1986 Jeep CJ7 Laredo review from North America
"There's only one..."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Besides everything, nothing.
New:
Alternator.
Steering box.
Steering pump.
Clutch.
Carburator.
Distributor and coil.
Seats.
Console.
Tires.
Wheels.
Top.
Need I go on...
General comments?
I have loved Jeeps sence I was 2 years old. There is something about a Jeep that makes me have to have one. Maybe it is the ever present leaking oil and broken parts (performance enhancement oppertunities).
But it is probably the fact that you can take the top and doors off on a sunny day and drive like you own the world. Or the fact that nothing can stop you, on or off roads (except a gas station). Or maybe it's just the fact that they are the coolest vehicles on the road. I really don't know anyone who doesn't like my Jeep.
