2004 Jeep Wrangler X review from North America
"Jeep Wrangler, it's not for everyone.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No problems found to date.
General comments?
I like the Jeep.
It happens to be my ninth jeep, starting with a 1948 Willy's wagon.
It was a bit on the underpowered side when new, but has seemed to adapt to my driving style after break in.
It has good throttle response and handles well.
I added a two inch lift right away and traded in the factory tires for 32" mud terrains.
This didn't seem to effect center of gravity to a noticeable point and the jeep corners quite well.
