  Fun in the sun - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By Fireman Steve - May 8 - 10:53 pm

  For the most part, this is a fun vehicle to own. Keep in mind, however, that for some, a vehicle is a long term investment and you have to think about where you will be at 5 or even 10 years down the road of life. If you dont plan on taking many long trips, needing space for cargo, or many passengers, and if you can afford the gas, go for it. It is exceptionally fun to take the top down, go off road, and also handles great in the snow. If you have a family, take a lot of long trips, or feel the need for a smooth ride going to and from work, you may want to consider something a little bigger. I have had a Jeep Cherokee in the past which has many of the same capabilities as the wrangler.

  UAV - Urban Assult Vehicle - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By 97JeepTJ - March 7 - 10:00 am

  Five years and 62,000 miles and I still look forward to going - anywhere. 20 mpg new and still does it. 3.55 trac lock Dana. Feels like the old VW except it weighs twice as much and has 5 times the HP and A/C! Noise? I cant hear the noise. One recall for fuel sending unit. Had oil pressure sensor fail, replaced driver air bag and steering wheel both cosmetic, all covered by Jeep.

  Not Bad - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By My second wrangler - January 24 - 10:00 am

  If you are looking for something fun to drive with high versatility this is the vehicle. If you want a quiet reliable ride buy a foreign car. My previous 99 Wrangler had 20K miles, the electrical system had a short, the hard top was cracking. I traded that in for a Toyota Tacoma truck. The truck was built extremely well, but its still a truck. I traded the truck for a 01 Wrangler (currently with 19K miles). I just received my second recall notice, the main seal has failed (replaced after three trips to the dealer), the throwout bearings are making noise, and it shakes at 70 mph. Despite all this its very fun to drive and can go anywhere.

  Jeep Country - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By its.a.jeep.thing - October 26 - 6:03 am

  Its a Jeep things, either you love it or you hate it. Where Im from, the mountains are everything. My 2002 Wrangler X took me everywhere through the mountains. Going along with 10 - 20 other Jeeps through the mountains & the mud made my weekend full of excitement. The short wheel base making it easier to get over hills & through mud. Although taking it through woods & mud & sand & water has tore some things up on my Wrangler, everything was simpley fixed by me! [& "me" being a girl!] Some people may choose not to use their Wrangler as an everyday vehicle, but it was my "everyday vehicle". Sure, gas mileage wasnt the best, but having my Wrangler was worth every penny.

  will always have one - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By dzeppfan77 - October 2 - 10:00 am

  The Wrangler has been everything I expected and more. Its one of the funnest vehicles I have ever driven. It will take you just about anywhere you want to go. Jeep has been around since the 1940s so you know they are doing something right. You have to get a Jeep Wrangler.

  Simple and to the point, Jeep! - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By Yogi - September 4 - 3:00 am

  Roomy, quiet, smooth are not words that describe the Jeep Wrangler. But like no other vehicle close to its price will you get the fun go anywhere, open vehicle, invincible feeling you get every time you turn the key. The 4.0 6 cylinder leaves almost nothing to be desired. The ride is as good if not better than most small cars and pickups. Test drive it. You’ll either love it or hate it. Few people are in between. Opt. for the full doors over any other option

  So good, So far - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By Chris92307 - June 27 - 2:00 am

  This has been my first new vehicle purchased that did not have a warranty issue within the first 30 days. I have actually had none after 35000 miles. I wish I got the power of the gas the gas used but this thing is supposed to be off road. Even with the stock "tires" I was not scared to take it off road. Now that I put bigger tires on I can better a lot of dirt bikes when it comes to hills. This is the best vehicle I have owned and would reccomend it to anyone who wants to go off road.
