Default Advice on 1st Wrangler Purchase

Morning All

Looking at my first purchase and chasing advice/feedback/direction. The below are just examples and not necessarily exact cars I will consider. but all good examples of the rubicon (3. vs crd vs pentastar.

It is a daily but i do a lot of fishing/touring and also mud/rock serious 4wd (say 20,000km a year)

Any advice would be welcomed around which direction to take and anything to be weary off or needing to be done re engine etc

Pre 2012 Rubicon (possibly 2012 but unlikely to find auto) - stock as a rock so would need suspension, tyres, dual batt, roof rack $22-28k

CRD Auto - heavily modded, likely need roof rack/dual batt. Lockers at some stage $35-30k

2012 3.6 - some mods - likely need roof rack, dual batt, lockers $25-30k
