2003 Jeep Liberty Renegade review from North America
"Good price, good performance, but looks Girly"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing!
It's actually my mom's Jeep, but I have been impressed the number of times she "forced" me to drive it. I never liked it to begin with because of it's "girlish" styling, but after driving it more and more it grew on me. Then I took it off road and was thouroughly impressed. Aside form a low ground clearance and not the best of tires it does well for itself. With a few mods this could be a real off road machine.
General comments?
Off road is solid and has loads of power.
On road (when necessary) is fast and handles very well.
Doing 60 in the snow and ice is no prob.
Has very good acceleration for such low gearing and shifts nicely.
Its pretty, but to girly looking.
The light bar on top is awesome and it works!
Plus fog lamps.
I ran it into a rock and there wasn't even a mark!
Low ground clearance is hell for "serious" wheelin.
The generic all season Wrangler tires on it aren't to good off road, but handle nicely in snow and ice.
