Hey OP,

Congrats on the Willys!
I still have my car.
I bought my jeep last Nov.
It's a 2015 sport with a 2 spacer lift and Pro Comp wheels.

Have Fun!

Willys pack is 3.73 gears, Trac lok diff, black grille, connectivity pack, some floor mats, and a tow strap kit and tires and wheels basically.

As far as reliability, from what I've researched, the engine had left side cylinder head issues at one point and an oil filter housing that was prone to cracking. Alot of the electrical problems I saw were due to loose connections, and a lot of those owner induced from not tightening things properly after installing accessories.

I'm happy with it after the first week. Nice to not be shifting gears, comfy ride, and have some space to throw stuff now.
