The '03 TJ's hit the sweet spot in the '97-'06 line. They were the last major revision, especially with the 'TUPY' cylinder head, and parts revisions in '04-'06's, well, have issues. 'TJ' means (last) True Jeep. The 4.0L '03's are special. You ride in a car, you drive in a Jeep.

Love the 2003 TJ!
I have owned 5 Jeeps. A 1965 CJ, a 1969 CJ, a 1987 YJ, a 2019 JL and a 2003 TJ. All have been fun vehicles, the 2019 JL the most practical but the 2003 TJ the most fun. Has the conveniences of a modern vehicle and the fun of a Jeep.

Don't buy unless you love it
Let me start off by saying this car is the most fun thing to own when its nice and the top and doors are off. But when those days are over so is a lot of the fun. Not a great highway cars. Super loud inside compared to a typical sedan. Unsafe and roll over prone. Not many features. Gas mileage is subpar. In the north they ALL rust. And you will customize and spend more money on it. If you do not plan to make it your own, don't buy, its not for you. Even with all that said the great days are truly awesome. If you are willing to commit to the issues it can be a really enjoyable car.

So much fun it’s hard to believe CA allows them
I have known many cars during my ears and I have to say this is one of my top three favorites and my first Jeep. It’s a 2003 that I purchased two years ago with 30,000 miles and it never been used off road or abused in anyway. The engine and undercarriage look as good now as when it came off the showroom floor. Of course I clean it and baby it and I replaced a couple of cosmetic parts under the hood. I just use it to putz around town and travel dirt roads, trails and off road parks- no mud or rock climbing. It climbs like dirt bike and is equally at home on the road or a steep trail. Fun, fun, fun.

Love that the top comes off & can pull a boat,etc.
Like the removable top for wide open riding & being kinda small,still room for the carseat in back. Also,love the color of body & wheels.

Fun fun fun!
The Wrangler is just plain fun to drive anywhere you need or want to go. I wish I had bought one years ago but I’m making up for lost time.

It's a jeep thing.
I moved to Iowa from Phoenix, Arizona and needed a reliable 4 wheel drive vehicle. This certainly fits the bill! So far there is no snowy situation I haven't been able to drive in yet. And, even with the soft top I'm staying plenty warm enough with the heater.

Love my Jeep
This SUV is so fun to drive! I am currently looking to buy another only in a 4DR version. The older version are fantastic and we love it.
