Jeep has been on a tear lately, thanks entirely to the popularity of the Wrangler in the marketplace. The Jamboree kids at Jeep would like to give the Wrangler some help, and as such they’ve decided to price the all-new 2008 Liberty SUV below the outgoing model by an average of about $1,000. A base 2008 Jeep Liberty 4×2 will carry an MSRP of $20,990, which includes a $660 destination charge, when it arrives at dealerships later that summer. That’s $1,270 less than the 2007 model, according to Jeep. The 4×4 model, meanwhile, will start at $22,600, or $1,170 less than the current model. Finally, the range-topping Limited model will start at $25,175 for the

4×2 and $26,785 for the 4×4. The Liberty’s 3.7L V6 producing 210 horsepower and 235 ft-lbs. of torque will be a carryover from final year, but the new SUV can now be had with the industry first Sky Slider full-length open canvas roof for $1,200.
