2002 Jeep Wrangler Sahara 4WD 2dr Convertible SUV (4.0L 6cyl 5M)
Review
My second and LAST Jeep (also bought a 1997 Sport new). I've had nothing but trouble with Jeep Wranglers. Can't believe I was stupid enough to buy another after all the problems with the first. The 2002 Sahara wouldn't start the other day -- had to have it towed. I'm a little more than 3000 miles outside warranty, so the fuel pump module was a nice $600 treat! Mechanic said much is prematurely wrong with this vehicle after his inspection. Total bill $1195! BUYER BEWARE!

Owned just over 3 years. Never even one thing wrong with it. The ride in the backwoods is just as smooth as on the highway (rough!), but then I expected that. Cannot beat driving with the top down on a summer day. Gotta have the V6 -- people I know with the 4 cylinder are very sorry as itÂ’s underpowered. Not good gas mileage. Not a touring car.

This Jeep was driven at Camp Jeep 2003 in the Blue
Ridge mountains. It's 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 doesn't 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.

A Jeep is a Jeep -- you must know that
going in. It won't get good mileage, it
has a rough ride, and it is "plain
Jane" on the inside. But, IT'S A JEEP
and I love it. This is my second one
and it is just as much fun as the
first. I highly recommend a Jeep to
anyone who wants to have a true
original off-road vehicle.

The Jeep Wrangler is definetly not a
car for everybody, but for people that
like a fun ride and don't mind the
bumps, this car is great. The pro's
are that it has 4 wheel drive in the
winter and is a convertable in the
summer. So you get the best of both
worlds, and how many card do you know
that you can do that. Also I like the
feeling of freedom I get when I drive
this car. Every time I get into my car
it puts me in a good mood. The down
sides are, it is not really great for
groceries because there is not much
storage space. And sometimes people
complain about the bumpy ride. But all
in all for me it is a daily escape and
makes driving fun.

If you want to look good at the beach
or driving thru your neighborhood, get
a Wrangler Sport! Oh, and get one if
you want a plastic and cheap interior,
awful gas mileage, a hit or miss
transmission, absolutely no cargo room,
windows that scratch when you breathe,
ventilation that turns on and off
without turning it on or off, a cd
player that skips at every bump,
painful shocks, check engine light that
is always on, POOR Dealer SERVICE,
parts that RUST (screws, attachments on
vehicle exterior, windows) and if you
like replacing your windshield every
three months, GET A WRANGLER. I cannot
wait to get rid of this piece of
garbage.

I bought my 02 X and then customized.
This is a great way to build the
perfect offroad vehicle. I love this
car--and my kids (3 and 6) love it too-
-as does my wife. I have had no
problems AT ALL. This car is
perfectly designed for what it is--
though probably not for commuters :)
The car is unstoppable in snow and is
very well balanced. When it slides,
it slides well and enhances control.
The Jeep X is very low cost and can be
easily customized.

It is reliable and fun. Think of this 4
wheeler as a Harley with more
aftermarket accessories.
Drawbacks, small cargo space, plastic
dash, and you will have to downshift to
2nd gear to climb even the mildest of
hill inclines at highway speeds.
I have driven long distances twice
(1200 miles and 1600 miles) and it is
compariable as a standard cab small
pickup.
Mine is an 02 Sport but came with half
doors, Khaki paint, and low gears not
listed for 02. I think Jeep was
experimenting with my '02 and a half
Sport for the later Rubicon.

BOUGHT MY JEEP A COUPLE OF MOTHS AGO,
AFTER YEARS OF WANTING ONE. ALL OF MY
FRIENDS LOVE IT, MAKES ME WONDER WHY
THEY DON'T ALL JUST GET ONE. LOOKS
SHARP, ESPECIALLY W/ THE WINDOWS OUT
AND/OR THE TOP DOWN.

I have had my jeep for over 2 years
now, and I love it. It truly is a
legendary vehicle. It is a fun to
drive vehicle, and with the top and
doors off, it's open driving rivaling a
motorcycle. Although there are an
infinite amount of aftermarket mods
available, I encourage any owner to try
the stock vehicle's off road ability.
I have, and it is an amazing off road
vehicle.
