Very fair responses all. Very fair. I salute you pretty fendered, color matched HT Sahara owners. You know how to wheel and mall crawl I style!

Cool

I have 70th Anniversary Sahara and why it can't be two in one? . I'm a soccer mom and guess what? Pretty much every weekend I go off-roading with my kids and other Jeepers. During the week I drive my dusty bad boy doing errands. In the future I'll modify it but for now I got just a CB radio...

If I don't wheel as much as you, but wheel moderately when I can, does that make me a mall crawler?

And I honestly don't mind being called a mall crawler if I don't meet other people's "standards" about how much I off-road. To that I say "whatever"

Ok folks, time for me to get outta my own thread LOL

I just wanted to reiterate that my ORIGINAL question was: do you think the Sahara was targetted at the mass-market? To draw in more people, not necessarily just Jeep enthusiasts and off-roaders.

The answers back, while mostly entertaining and witty, were misdirected and many people took offense, thinking I was calling THEM mall-crawlers for buying Saharas. It's not true but I guess the banter it sparked was mostly amusing

Thanks for the good times, but I think it's time to put this dead horse to pasture. If I offended anyone, "no offense" . I think you're all cool (even muddenjeep and jk.bushwacker that has been busting my chops lately). Jeep on! And say no to malls!

To answer your question. Yes, all jeeps are made to sell in mass market. It's just your preference on what to choose to entice you to buy. Mass market selling and to keep cost low is why we have crappy engines etc. If they wanted to really target jeep enthusiasts or hardcore jeepers they would come out with a diesel with 37s and d60s. So "we" are not the norm.
