General comments?
I recently purchased a very clean Wrangler YJ with 91,000 miles on the odometer. The vehicle was very well equiped;hard top, air conditioning, tilt wheel, sound bar, splash graphics etc. I was amazed at how well the interior and exterior had held up over seven years. The interior appears absolutely brand new. Showing no wear whatsoever. The paint is glossy and show no signs of cracking or peeling.
Mechanically the vehicle appears to have been well maintained. Starting and running like new. My Wrangler is a fun ride, with my only complaints being the creaks and rattles within the interior. But hey this is a Jeep!
To me, the Wrangler is a very well made, tough vehicle which should never be confused with a luxury ride. It can go places most other vehicles can't, and it can brave the toughest of driving conditions. The six cylinder engine has plenty of power, and I enjoy the five-speed transmission coupled with the 4 liter. It's a fun combo.
People should go into buying a Jeep knowing what it is. It's not a four-wheel-drive Camry, nor a Miata.
Owning a Jeep can be a great experience.
