1999 Jeep TJ SE review from North America
"Best SUV ever built"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear windshield wiper stopped working.
Paint chipped off of the side door mirror.
General comments?
I have wanted a jeep TJ since I started paying attention to cars. The TJ is my first car and I could not be any happier. The 4X4 can get you into anything and out of anything. It turns on a dime and accelerates quickly. Parking the TJ is a joke. I went with the 2.5L mainly for gas consumption and turned out to be better than I anticipated. The rumour of it being underpowered is untrue if you keep the car between 2500 and 3000 RPM. This car handles excellent in winter and is fantastic in summer. What more could you ask for than a truck when driving in 15 cm of snow, and a convertible when driving in midsummer heat. The beauty of it is you won't find another car like it on the road. It has kept its distinct style since its early ancestors. You Can't find a better all round car than the TJ. I love my jeep and will more than likely purchase more in the future.
