I'm very happy I bought my jeep. This is my first one, had it just over a year now and I drive it every chance I can. I almost prefer driving the jeep with the top down and the doors off to riding the motorcycle. I wish I had researched this particular one a bit more prior to buying it, I later found out it's got 3.21 gears in it. I probably would not have bought it if I knew that before hand. At least it has the 6 spd manual tranny in it so it's not too bad with stock tires but it will suck when I move up to bigger tires.

I love my jeep best thing i ever done was buy one. Ive got a 2006 pontiac grand prix that i daily drive and im trading it in on a 4 door after my 2 door is paid off. I daily drive 100 miles round trip though so i dont no may be better off keeping the car.

Trust me, keep the car for the daily 100 mile drive. The money you save on fuel will be worth it.

Since this is my third JK, I would have to say yes. I tried trading in the JK for a car and drove a family sedan for about a year, but coudn't stand not being in a Wrangler during the summer. I liked the car (especially the 30+ MPG) but I LOVE my gas sucking, leaky, underpowered Wranglers....

Love my jeep. Gas milage sucks a bit, but I only drive about 8kms a day to work and back. The only thing I don't like is buying my wife more gold and diamonds so she will let me mod it!
