2009 Jeep Wrangler X 2dr SUV 4WD (3.8L 6cyl 6M)
Review
After been deploy in many locations. I look for a vehicle that was reliable and fun to drive and that vehicle was the JEEP WRANGLER with 2S pack 4X4. The vehicle can climb anything and do anything.I just love it and cant wait until summer comes so i can put the top down. I learn how to drive standard in a Army 1/4 ton JEEP back in 1989. We just have a relationship that have make me fall in love with this icon .
Favorite Features
The lifetime warranty,The off-road capability, been able to take the top and doors off and the knowledge that I am driving the best know vehicle in the world.
Suggested Improvements
I would say that fuel economy.

I have NEVER owned a Jeep before and I am so happy with my purchase. I also have a 2008 Dodge Hemi Quad Cab through this dealership. Although the two vehicles are night and day...I'd rather be in the Jeep! It is the best riding vehicle I have ever owned. I will never own anything ever else! Thanks for building a wonderful and AMERICAN made product!!!

Review
The best feature of the Jeep is it's ability to go through anything. It has great ground clearance, a solid four wheel drive system, and room for four with plenty of gear. That being said I have been disappointed by the cheap grade hard plastic interior, weak engine performance, and white knuckle highway driving experience.
Favorite Features
Navigation System is outstanding, exterior look, and go through anything ability
Suggested Improvements
Upgraded interior with softer touch surfaces, window controls on door trim panels, More powerful engine or diesel option, improved NVH, improved back seat angle (less upright), relocate rear sub-speaker out of the cargo area.

Review
I bought my Jeep Wrangler to drive in winter. Although I have not driven it in poor weather yet, I really love my Jeep! It is so much fun to drive. I sit up high but do not feel at all like it is a big car! The controls are very convenient and easy to use.
Favorite Features
4-wheel drive, big tires
Suggested Improvements
better gas mileage

Review
I bought my X sight unseen via email with my dealer. I took the only X they had at the time. I have wanted one for quite awhile and have been completely happy with my purchase. It's is so much fun to take the top down and just drive. Mileage is 20-21 which is good. I bought it for the winter snow, but am sure I won't be able to wait for spring.
Favorite Features
Sunrider soft top V6/6speed
Suggested Improvements
Radiator needs more protection from road debris due to the large gaps in the grill.

2009 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4dr SUV 4WD (3.8L 6cyl 6M)
Review
I traded my 200 Silverado single cab z- 71 for this vehicle because of a growing family. I love the jeep and have ever since I rented one for a week. This thing gets so many looks and is very capable off road. I really love that it can fit two car seats in it and I can still feel like a real man...lol.
Favorite Features
I love the 3-piece hard top, the axles and 4.10 gears. I also can't wait until it's lost its life as a family vehicle so I can transform it into something much more superior.
Suggested Improvements
I would like to see a v-8, or even a larger v-6. I'm averaging about 15.7mpg, and would like to see that improved or stay the same with more power. My 5.3L vortec v8 got 14-15mpg and had way more power and was a heavier vehicle.

2009 Jeep Wrangler Sahara 2dr SUV 4WD (3.8L 6cyl 6M)
Review
We purchased the jeep to tag along with our RV. It has been the perfect choice. My wife loves the way it drives around town, its comfortable on the highway. We have been able to go places that we never could have in a less capable vehicle. We are now able to go on unimproved/unmaintained service roads in MT, and CO to do hiking and photography. The gas mileage is much better than expected. We have never gotten less than 20mpg, over the road I get 24+, and of course my wife gets 26+. She just has a gentler right foot. Its getting to the point now that if I want some "Jeep" time I might have to get one for myself. We are thinking of getting small trailer, and heading up to Alaska in 2010.
Favorite Features
The freedom it gives us to go places that would be impossible to reach in a less capable vehicle. We have done some hiking that was impossible before. The ride, and handling is excellent much better than expected. We are really pleased with the gas milage, after the terrible reports we had heard.
Suggested Improvements
Having driven manual transmissions all my life this is my first automatic. My wife insisted. While I am finding the auto is better on rough uneven roads I miss the engine braking. I would like to see some sort of exhaust brake or computer programed downshifting. So it would not freewheel downhill.

Review
I have wanted a Jeep since high school and when I reach 65 I bought a Wrangler X 2 door 4WD. I really love driving the Jeep, my wife drives a lincoln and I have not driven her car since buying my Jeep. In fact she had to go out of town last week and asked if she could drive my Jeep. I get between 20 and 21 MPG driving about 65 MPH. I have the 24S option which has every thing I wanted. I will use it as my tailgate vehicle this fall and look forward to talking about my SOONER red Jeep.
Favorite Features
I really like the soft top and the ease of driving in town and on the road, the wind, and we have a lot of wind in Oklahoma, is no problem. The sound system with the speakers on the roll bar is great.
Suggested Improvements
More interior storage would be great and front fender extensions to keep mud and dirt off of my doors would be great. Otherwise I can't think of anything to make my Jeep better

Review
It is nothing fancy but what a fun car to own. Have both a Wrangler and BMW 750i. Would much rather drive the Jeep. Nothing better than cruising around with the top down on a Saturday afternoon. I highly recommend this vehicle. Get ready to wave at all the other Jeep owners. You are part of a family.
Favorite Features
Nice Engine with plenty of power. Solid 4 Wheel Drive powertrain. Great Lifetime warranty.
Suggested Improvements
Better Gas Mileage would be nice. The top takes awhile to take down and put back up.
