So who's got $20K off a 2025 final edition 392?

[Roark098]

Jeep has to be offering dealers some type of rebate on these, all I've seen on brand new 2025 final editions is no more than 10K off from a sticker of $105K to a price of $95K. No way I'm paying that when I can order up a MOAB, and I'm sure the market will reflect this.

I stopped in a local Jeep dealer last weekend, and they were pretty cocky about their final edition 392 they had sitting in the showroom.. they seem completely idiotic about the real market or just seem to ignore reality?

In Houston, the 2025's are selling at a 2 or 3k discount for 98k. Add on a bull guard and any extras at all and they're 107k. MOAB's will be A LOT cheaper, but they will NOT have some of the luxury items found on its predecessors. For most people, it won't matter. They'll take the 20k discount and run.

Based on a lot of research - the MOAB doesn’t have the painted fenders, the red leather seats, the winch, the rear hatch inflator, and has the standard X wheels instead of the XR wheels. Shocks appear different.

All in all - I can hang all of that myself for a lot less than $20k. And pick best in class products at that.

Someone posted a new 2024 FE in MT yesterday in Montana for 82.5k, might be worth a road trip if you want a FE…

At the end of the day, it’s a 392 in a Wrangler that sounds glorious, and you’ll forget your problems every time you point that hood out of the garage. There are no bad choices….

There seems to be a lot of misinformation going on about what the MOAB is missing comparing it to the 2025 Final Edition Rubicon.

Tailgate Air Compressor - While the 2024 FE had it the '25 FE did not, you would have to option it in same as the new MOAB.

Seats - They are the exact same black seats but do not have the Rubicon 392 stitching into the headrest. There were never any red seats in the FE models, they were black.

Wheels - They are the exact same wheels as the FE models in '24 & '25, the bead lock capable 17 x 8.0 including the faux ring. But, they do have black pockets instead of gold.

Shocks - Not 100% sure but the new MOAB has the 35" Tire Rubicon 392 Suspension listed same as all the FE models did.

Fenders - Yep, they ain't painted but black. lol

Enjoy that new MOAB, you will love it!

The tailgate inflater was ONLY VERY LIMITED in 2024. I have a 2024 FE I ordered in May, and they had already quit installing the inflator in the tailgate. So, many 2024 FE's did NOT have the tailgate inflater.

Interesting, I thought for sure that would have been standard for the whole model year.

oh well, I finally caved and pulled the trigger, best I could do for a cash deal was 10k off of sticker. I really wanted Anvil with one-touch, and I'm very happy with both choices. She's a beast for sure!

What a beauty, congrats.
Also, that ivy around the garage is also a beauty

THATS one of the frustrating things. They seem to have changed standard (included) items between years and even during the annual runs.

Feedback I've had on the tailgate compressor - people with them liked the convenience, but had issues with capacity (slow fill on standard 392 tires, much less oversized), as well as duty rating (it would overheat and you'd have to wait to run it longer). And really not worth the $1995 that jeep wanted for it.

So I'm looking into the under passenger seat ARB install, once mine's on the ground... And mebbie an upgrade on shocks, and mebbie a winch, and... hmmm...

"MUST NOT BUY GOODIES UNTIL JEEP IS HERE", /repeat this mantra.

FYI, if/when you do the ARB compressor under the passenger seat, if you end up installing the ArmorLite flooring you'll need to get some spacers for the passenger seat so the crossbar doesn't get stuck on the electricals of the compressor. I just experienced this last month after installing ArmorLite.

Talk to me about this ArmorLite…. This is the first thing I’ve heard of it, and it looks interesting.

The only reason I did it was because I spilled nearly 5 gallons of used motor oil in the back. It ran down underneath the rear seats. I tore out all the interior carpet and replaced it with ArmorLite. It's basically modular Rhino Lining with additional insulation.
Plenty of good YouTube videos out there. Here's one showing it with all seats removed. I just removed front seats.

I had the that as part of the factory option. I think the only 3 things I added were black grill, winch, and the No carpet washable floor option which everyone said is basically rebadged armorlite
