Anyone have any info on availability of this special edition? I have heard they are only making 1300 and they should be hitting the dealers sometime in July.

Freedom, so only has a driver seat, so you get to go and have fun alone, not forced to take others.

they started making the Freedom Edition back in 2003. It comes with a cool sticker on the side.

Your web site lists a Wrangle Freedom Edition that I am interested in,
yet
none of the dealerships I have contacted know anything about it. It is
also list as Model 23F when you build a Wrangler through the USAA and
KBB.com web sites. Can you clear the confusion over this model? When
will
it be available? Thank you.

I'm talking about a 2012 Limited Edition model, the 23F Oscar Mike Package! Seems to be the best kept secret at Chrysler Corporate! None of the Dealerships I have talked to know anything about it, yet it's an option on the USAA and KBB.com websites when you build a new Wrangler!

That's beautiful!! I inquired about it also. Going to test drive one later this week but they modify it for you if you like.

It is nice, we looked at one in person this past weekend and my wife felt it looked too Army, and being as I'm retired Air Force she didn't think it was me... The True Blue was different than I expected as well, it had too much of a purple hue to it. I preferred the Patriot Blue on my 04, they should have gone with that shade of blue IMO.

Anyway, we found a nice 2012 JK Sport and went with it. The best price I was quoted on the Freedom Edition was around $28,500, we got the Sport for $22,115, so I'm happy! I also found a set of 5 Sport "S" Package tires and wheels with only 2600 miles on them for $400 on Craig's List, so minus some stickers and embroidering, I got nice JK and saved a good bit of cash...
