2024 Rubicon Extreme recon Final addition Hydro Blue Peal
My local Dealer would only offer 5K off sticker price. I went on Jeep.com and looked for dealers with sitting inventory. I found Folsom Lake Jeep had two Hydro Blue Peal FE Rubicon's. I called and the salesman said they would sell the first one for 85K, so I bought it. No hassle or B.S. Other dealers would only offer 5K just like my local dealership. Sticker was 103K It was worth the 5-hour drive to get it. Look for dealers with a lot of sitting inventory. All the inventory is on Jeep.com then go directly to the dealer's website. Those deals are out there. I bought mine before the Moab came out so they may move more on price now. Great Jeep, Good Luck!
 
Right down the street from me.... And you know you drove right by Metalcloak ;)
 
Speaking of "deals" on a brand new 392...Can someone please buy this New 2024 392 in Montana, so I can quit thinking about buying it. I don't really "need" a second 392, but DANG it would be Awesome.

I've been watching this 392 since July of 2024. My requirements are simple, just the Warn winch and Armorlite floor. I love the red seats that came in our 2024 (non-FE). I just looked at the dealer website and they just dropped the price again. Now asking $82,500.

Not sure if "lot rot" is a thing but definitely ask for a fresh oil change. 😬

That is a great deal. I paid $90K for my 25 and they're basically the same. I think the 25's just got that cabin venting thing.

Lot rot is real. I bought a Gladiator that had been on the lot for almost a year. But, the place I bought it from starts moving them after 90 days and starts them once a week. Yes, the oil change should be thrown in and an inspection by a tech.

What is a "Cabin venting thing" 🤔
Active Cabin Ventilation. When activated it blows the hot air from the cabin or uses residual engine heat to warm the cabin. It's in the Jeep app. Really the only thing different in the 392 from the 2024. Not worth $8,000 practically speaking. But, at this price point, people buy what they want. A few 2024's are still available for $82K while, at least right now, dealerships are holding firm at $90K for a 2025. Or get the $7K off MSRP on a Moab. Lot's of 392 options for a while.

There's two 2024 392 models with 88 and 91 miles respectively, for sale right now in MI for $75,950 each!

Just "test drive" miles on them I'm guessing since it says Zero owners. Good price.
Yeah the seller is a liquidator so likely bought old inventory from a franchise dealer. The listing shows its titled direct from MSO.
 
There are some great deals out there if you willing to go get them have have them shipped in. Dealers are panicing now knowing values of the 24/5's are only going to go down with the new 79k Moab. Generally most people would rather have a 26 then a one and two year old vehicle even it originally was worth more.
If I was in the market for a 392 I would be seriously looking for one of these 24/5 at the same or close to the price of a 26 Moab.

Congrats to Rowdy, as some have said an educated customer is always the best customer. Many happy miles!

you can always use a backup. My daughter thinks I should buy one so hers can stay clean and we can take mine in the mud.

APPROVED! I approve your daughter's suggestion and will be excited to see your pictures of them side by side, Clean & Dirty. 😆✌️
