    I have found that my Jeep Wrangler is a go anywhere I want to go Vehicle. IN the eight years that I have owned my Jeep It has done everything I wanted it to do. I have Rechievecd three quarter ton exten cab pick -ups from the bottom of 4x4 trails to winching other jeeps off logs and out of seven foot deep ditches. I find it quite manuverable with plenty of power to spare.

  • Poor Quality Costs the company - 2004 Jeep Wrangler
    By -

    The Jeep Wrangler has been the icon vehicle since its introduction in WW2. My first experience as a Jeep owner has been a bad one. The manual trans is hard to shift and pops out of gear constantly. It also occationally wont shift into a gear for whatever reason. I took mine to a dealer 4 times and Jeep "can find a problem". I also have the dual top version. Believe it or not the Hard top leaks worse than the soft top in a car wash. I was actually told by Jeep that "convertables leak" and I shouldnt go through car washes. I have had several convertables, and the Wrangler leaks like there is a window open.

    Bought used in 2008 with 66000 miles. Had my X for over 2 years now and never a problem. My wife says it rides rough but its a Jeep. Cant think of anything more fun to drive than a Jeep Wrangler X with the top down, except in a rain storm (had that happen) and here in Texas its often too hot to keep the top down. This is my first Jeep and its a great vehicle! Id recommend a Wrangler X to anyone who wants to have fun while driving, you wont be disappointed!

    This is my third jeep(cj then yj then tj) and they keep getting better. The ride is much improved and it is much quieter. Some people who complain about that are in the wrong vehicle-it is a rugged off-road vehicle after all. Of course the mileage is not great- no real 4-wheel drive vehicle gets high mileage. There is nothing like the wrangler on the road today. If you want a unique and fun vehicle, this is it.

    this is an awesome car. Although, it is a bit loud with the soft top on at high speeds and the handling is pretty bad at high speeds as well. This car is very fun to drive on and off the road. Great for anyone.

    I have owned 8 wranglers over the years. They are the most reliable go anywhere vehicle around. Owning a Jeep Wrangler is a love affair. There is no in between.Its off road capability is the best I have seen. Its rugged,good looking in a boxy kind of way.

    I have been a proud Jeep owner since 1998 and I wouldnt trade my Jeep in for anything in this world! I love it. It has been the best thing I have ever driven. You go Jeep!!

    This Unlimited rides TONS better than my old 1997 Wrangler when it was stock. After I saw the extra room, I had to have one. It is nice to be able to fit more than 4 paper sacks of groceries behind the seats. Overdrive is a nice improvemnt over the 3 Speed Auto. It seems to roll in corners less than my old stock 97 Wrangler did. Went through some windy roads near LaGrande, Washington and I was really impressed with the improvment in handling. Dont get me wrong, it is still a Jeep, but it is much better than my old one.

  • You get it all in the Rubicon - 2004 Jeep Wrangler
    By -

    I traded a Wrangler Sport for my Rubicon. I found that the Rubicon would go where the Sport would only try to go ...without adding a lift, tires, and lockers. This Rubicon is simply a better stock Jeep. It has the same great features as the Sport such as the covertible top, ease in parking, and fun driving. In addition, I found that it will go off- road where the Sport could only dream of going with the Rubicons stock front and rear lockers, 16 wheel set, and the additional lift to accomodate the 31 wheels. This Rubicon is truly the Jeep that I would expect all Jeeps to be.
