Tough, Fun & Safe

This is awesome to have 365 days a year! I've driven it to work, taken it off road and the best part is you always feel safe being in it.

It?s a JEEP

This is my first purchase of a 4 door Jeep. I have owned 2 door Jeeps in the past and this by far is the most comfortable at my age. I have always liked Jeeps but if you really want one, check out the Unlimited as they ride better and less funky with regards to highway behavior. MPG average is 17 to 19. Resale value is excellent. Plenty of aftermarket parts are available. You can put the top down and it?s safer than a motorcycle in my opinion.

Best SUV on the market

If built right you can go anywhere in one of these Jeeps. Don?t hesitate if your considering buying one it?ll be the best decision you?ve ever made about a vehicle. More fun than a sports car, more versatile than a truck and more of a lifestyle than just another car. As you can tell I love my 2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon!

Loved it

The perfect vehicle for everything .. Carries 5 adults, has fold-down seats for lots of storage and gets 19+ mpg even with 4WD and bigger wheels/tires. Commanding view of the road, lots of ground clearance, easy to upgrade, auto/manual shifter helps with climbing and crawling and removable top turns it into a convertible. Why drive anything else??

Our Jeep

Overall not too bad in 62000 miles. Mileage around 17 overall. Our problems in no particular order: The passenger side seat heater went out and had to be replaced for $300 and was out of pocket. Next a tube to the AC condenser in front was obviously misrouted at the factory and wore a hole in the condenser core costing us $930 out of pocket. This Wrangler replaced a 05 with a straight 6 and it is more peppy that the 05 was, but it is still a really slow vehicle. Two annoying things, if you hit resume on the speed control you gotta watch it because unlike my Chevy truck it will over speed 3-4 mph before it drifts back down to the preset speed. Ticket city if you aren't paying attention. Second there is 10 second delay (why??) after you start the car before the AC or blower start up. You're sitting there cooking and it isn't doing anything. You sometimes start moving before the AC starts up. Both of these are dumb engineering. Other than this we love it. Yes it rides like a Jeep but better than the 05..
