1996 Jeep Wrangler Sahara review from North America

Vent door stopped working for top vents. Cost nearly $400 to fix.

Exhaust Manifold is cracked.

I love my Jeep! Considering the miles, I think it has held up really well. I love the manual transmission, although it takes awhile to get used to it. I had a 1994 Jeep Cherokee Country before and I liked it too, but I like my Wrangler better. I have a hard top for it and had an aftermarket soft top that I am going to sell. If you are going to get a soft top get a factory one. Don't waste the time with the crappy aftermarket ones. I am so sad that the Sahara name wasn't continued to 2005. I am still not sold on the Unlimited. If I buy another one, (which I will), I will get a either a black Rubicon or another used Sahara. I would highly recommend this vehicle to anyone. I drive about 70 miles a day and I still love it. Definitely go with a hard top for winter driving. The rear wiper and defroster are great too. When the Jeep is all waxed and shined up it is one of the most timeless, gorgeous vehicles on the road.
