I purchased my 2007 JK before the Lifetime warranty started. So I purchased it for $900 with a $0 deductable but this price was only good till Oct 31 2007.
you can still get it but now it costs double $1800.

My biggest gripe about my first JK was it was in the shop for 52 days out of the first 11 months I owned it. It probably would've been more if I had time to babysit it every time it filled up with water or the engine intermittently shut off.

Isn't that the truth!Change the oil regularly, keep it in tune, buy quality mods, don't hash it up on the trail, fix the items you break and for the most part you should be ok.

actually it's quite the opposite, it is the strongest Jeep ever built.

Jeeps ain't been worth a damn since Bantam stopped making them.
Jeeps ain't been worth a damn since they went from 9 slots to 7.
Jeeps ain't been worth a damn since they dropped the Hurracane.
Jeeps ain't been worth a damn since they moved the spare from the side to the back.
Jeeps ain't been worth a damn since the removed the shovel mount from the side.

ad nauseum

Just look at a JK with a lift and some bigger meats. They look tough as hell!

i wish that jeep owners would stop arguing with one another and focus on the real enemies here. i.e. Hummers, Land Rovers, and Toyotas.... i have no problem with real land rovers like the defender and its various forms over the years, but the defender hasn't been in the US in over a decade now and a range rover is over $80k now...
jeep owners should unite and be glad that all forms of jeeps are not hummers
