This Year's Model Updates:

The 1999 Jeep Wrangler's interior finally enters the '90s with rotary HVAC controls, replacing the old slider control system. The hard- or soft top is available in Dark Tan, and new colors decorate both the exterior and the interior.

Pros:
  • Go-anywhere capability.
Cons:
  • Soft top is fun, but still a pain in the butt to operate.

  • Subpar Product - 1999 Jeep Wrangler
    By -

    Purchased Jeep Sport Jun 99. 30,000 mile service Dec 00. Apr 01 (37,000) exhaust manifold cracked. Thank goodness I had purchased an extended warranty or it would have cost $1000 to repair. (I believe part defectative but Jeep refused to refund $100 deductable for replacement.) Multiple problems since and will never buy a Jeep again!

    I bought this jeep as my second car. I had a Mazda but it was about to die and I didnt like it all that much. I bought this Jeep and i love it. Its a go anywhere do anything vehicle with so many options it will leave your head spinning. All of my friends and family love it and its reliable. Plus the insurance is the exact same as it was on my last car. Overall I love it to death.

  • Only in a Jeep - 1999 Jeep Wrangler
    By -

    Ive loved Jeeps for years and drove a CJ7 until it rusted out from under me. I bought this Wrangler used in 2002 with 27K and have loved every minute with it. It is rough to ride in, unrefined in almost every way and squirrely above 70 mph, but its a Jeep and wonderful to take off road and on a Summer day with the top down and the doors off theres nothing like it. Its been fairly reliable, but I do take it off road, so it does get a work out. Some repair work, but its not a money pit.

  • JEEPS RULE - 1999 Jeep Wrangler

    Jeeps are not the average day vehicle. it takes a certain personality type to own one. i am sure everyone has heard the line" my friend owns a Jeep". there is hardly another vehicle I would invest the kind of money into that i did with mine. It is one of a kind. Hard to do with a four banger Mustang. Love my jeep since i drove it off the show room floor.

  • A tough Departure - 1999 Jeep Wrangler
    By -

    3.5 years, 4.0 litre, 5 speed and I always loved it, however, except for traveling at speeds under 40, every passenger sees it as a trial of patience. GREAT offroad, but I have that oppty less than once every two months. It is great for a third car, not a daily driver

  • Buy a Jeep NOW! - 1999 Jeep Wrangler
    By -

    My Jeep has nearly 60000 miles and runs like new. I have the 4.0L 6 cylinder with a five speed manual. This combo is quick and works well in all conditions. At home on the highway, and will amaze you off-road. Controls are easy to use and well thought out. Take the top and doors off and its close to riding a motorcycle, but you dont need a helmet. This is the ultimate all around vehicle, great in the snow, awsome in the summer. Ill own no other. Buy one NOW!

  • It is a Jeep thing, and I understand. - 1999 Jeep Wrangler
    By -

    I have the 99 Sport with pretty much every option on it, including both tops. The list price was about $26,000. In addition, Ive added a 3 inch Teraflex lift and 33x10.5 BFGs on stock rims. The only problem I have had is the dash guages go dead now and them, but you pop the instrument cluster with your hand, and they come back. This is my 2nd Jeep (first was a Cherokee, also bought new and lifted) and if you take care of them, they will take care of you. No real problems to date.

  • THERE IS ONLY ONE...CHOICE THAT IS - 1999 Jeep Wrangler
    By -

    I have NEVER been so happy with a vehicle as I am with my Jeep - I have driven every SUV, van, sports car you can think of - but this jeep is just simply the most fun EVER to drive - I love that it requires the driver to "get used to it" because it sets it apart - kinda like it DEMANDS the driver to re-learn driving - and its cool to get nods and honks from other wrangler owners - kinda like joining a frat - ITS A JEEP THING - YOU WOULDNT UNDERSTAND - for the summer its great - you drop the top - for the winter - you laugh at snow - drop it in 4 wheel and go!

  • I take the LONG way home now!!!!! - 1999 Jeep Wrangler
    By -

    This was my first Wrangler so naturally I was apprehensive about the ride quality and the noise, but Im pleasantly surprised at both. The interior is very comfortable and everything is laid out nicely. The ride is a little rough, but better than I expected. The soft top can be noisy at high speeds but for its purpose it is suitable. The engine is the 2.4L I4 and lacks any real get up and go for lots of highway driving, but for city driving it is powerful enough. If I were to do it over again, Id buy the 6 cyl. model. Otherwise, like the title says, I intentionally find the long way home now--anything to spend more time driving my Jeep!!
