I have owned over 20 cars/trucks in the 20+ years I've been driving and this JK has been the most fun and lovable vehicle I have ever owned hands down faults and all!!!!!!!

I've owned 4 different F150s in the past 12 years, 2 months ago my wife and I saw a white Sport S sitting at the dealer by our house one Saturday morning while coming back from breakfast. We pulled in just to see what it was like (neither one of us had been in a JK before). The salesperson let us take it for a long test drive, 2 hours after pulling onto the lot, it was mine and on the way home. I love it, especially doing all the little mods I've learned about on this forum plus thinking up a few of my own. I miss not being able to just chuck crap in the bed of a truck, but I think I'm a little more choosy about what I take along.
Bottom line, I am very happy!

I do like my wrangler most of the time. I do miss having a truck and some real power sometimes though.

Im very happy, mine is a toy for me, I'm fortunate enough to have a sport car for speed and full size pkups for hauling so my jk is perfect for giving mean fun time!

I would say that I am quite content with my Jeep. The thing that I really enjoy is pulling up to a restaurant and everyone outside staring and giving a thumbs up. Other times I really wish I had something with more power and space to tow and haul things.

My co-workers joke about how often I switch vehicles that they set up for an email to be sent out 2 years from the purchase date asking "still like the Jeep??" I bet I will!

Completely love the jeep, aside from it being an automatic (wife refuses to learn how to drive stick) and the fact that every time it rains I wake up to 1-2 inches of water puddling up on the floor boards. Jeep or not I don't really think that is acceptable for a $32,000 purchase. Aside from this what I purchased it for it is everything that I ever wanted.

Absolutely.. still glad I got another Jeep..

Two regrets.. I should have listened to my intuition and got the JKU.. I went for a second JK but I am getting a little tired of the lack of storage. Second regret..it burns so much fuel. I think I broke $600 for the month of November.

Other than that, I love my JK and don't see myself replacing it in a long time.

I traded in my Challenger for a JK this year and never regretted that decision. My kids love it and scream out JEEP every time we pass one on the road. How many vehicles can you think of that are fun in all seasons? 4wd in the winters.. Top down in the spring and fall. No vehicle has more upgrade and accessory options to choose from.
