97 tj sport 5 speed at 20 loved it! Loved the color, it was the teal. Got picked on for it but I didn't care!
2010 jku sport 6 speed bought new at 25 now 28 and still loving it! I do wish it was the color of my 97 though, but I do like my silver. It hides everything!!!

2014 Rubicon Unlimited, Leather , Loaded, I am 59. The 15th Jeep vehicle I have had since 1975, This does not include the I believe 1955 Jeep pickup of my grandpa that I learned to drive in, or the Jeep wagon about he same year model that my dad had. I have been around Jeeps as long as I can remember.
I also have a 2008 Wrangler Unlimited Sport, that I am putting some mesh type doors and bikini top on to keep at the family bay house.

Some stats I was told by a neighbor that is a sales manager for a local Jeep dealership. Less than 10% of vehicle buyers of a new JK/U are under the age of 25. The average age, 60% or so are between 35 and 45. The main reason is price, being that the average for a JK/U is running $29k (all trim levels rolled into one number and averaged out). Not many under 25 these days can afford a payment on a $29k vehicle.
The interesting thing is the second owner is usually between 25 to 30 and buying vehicles that are roughly three years old. Mostly the off lease vehicles.
I fall into the 60% with a 13 JKU. My fourth Jeep first JK.
