  The Best Car Ever - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By this car stinks - December 27 - 10:00 am

  The Jeep brand is already the best type of car available, but the new TJ takes the cake. It is perfect in every catagory exept fuel economy, but hey, it is an SUV right? I hate all that Honda and Toyota SUV crap because its not real. That goes for pretty much every other SUV on the market as well. It is freeing to drive with the top down and music from the soundbar, almost like a religious experiance exept better. This thing cannot be beat. It is the best offroad vehicle in the world. Dont be fooled any imitations, get a Jeep.

  Great underrated vehicle! - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By cpsteam - November 20 - 10:00 am

  I have had my jeep for just a few months and it has been more fun than my wildest expecations. I ordered it from the factory and still got it close to 500 under invoice. I have alot of MOPAR and aftermarket options including BFG AT KO 31 inch tires on the canyon rims (A GREAT COMBO.) These tire work great in the desert. Only slight negatives is that it can be a little loud above 70 on the highway with high local winds, and a little bit to handle do to the high profile. Basically, unless you need to move alot of people or cargo..........the TJ is an OUTSTANDING vehicle and a really great value.

  Great ride - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By Moondogs - August 22 - 2:00 am

  I have had my jeep for two years and love it. Its best for around town and especially with the bikini top on in summer. Always a fun, reliable ride. Ive taken it on a couple of all day trips and dont recommend it. Lots of wind noise; I drive my corvette on any long trips now. 13,000 miles and everything is perfect.

  2002 2.5L 4CYL Wranger SE - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By raider88 - August 8 - 6:30 am

  This Jeep was driven at Camp Jeep 2003 in the Blue Ridge mountains. Its been through all kinds of trails and weather. This was even good in the snow for a lightweight. I recommend to everyone the following: Get rid of the Goodyear tires! Since I got 215/75/15 BFG AT KO tires, the Jeep has handled even better and it doesnt slip in the rain. Also get a tow hitch and replace the bumpers. I hope to travel south to the Ynes Mountains for Camp Jeep 2005 in California. I did purchase the sliding glass half upper doors from Quadratec.

  My Jeep Rocks! - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By jimmy guns - March 16 - 12:20 am

  My 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!

  BOUGHT 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 am

  Before 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 am

  Ever 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!

  Great Jeep - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By Apolinaras - July 22 - 10:00 am

  Great 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 ;-)

  Sahara4x4 - 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  By Bykryd - March 26 - 2:56 pm

  Excellent 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.
