  why does it continually leak water - 2006 Jeep Wrangler
  By steve - September 12 - 8:30 am

  I bought the vehicle in August of 06 and now, in December, it has already been in the shop 4 times for a total of 32 days. Before I had purchased this vehicle I had wanted to own one for years. Now all I want to do is get rid of the headache. Its still not fixed and it does not seem that it ever will be. The dealership wants to keep trying to "fix" the issue, but its never going to be done properly.

  "old brown shoes" - 2006 Jeep Wrangler
  By rkcohen - July 21 - 2:00 am

  Zero problems with this 63,000 miles Jeep. Routinely get 21-22 mpg back and forth to work, same on the highway - a little touchy at highway speeds, but great to drive to the beach, top-down!

  Great Vehicle - 2006 Jeep Wrangler
  By Anthony - June 26 - 1:06 am

  This is a great vehicle and it rides better than the short wheel base version. I have already driven it from the east coast out to Kansas City. It works great in the mountains or on the coast. I did have a leaking door seal that took a while for the dealership to figure what was leaking and from where, but once they found it they fixed it very quickly.

  Its a Jeep Thing - 2006 Jeep Wrangler
  By Doug - March 29 - 8:13 am

  This is my first new Jeep. I owned 2 used ones previously. I love it. We needed a new vehicle and I held out for the Jeep. Very happy I did. I like its build quality and simplicity. Just got around to installing the soft top and am wondering why I waited so long! Much better than the older ones, at least to me. Sunridre feature is cool. I am 51 and this is my "toy". My wife and I plan to get out into the Jersey Pine Barrens (once my daughter gets her license and we have the time.) Just wish I had the manual transmission, but the auto is ok.

  Its definitely a Jeep thing! - 2006 Jeep Wrangler
  By Terminator - March 27 - 11:16 am

  I love this Jeep. It is amazing what it can do off road. One of my favorite things to do is ride with the top down and the doors off. I have been impressed with how reliable this vehicle has been. I have had better service with this Jeep than I have had with my high end imports. I now have 20k on it and its still going with no issues.

  Very Happy - 2006 Jeep Wrangler
  By JJ - February 21 - 9:06 pm

  Rides much smoother than anticipated. I drive mostly on the highway and its averaging 23-24mpg. The versatility of the vehicle, the styling, and the history of Jeep has made me a fan.

  Awesome - 2006 Jeep Wrangler
  By Dan - December 30 - 4:50 am

  This is my 5th Wrangler. 1997, 2000, 2004 and a 2006 were all new. I also had a 1995 used. You can no way beat a Wrangler in the snow or off road. The gas mileage has a bit to be desired but its worth it for the fun you have. The 95, 97, 00, all had a 2.5 liter 4 cylinders. great 4 cylinders. The 04 had a 2.4 liter, and I had to downshift on every little slope. The 2.4 lacks a lot compared to the 2.5. My 06, which I bought a week ago. is a 4.0 liter and just screams. It wants to go. The 6 speed tranny is great also. No downshifting anymore. Id recommend a Wrangler to everyone.

  06 Unlimited Rubi - 2006 Jeep Wrangler
  By Jeep4fun - August 21 - 5:00 pm

  Incredibly capable; has never failed. Has allowed me to see lots of scenery unavailable to most people. Even on a long road trip it was more bearable than expected. The combination of reasonable road manners with unparalleled off-road ability works perfectly for me. Fuel economy is worse than imaginable.

  2005 Jeep Wrangler X model - 2006 Jeep Wrangler
  By Nick - August 19 - 5:50 pm

  Great little vehicle, fun too. Not the smoothest ride but I knew that before I bought it. I get about 16-18 MPG, not the best in the world for a 6 cylinder, but not too bad either.
