The Wrangler is one of those vehicles that I hope to own at some point in my life for no other reason than it looks cool.

OK, who has stolen Shnak's handle and is posting under his name?? 

Certainly does not sound like the no-nonsense, sensible and practical poster we know....

Well a Wrangler is about the worst vehicle for my current needs, but down the road, when I can have 'fun' vehicles, the Wrangler will be given strong consideration.

That's OK, we all have momentary lapses from time to time. I actually went and looked at the 2011 Grand Cherokee this morning.

It's definitely a huge leap forward for Jeep with their two latest models.  I particularly like the look of the steering wheel... whoever designed that.  Thumbs up man!

Maybe he's acting on rumors that Hyundai is buying the Jeep brand.   

Godluvem all those Wrangler drivers.  The old ones handled like crap on the road.  No idea 'bout the newer ones.  How many other cars can you drive with no doors man!

I had a '92 YJ. Just brutal.

The new Wranglers are positively plush by comparison. Much better interior than the previous version.

Still sucks in the snow apparently.  Guy here has one (has always had them) and says the Jeeps are prone to spin out rather easily in the snow...with 4x4 on or without.

Short wheelbase made the YJ very twitchy. Lady Osis put it in the ditch not too long after I bought it. Only damaged one of the rear bumpers. She was able to drive it out of the ditch at least.

Hmmmm..knowing they were twitchy, should we assume you were trying to "off" her??

Oh god no! Who else would put up with me?

I suppose I could IF the insurance settlement was big enough.....

My Jeep cherokee XJ was on rails in the snow..   longer wheel base and lower CofG than the Wrangler though..

I wouldn't mind finding an 03-06 Unlimited.   I think they introduced a 6speed sometime in 05 or 06...

Yea..never heard of Cherokees suddenly spinning out.  Seems to be fairly common in the Wrangles from what I gather...

The "new" engine isn't so new.  They haven't made the 4.0 I6 since '06...
