The Wrangler (also known as the YJ, TJ, and JK, as explained below) is an SUV produced by American automaker Chrysler under its Jeep marque. It is a successor to the famous World War II 'Jeep' vehicle by way of the Willys civilian Jeep (CJ) in the 1950s, later produced by Kaiser-Jeep and by American Motors (AMC). The Wrangler debuted in 1987, was updated in 1997 and again in 2007, and is still popular today. A defining feature of all Wranglers is that they continue to use live axles both front and rear like their forefather, the CJ.From 1987 until 1992 the Wrangler/YJ was built in Brampton, Ontario, Canada. It was then built in the Toledo South Assembly plant until mid-2006, after which the plant was slowly torn down. The Wrangler is currently produced at Jeep's Toledo North Assembly plant in Toledo, Ohio.
The Wrangler name was not used in Canada, as it was a trim level of Chevrolet pickup in that market. Instead, 1987 to 1995 models were sold as YJ, and 1997 to 2006 models were sold as TJ. The model designations of YJ and TJ are used throughout the world in the Jeep enthusiast community to differentiate which model is being spoken of instead of using the more ambiguous term "Wrangler".
Off-road capability in Wrangler Unlimited has been increased for better ground clearance. It has also 100-percent stiffer frame, larger tires and wheels. Its cross-car steering linkage is a new feature in this model, accompanied by advanced shock tuning.
Best of all, Jeep Wrangler keeps looking at how people expect a Jeep to look: the replica of the original American Army Jeeps seen in action during the World War II, helping to liberate people and nations oppressed by the Nazi regime.
Despite its rear solid axles and enhanced Dana front, Wrangler is still Dodge's icon and the vehicle that empowers the reputation that enjoy the other Jeep models, now with improved on-road performance and a two-inch longer wheel base.
Jeep Wrangler is a 3.8-liter V-6 engine with 202 horsepower and 237 lb .-feet of torque is available in three different trims: Wrangler Unlimited X, Wrangler Rubicon, and Wrangler Sahara, all of them with improved fuel economy.
In addition to the basic models, there are nine colors with different door, top, and windshield combinations to choose from, hence every one can own a Wrangler that will look always unique by the side of other Wranglers, even observed from its wheels, available in 16, 17, and 18 inches.
If that is not enough, there are countless additions to customize the vehicle, from square headlights to independent suspension and fog lamps. Jeep Wrangler also includes Roc-trac and Command-Trac, the next-generation transfer cases, and Occupant Classification System (OCS).
When it comes to electric features, the Wranglers has an electronic disconnecting front sway bar, electric axle lockers, electronic roll mitigation, and the Electronic Stability Program (ESP), apart from a 368-watt Alpine stereo and a full-screen navigation system.
New Wrangler's models keep the removable full-framed or half doors of their predecessors, offering exposed hinges with removable convertible tops and fold-down windshield.
Mike Donoughe, Vice President of Body-on-frame Product Team said “No other vehicle in the world can replicate the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited’s unique combination of best-in-class off-road capability, open-air fun and everyday convenience and versatility”.
Jeep Wrangler has dual-stage air bags and seat-mounted side air bags, besides enhanced door locks and power windows. However, if you are short on funds, the base model without bells and whistles is only $18,765.

In 2007, Jeep Wrangler features more interior space than ever before, increasing comfort with a great and durable interior design and additional functionality into a brand new instrument panel, besides new high-back front bucket seats and a center stack.
Wrangler's body is now 5.5 inches wider and with overall sheet metal for a robust, strong presence, synonym of the brand name that in Wrangler has its best representative.
