IF...I were to get a Jeep...

[evillecutter]

i drove a 2012 wrangler 4 door as a rental with 4k miles (now about 5k) on it for the last week and a half - i would take my vx over it any day - kinda cool to take all the doors off though

I really like alot of what Jeep has come out with in the past couple years.

I agree, the Jeep line up keeps getting better & better.

I drove an old CJ7 10 years ago, and while Just Empty Every Pocket might not *actually* be what Jeep stands for, it was certainly true in my case. Went through 2 transmissions and an engine rebuild in under 2 years. I had to sell it or go broke. To be fair though, it definitely held it's value--I got more for it than I put into it in the end.

I had a YJ and it was horrible in reliablity, comfort, & power. I was very happy when I sold it and moved on to the VX. The wranglers today are much improved on/off road and the new pentastar engine seems to have fixed there one major flaw.

The Compass is my wife's car and it is indeed a "car" with a 4high transfer case. It's been good on reliability, gas mileage (28 MPG), and drives great in the snow. It's fine but I'm hoping she'll want something a little more exciting for her next car... maybe her own Vehicross?? She was pretty impressed after Moab.

What do you think about the jeep truck?

I like it.

I saw one at the dealer all tricked out just like the picture, so I checked it out. It was listed at $50,000+. After I saw that, I slowly crept away.

Peace.

What they have not told you is that they have a flaw with the cylinder head and its a recall waiting to happen. And for those experiencing the misfires they are currently replacing them with a new flawed head. I work for a Jeep dealer

I dig the utility of the 4 door ones because you can actually carry more than 1 person, but they charge FAR too much for a plastic box

Yeah, I heard something about that. Chrysler will never learn.

I just saw a reliability survey for 3-year old vehicles (2009s), the bottom 4 brands were Ram, Jeep, Dodge, and Chrysler. Pathetic.
