, I just don’t use it enough to justify keeping it.”
