This is a wonderful family vehicle. We all enjoy going out on a sunny day, top down and doors off to unwind! The kids enjoy her as well as we do! Fuel mileage isn't the greatest but the fun factor is off the charts!

Well, I rated performance at a four, because it's not a fast vehicle. Jeeps are torquie as hell, and for good reason. They're not meant to go fast. You want fast, I can't help you. Overall, the TJ is one hell of a four wheeler. But, then again, what Jeep isn't? One thing that Jeep stuck to was the design of their Wranglers. Very minimal changes to the cosmetics and suspension. The 4.0L H/O is a very good motor and is known to last well beyond 300,000 miles, if properly taken care of. Unfortunately, in 2007, the Wrangler JK was introduced bringing a V6, not the I6 as in previous model Wranglers. The V6 has its benefits, such as slightly higher gas mileage and more horsepower. Although, it's not good for off-roading because the torque isn't as present as it was in the I6 4.0L. I, myself, prefer the straight six over a V6 any day. Jeep has always made a strong product. I have had many Jeeps and they have gotten me out of some pretty nasty trouble. That's all I have to say. Again, overall, this vehicle is a blast to drive! What it lacks in space in the cab, it makes up in pure fun. If you want a good video of a Stock TJ, check out YouTube, you'll find a lot of videos there. Thanks for reading, and feel free to ask any questions!

There's a few kinks in my 1998 Sahara Edition Wrangler, but it's an awesome ride. The exhaust manifolds on these jeeps should be tossed first thing. The first time you go wheeling, the manifold with crack due to being hot and suddenly exposed to cold. They now make a flew tube manifold that will take that kind of temp change without trouble. The top is easy to remove or put on, it's not too heavy, but could use an quicker easier way to take on or off than using bolts that need tightened of loosened. I have a hardtop so I have very minimal leak problems, BUT, the gaskets that they use on the hard tops are very prone to becoming stiff (especially if exposed to hot weather often). I've had to take the rear window gasket out and lay it out in the sun covered in vasaline to get the elasticity back several times, to prevent more leaks, which then cause mildew and mold on your seats. Drain holes. I do go out in the mud, puddles, ect, and I've had to drill 2 new drain holes in the back seat floor boards and hammer the floors down to slope towards the holes in the front floorboards. OTHERWISE I get a bunch of standing water in my floorboards once I'm done washing my jeep out. It was a PAIN to find (I had to make them) plugs for the holes I drilled in the back floorboards. The bumpers definetally do what they are intended to do, but if you take your beast wheeling with stock bumpers.. I dare you to hit a tree. Those suckers bend like twigs. The only other negative thing I have to say is that Jeep REALLY should've matched the rear dana 44 and put one in the front as well. Instead it has a dana 30. If you get caught in some clay and put it in 4x4. It's likely you won't have the front end pulling you anymore. That dana 30 will blow pretty easy. Other than that, I LOVE my jeep, they are put together pretty damn well, and are one of the most fun vehicles you could possibly own.
