2007 Jeep Wrangler X review from North America
"Love It!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No problems yet.
General comments?
My first Jeep, and I couldn't be happier. The ride is surprisingly luxurious, but the car still feels like it could handle the Rubicon trail with ease.
I got the 6-speed manual. The transmission has a little bit of a "trucky" feel to it, but is still smooth.
I love the Freedom hardtop. Experienced Jeep owners may still want to go totally topless, but the convenience of popping out the panels (one each over the driver & passenger, and one over the whole back seat) you want without having to take the whole top off is really nice. The only drawback is there isn't much storage space for all three panels, if you have passengers in the back seat.
The X comes with several option packages; I got the 17" inch wheels (definitely sharp looking), the 7-speaker sound system (superb), and the driver's side height adjustable front seat. For a five-foot-nothing female, that height adjustment is great.
If this Wrangler is as reliable as my Subaru was, it may just be the perfect blend of comfort and ruggedness.
