This is my first car and it's the best first car that a kid could get. The performance on it is awsome has new brakes, and it has a throttle body spacer wich gives it more horsepower. The apperence is like no other jeep you have ever seen it has rubicon decals a rubicon tire rack and a full size tire on it. The fun factor is a 10 it's lifted so i go muding all the time and it beats and truck out there.

Pros — its different
Cons — no negatives

It's a Jeep so it needs work a lot. I like the looks, the ease of finding performance parts, the reliability. It gets good gas mileage, mine gets about 19 averaged both city and highway. Usually more on the highway, like 22, and city is about 16 I think. It's fun for me to drive, the stock suspension is soft which is good, I upgraded with a lift kit which is a lot more firm, makes it feel a lot more like a Jeep.

Pros — Good gas mileage
Cons — High maintenance

a great car. paint is excellent. the fuel injectors are a lil dirty and as of right now the sruts and springs are cracked. i put a new deck and speakers in sounds great. onwership costs are relatively low. i had to replace the serpentine belt and some other small objects but first work done in 10 years! its a limited gun metal grey with 12" alloys. i get about 15 mpg on a good week. very fun to drive

Pros — great in the snow. very safe. not much wear and tear.
Cons — fuel injectors are getting old, and suspension is following

This car rules!! with the sturdy jeep construction and the monstrous 4.0 litre engine and switchable sports box(automatics only) it makes for eye opening acceleration and the power for towing anything from a trailer to a tractor....Off road capability isnt the best, however, with its good design and sturdy construction if you bounce into a few rocks or hitch up on a tree stump dont worry too much(trust me I know)

Pros — lots of all round useable strength
Cons — expensive parts and fuel economy both make for expense!!!

Car was great.  Never had any problems.  Poor Fuel Economy.  4WD was a little shaky.

Pros — 4WD
Cons — Gas

I love this car, I am on my second! A it thirsty but is forgivable because it's can do everything an estate can anywhere (on or off the road). Doesn't roll as much as a Discovery or other high clearance 4x4's and looks good at the same time.

Pros — Space, high driving position, high level of spec on most models
Cons — Fuel thirsty
