Quantum Auto Sales in Garden Grove, in the heart of Orange County, has this rugged and capable 4x4 ready for its next adventure. With 65,048 miles on the odometer and priced at $30,995, this gray Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Recon represents serious value for serious off-road enthusiasts throughout Southern California.

About This 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Recon

The Rubicon Recon is not your average Wrangler trim — it was purpose-built by Jeep as a special edition that stacks additional off-road hardware on top of the already legendary Rubicon package. At 65,048 miles, this Wrangler is well within its prime years of use. The Wrangler platform is famously durable, and 65k miles on one of these trucks simply means it's been broken in, not worn out. The gray exterior gives it a stealthy, aggressive look that pairs naturally with its trail-ready capability. Whether you're weekend-wheeling in the local mountains or cruising Pacific Coast Highway, this rig is built to handle both worlds.

2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Jeep's proven 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine, one of the most reliable powerplants in the modern Jeep lineup. Paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission and full-time 4WD capability, this Wrangler delivers confident performance on road and off. The Rubicon Recon trim adds a Dana 44 front axle and rear axle combination, heavy-duty rock rails, and an electronically disconnecting front sway bar — meaning you can unlock the front axle at the touch of a button when the trail gets technical. The 4:1 transfer case ratio gives you the kind of low-range crawling power that lets you tackle serious terrain without breaking a sweat.

The automatic transmission makes this an accessible choice for buyers who want maximum capability without the fatigue of a manual in stop-and-go Southern California traffic. Fuel economy runs around 16–18 MPG combined — typical for a truck of this class and capability.

Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Recon Features and Interior

A Four-Door Wrangler Built for Real Life

The Unlimited four-door configuration sets this apart from the two-door Wrangler by offering genuine rear-seat comfort and expanded cargo space without sacrificing off-road ability. Whether you're hauling gear, passengers, or both, the Unlimited body gives you the flexibility the standard Wrangler simply can't match.

Rubicon Recon-Specific Features

The Rubicon Recon edition was released as a special build that included features not standard even on the base Rubicon. Expect upgraded off-road tires mounted on Rubicon-spec beadlock-capable wheels, heavy-duty tow hooks, skid plates protecting the fuel tank and transfer case, and Jeep's Command-Trac or Rock-Trac 4WD system depending on configuration. Inside, the Wrangler Unlimited provides a functional cockpit with available Uconnect infotainment, Bluetooth connectivity, air conditioning, and seating designed to handle trail dust as easily as a grocery run.

Jeep Wrangler Reliability and Ownership

The 2017 Jeep Wrangler has earned a strong reputation among owners for long-term durability. The 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 is widely regarded as one of Chrysler/FCA's most dependable engines, with many examples routinely surpassing 200,000 miles with basic maintenance. Wrangler owners consistently report high satisfaction rates, particularly around the truck's ability to hold its value better than nearly any other vehicle in its class.

Used Wrangler Rubicons in particular hold their resale value exceptionally well — it's one of the few vehicles where you can buy used, drive it for years, and still recoup a strong percentage of your investment. The Rubicon Recon edition adds a layer of desirability that makes this an especially smart long-term buy. Routine oil changes, brake service, and keeping up with differential fluid changes are the main ownership tasks to stay on top of.
