Explorer at heart

I love to explore and try new things. This Jeep was the perfect car for me! It goes anywhere I need it to and that includes some very difficult terrain only accessible with four wheel drive

Great vehicle!

Hands down the best off road vehicle made. Period. Gas milage stinks, but its a fair trade off I suppose. You either like them or hate them. I love my Jeep.

Fun Car with Some Hiccups

This vehicle is a fun vehicle to drive! It is very attractive and the 4WD is unbeatable, especially when the Midwest gets a foot of snow at a time. The ability to take off the roof is a fun feature, and this vehicle is great for someone who loves to spend time outdoors. The only downfall is that it isn't super comfortable inside (it gets cold in the winter), the gas mileage is not great, and for my Jeep, in particular, the transmission completely died at 60k miles even though we have taken great care of it- so reliability is a little iffy.

Old Reliable!

This car was the best first car I could ask for. 9 years later and it still runs without a hitch. I have had many nice summers cruising with the top down.

It's a Jeep and Jeep owners know!

It's been an amazing experience. Amazing enough that I'm in the market for a new one and will never NOT own one. Once you experience it off road or even on road with the top and doors off, you'll be the latest Jeep addict throwing the Jeep Wave at every wrangler you see!

Everyday adventure

It's hard to beat the Wrangler Unlimited for fun and adventure. Certainly not the most comfortable nor roomy ride but it has unbeatable rugged capability and good looks you won't find anywhere else. Everyone should own one at least once.

Just as advertised

It was a good looking jeep, it performed up to my expectations for an 09 wrangler. After getting it check out by a 3rd party garage, everything was in order and there were no surprises that were not advertised. Id buy this car again.
