My 2nd one

I am coming up on the end of my lease of my jeep and will probably negotiate a buy. I have had no major mechanical problems at all in 5 years. It's great in the summer and really great in the winter, and here in Ohio, those are huge plusses. Two slight negatives: it's a bumpy ride unless you are the driver, and the gas milage isn't great, but those are both offset by the tremendous fun and practicality factors. This is my 2nd Wrangler (1991) and I'll probably get another one. This one was tons better!

My Jeep is great. Most fun vehicle I've ever driven. 20 mpg. Great in snow, great in the summer too with top off. Awesome vehicle.

Best Car I ever owned

Other than a cracked manifold, I have not had major repairs. One single rust spot. I painted myself and covered with a cheap rocker panel. It actually improved the appearance and practically looks new. Hard to believe it's 10 years old.

My Jeep is the best vehicle I have had. I have, unfortuatley, been rear-ended twice with absolutly no damage to the Jeep at all. It's stock but still a beast off-road, gas isn't too bad. It takes me 45(give or take) to fill up and I get about 250 to a tank around town. 100 miles on the freeway uses about 1/4 tank. The convienence of the soft top is great and fun! I definitely suggest anyone have one at some point in their life at the least!
