Are jeeps made of gold?

[swampbuck62]

It was a Jeep joke... Geeesshhhh

I understood that geesh...lol

I had a 76 cj5 with a built 304 v8 in. That one sure didn't have weak acceleration!! It was scary fast. If u put it to the floor u better be holding on to thar steering wheel tight. Lol

I know what you mean I had a 77 with the 360ci that thing was a beast and fast did spoa lift and put 35s on it....

The list mainly pertains to new jeeps..

wheres the back seat?..lol

Whats a back seat?

 

[Patryn]

Wasn't even remotely thinking about yours. It's a clean YJ nothing to knock. It's got few add ons that all work together. Not random crap pulled from other trucks that magically turn into gold once "installed".....

I was just poking, I agree with your original post.

Im pretty sure all of those listed comments are considered phrases that invoke stand your ground rights. Use with own discretion


cons..

• Weak acceleration, especially on interstates
• Awkward ingress - requires high step in
• Lack of cargo space for luggage, groceries, etc.
• Noisy - road, wind, engine, and tire noise
• Firm suspension results in a stiff, bumpy ride
• Rear visibility can be a challenge with the top on
• Slow steering
• Tall, boxy profile is not aerodynamic meaning greater wind resistance & wind noise poor mpg.
• Uncomfortable front seat positions for taller drivers
• Everything is an "option" - carpet, steel doors, rear seat, etc.
• Outdated appearance of gages and switchgear
• Difficult getting in and out of rear seat
• Even in the summer, the air is cooler than you'd think - must always bring a jacket
• Small, flimsy doors
• Rear-view mirror is in the line of vision for taller drivers
• Windshield wipers remain in the upright position when "off"
• Base sound system is less than adequate
• If you're riding without the top/sides, you must always be prepared for rain - plastic bags are a lifesaver for your gear
• Cramped rear seating
• Lack of side mirrors when you take off the doors
• Short wheelbase makes highway driving rougher than in larger vehicles
• Uninsulated roof agin winter weather can be rough.
• No lockable trunk/cargo area
• Less practical in colder climates
• It's only a 4-seater and back seat ride is a bit bouncy off road
• Poor fuel economy (typical of SUVs)

and yet we all still love them...lol

I've read this and re read this. Short of getting a three year old in the car seat I can't find the negatives.

that is my point...

I don't get their seemingly inflated value either. Probably some free market B.S.
Similarly I don't understand why Cherokees are priced so low.

This I agree, I have nice cherokee Ive tried to sell several times and the PMs about "oh its only worth 2k...." are retarded.
