Why are there so many 4x2s out there?

I figure when we really get the off roading bug we will invest in a CJ7.

That would be miss print. It had 4300 miles on it.
thats what happens when you are typing and having your kids climbing all over you.

people like my wife, a 2wd woudl suit just fine. Her Tahoe is 2wd... I wanted a 4wd, but it was gonna be hers and I was gonna keep my tools away from it... (yea right) sooo we got her a 2wd. (crack whip)

it just opens up to a bigger market for Jeep. I think, that they may be sticking to what every other builder has for years.... is that 4wd models make up the minority.

exactly how or why... i cant say, but I bet if you tallied all the orders Jeep took for JK Unlimited's, I'd bet a vast majority were 4wd models. who knows for sure but the big brass themselves....

A few years back when I was stationed in Alaska and spent a great deal of my time on the ALCAN border, I found out that Canada made legal the following items: Same Sex Marriage, the use of Herion and Marijuana. It must of been the Herion usage that somebody said that they were not going to sell 2wd Jeeps.

It wasnt that it was that our roads and infrastructure suck ... Ive said it before and ill say it again.. Some people calling it Offroading I call it Driving to Work.... lol... And in most redneck centralized areas we would laugh at a 4X2 Jeep not out of disrespect but we would wonder why they named it after a piece of Lumber... 2X4 ... 4X2 whats the difference
