My Jeep Rocks! - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
By jimmy guns - March 16 - 12:20 amMy Wrangler is just the best! Ive gone out hunting in places where you see Chevys and Ford trucks park and their owners walk! In November, a couple of my buddies and me went to our version of "the Dunes", and the Jeep never let me down once!

By ROBIN - July 23 - 10:00 amBOUGHT MY JEEP A COUPLE OF MOTHS AGO, AFTER YEARS OF WANTING ONE. ALL OF MY FRIENDS LOVE IT, MAKES ME WONDER WHY THEY DONT ALL JUST GET ONE. LOOKS SHARP, ESPECIALLY W/ THE WINDOWS OUT AND/OR THE TOP DOWN.

Its a Jeep Thing. . . - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
By CJs TJ - June 27 - 6:16 amBefore I bought my 02 Wrangler Sport, I used to see the slogan "Its a Jeep thing, you wouldnt understand." Since owning it I do understand. Nothing compares to going off-road, climbing over hills and rocks, plowing through water or mud that is fender high, just to commune with Mother Nature. One thing I will say, the more you want to play, the more you pay. The acronym fits JEEP - Just Empty Every Pocket, but its been worth every penny.

Fun Fun Fun - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
By Julia Rhodes - December 21 - 2:00 amEver since I was a little girl I wanted a Jeep, actually a CJ-7. When I turned 20 I bought my Wrangler and I love it. I cant wait until the summer time so I can get that top off!

Love this thing - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
By ksimon - November 26 - 10:00 amMy first jeep. Bought it used but youd never know it to look at it or drive it. I love this thing. Flame red is about as attractive a color as Ive seen. Far more comfortable to drive then my "non jeep" friends warned me it would be. For the first time in my life I am anxiously awaiting a huge snow storm.

Perfect Description - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
By TP - August 31 - 10:00 amYes the exterior mirrors paint comes off, yes the plastic windows scratch, yes the gas mileage is crummy, yes the interior is cheap, yes the sound system is inferior, yes the ride is bumpy, yes the tires clamshell, yes the softop is a pain, yes you need two people to change back the hardtop, yes the cargo room is small, and yes, I have bought two Jeeps in a row, because the driving experience is something to look forward to every time you get into it, from the day you buy it to your last day with it. Open air driving is incredible. Not worrying about every tiny imperfection, getting a little dog hair in it - priceless. Its stress free driving. Every time.

Not bad but could much better - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
By mrroofer - August 14 - 10:00 amThis is one of my Play toys, and does what needs to do. But my first new Jeep (CJ-5) I bought in 79 was better because of the 304 V-8 power. I get the same MPG it did, at about 15- 17 mpg

Great Jeep - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
By Apolinaras - July 22 - 10:00 amGreat convertible/SUV. How many people can say they own a car that is convertible during summer and SUV during winter. Plus, Jeep Wranglers hold their value, KBB and other places might undervalue than in their first years after build, but I havent seen them sell one themselves ;-)

My Jeep - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
By Jim - July 5 - 3:43 amThis is a fun vehicle to drive, is excellent in the mud or sand. Handles well off road and living in Florida, I ride with the top down 80 percent of the year. One of the best things about a Jeep, is I can pretty much go anywhere I like without worries of getting stuck.

Sahara4x4 - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
By Bykryd - March 26 - 2:56 pmExcellent performance. The soft top is the weak link, as the Florida sun bakes the stitching and the roof falls apart. The engine is solid V 6 and only needed the head gasket replaced at 100,000 miles. Other maintainence was within normal limits.
