Pros: fun, econimical, never out of style
Cons: lots of road noise, stiff suspension.
I have always wanted a jeep and had a Jeep Cherokee in 1993 that I loved, so purchasing a Wrangler was an easy decision. I bought an all black 1999 Wrangler SE with 4 cyl and 5 speed trans. As other reviewers have reported the road noise is a lot more...

Pros: Fun, Off-Roading, New Top, Driving Power
Cons: Interior, Comfort
I have been driving Jeeps for years. I started out on a CJ7 when I first started driving. It was a great truck, and it was different to see on the road (when Jeeps weren't nearly as trendy). It drove like a truck, and its offroading potential was...

Pros: Rugged, tough, sturdy (check your thesaurus for others) as they come in today's market.
Cons: Excess road noise. Soft top (including half doors) need complete re-design.
The Bottom Line: A true SUV. Not for execs, soccer moms, or status seekers.
Okay, Jeeps are not for everyone. I'll just comment on mine, since I've had it for over four years. It's a '99 Wrangler SE, with a 4-cylinder engine. A typical 'stripper' off the lot (no fringes, no back seat, or even a radio, I installed the radio I ...

Pros: Convertible, trendy, Jeep design. Trade in value.
Cons: Quality, reliability, ravenous fuel use, sloppy engineering, dashboard, and buying experience. Chrysler, Chrysler, Chrysler.
The Bottom Line: Everything you are reading and hearing about DaimlerChrysler is true. Six years and 68,000 miles of "babying" this truck and it's on it's second drivetrain failure.
OVERVIEW: It seems that this vehicle is one that gets a lot of "I'll buy one someday..." comments. There is no in between, people that have owned them either love them or hate them. BACKGROUND: Before I begin, I want to give you some background ...

Pros: FUN FUN FUN!!, soft top easy to remove, hard top great for winter, 4x4
Cons: Horrible Gas Mileage, Auto Tranny stinks, Insurance
The scene is summer 1999, just got out of college, just got married, and we needed a new vehicle. Myself being 23 and my wife 21 our #1 priority was the top needed to come off (of the vehicle!). Period! Our first thought was a 1999 Mustang Convertible,...

Pros: I like 'em
Cons: highway miles aren't fun
Before you run down to your local car dealer and hand them the down payment on a shiny new Jeep, there is a seemingly minor factor you should consider. The "Jeep Wave" is a simple and friendly enough gesture between owners of the popular 4x4's...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: style, fun, run over anything, handy
Cons: noisy, poor gas mileage, no storage
I was looking for a 4 wheel drive that was also a ragtop, and a Porche Carrera 4 was out of the question.
I knew nothing about jeeps and never was even in one before i bought mine. I did not test drive either; did not want to find out i did...

Pros: Unlimited offroad power, fun drive, great value
Cons: Poor highway accel., takes a lot of gas
No frills, no unnecessary options, the Wrangler is a performer, plain and simple. Fun to drive in any situation and ready for anything, this thing is worth every penny of its (+/-) $17,000 price tag.
I got mine with a hardtop for security...

Pros: Fun to drive,Looks great,Great off road ability
Cons: Gas guzzler, Wind noise, small cargo room
In October of 98 I picked up one of the first 99 Sahara's when it arrived in the showroom. One thing one must do before purchasing a wrangler is contemplate your needs. Though I love my jeep I knew what I was getting into before my purchase. I wanted...

Pros: roomy, great for recreation air/sun
Cons: abysmal ride, loud, guzzles gas
I've heard a surprising number of people say they purchased their SUV for their dog, and I'm not embarrassed to say that I'm one of them. About eight months ago, I became the proud owner of a German Shepherd puppy, and needless to say I knew immediately...

I have owned my 1999 Wrangler for a year and a half now. Most improved in this model over previous years was the reduced noise level from the soft top. The suspension is Drastically improved with little to no chance of roll over during normal driving...

Our family bought a Jeep Wrangler in 1999 as a vehicle for our son to drive when he started driving. Now, we like it so much that we are not so sure we want to give it up.
We all enjoy the sporty, casual drive the jeep gives, especially with the...
