And an increasing number of owners are looking for ways to make theirs stand out. Mopar offers an array of upgrades for the convertible off-roader, but so do a growing number of aftermarket firms.
One of those is Austria-based Thaler Design, which has just released photos and details of its ActionCamper RV conversion kit for the Wrangler Unlimited, ditching the four-door body for something a bit more commodious to make the versatile SUV even more so.
After removing the rear doors, seat and roll cage, the company adds a fiberglass camper shell that features a removable pop-up extension. The whole kit adds a total of 440 pounds to the Wrangler Unlimited's weight once the aforementioned components have been removed. While the resulting camper-ute may look like it's about to tip over, the interior makes the awkward appearance worthwhile. Passengers are treated to amenities such as a refrigerator, stove, sink and even a toilet. Tack on a bunch of extra storage space, a four-gallon fresh water tank and a sewage tank and you're all set for a weekend retreat.
The price for the privilege? $53,500, which doesn't include the price of the donor Wrangler Unlimited. Which may leave the package out of reach for most customers, but then it certainly is cooler - and more versatile - than your typical RV.
