Great Vehicle! Fun To Drive. — I enjoyed owning this vehicle. I love the sky slider roof for the summer and the 4x4 for the winter. It is cozy to drive and comfortable space for passengers in the back seat. Over all great vehicle and ride.

True Jeep — It's my sisters jeep that I have drove many of time! The ride is bumpy (but great) had only 2 problems with the car, water in the horn and someone stole all the emblems off the car (idk if that's a true problem) but with them aside I see this a lasting car!

Jeep Liberty — I listed my likes and dislikes of this vehicle in the sections above. Other than that this vehicle is great but it was not built with large families in mind. Options for this vehicle make it very attractive for its price.

Very Good Buy — Comfortable and roomy. Great entertainment system and bluetooth technology. Great beach Car. Fits a lot in trunk. Can remove back seats for for bigger loads. Moon roof lets a lot of light in. Great in snow. leather seats are easy to clean. Love It.

Very Good — I really like all the technology that it has, for example the memory for the seating, it tells you the fuel economy and the headlights will turn on automatically when it gets dark. And overall has an amazing appearance and good torque but could be better

Very Nice, Different, Has Its Own Character, Draws Attentions When Its Nice And Clean — I used to own an 01 XJ and sold it a year ago to get the new KK Liberty. It kind of reminded me of the XJ but in a larger package. First thing I noticed is how heavy it is compared to the XJ and the gas pedal is not synchorinized with the engine... its weird.. not like the XJ where you press the gas pedal and the response is instantenous, the whole car shakes because of its power... I did not find this in the new Libby. Ride quality is nice but sometimes its just too soft... maybe with some aftermarket shocks and a little lift this could be fixed. Interior space is much more friendlier and nicer than the old XJ. All in all I was pleased, but I do have one request for JEEP: make the next gen Liberty a 4.0 litre engine with around 270 hp so it can compete with the 4runner.

08 Jeep Liberty Limited — Its takeoff is to damn slow,although the custom intake helps and gas mileage sucks; other than that its a nice vehicle...Decent factory sound system. its fun to take offroad, top speed 112, it's a little small for me.

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Perfect Compromise Between Classic Jeep Design And Modern Suv Features. — Wonderful experience driving it. The design is also more appealing to me. Gives younger drivers like me an alternative to the "Dad's" Grand Cherokee. Has a tough and funky outlook with all the features of a Grand Cherokee.

Nice Macho Car — Nice new model of the old liberty, has some familiarities with the Dodge Nitro, but has its own particular look, nice to drive, easy to handle very short circle, cool car. After 30000 miles and 2.5 yr, I am still very happy with my Jeep Liberty, no repairs needed and I am not very accurate with service appointments, still a very strong, cool car!!! Lots of space, my labrador loves it.
