Why didn't I buy one sooner?
My Wrangler Unlimited has brought my love of driving back. What other vehicle excites you enough to make you think about it all day at work? What other vehicle makes you feel like a kid again ... you know right after getting your first new bike when all you do is daydream about being on it? Here's my stress relief even with today's higher gas prices; hey, we all need a vice, right? Mine is spending money on gas but the fun it returns is well worth it! After work, top down, drive home with cool breeze and tunes flowing, dinner, get the kids and wife loaded in, drive the country back roads flying over bumps and raising dust to a small town ice cream shop. Drive home with stars above; kids asleep.
My Jeep
So far I'm getting about 19 mpg. The ride is a little stiff but fun. My only dislike is that I decided to get the 4 cylinder for gas mileage. For performance, that was not the best idea. This vehicle is slow.
Still going strong 14 years later
Bought this Jeep off the dealer floor with 6 miles on it and it's been a very reliable vehicle. It hasn't been without its problems, but it IS 14 years old. Its required some shop work over the years: PCM went out, all four O2 sensors and plugs with both catalytic converters, replaced rear main seal, and some death wobble issues that have been worked on more than once. All in all, I'm still happy with this vehicle as I've still got it!

Love my jeep
I love my jeep, don't get me wrong I have spent a lot of money in aftermarket parts, lift, wheels & tires, bumpers, lights, etc. But I love to drive this vehicle

The original offroader, still the best.
A little under powered with a 4 cyl. But it still pulls a trailer without much effort. Fun to drive. It was never built as a heavy road truck for the family covered with off road clothing.It was built for what it delivers.
