Husband wants to trade in his SUV for a new 2-door Jeep Wrangler. Is this odd?

This is why I love my H’s Jeep. It keeps early-30-something douchebag soybois with a cougar fixation from flirting with me when they see me getting out of it in DB or P&R. Plus it’s also kinda fun knowing you could literally drive up and over a Tesla if you ever wanted to.

I also owned a 1976 Jeep CJ7 Bicentennial edition with the Levi seat package, V8 engine, Eagle on hood from factory and a three inch lift kit, tow hitch and a winch with push bars. Add to fun factory CB and ten foot CB antenna.

That one with top down on highway was the best as everyone loved it. I had 25 year old girls and 75 year old men admiring it. Maybe something like that or old school restomod Bronco convertible.

I want to buy a 1979s Plymouth trail duster. Really cool pickup truck convertible briefly offered that attracts a crowd. It is four wheel drive too.

This is what the girly girls all drive back in HS.

They are uncomfortable, more prone to tip over than average, drafty, noisy, and everything else you’d expect from a vehicle that was designed more or less overnight to get troops around on a battlefield in WWII.

BUT, they have probably the best four wheel drive system out there, and the ground clearance to make it useful.

AND, they hold value like nobody’s business.

They are plenty comfortable and no longer prone to tipping. I'm on my third over the last 25+ years and have loved every one of them.

If you roll a new Jeep on road, it is because you are an idiot trying to drive a truck like it’s a sports car. If you roll it off-road, it’s because you don’t understand geometry.

Mine is comfortable, its not drafty and I have the fabric sun roof/sky touch roof, not drafty and no more noisy than my old SUV.

This isn't a Jeep designed to carry troops.

The safety ratings were based off the lowest model without all the add on safety features. It isn't accurate. They have multiple safety features and you can get steel bumpers.

Your just jealous you can't drive a fun car. Enjoy your minivan.

This is the biggest problem with the jeep. My husband needs to buy his own.

Larger wheels don’t help you stay upright. The only solution is welding weight to the frame or lowering the suspension and Jeep isn’t doing either. Swamp eaters and 5 inch lifts look cool but handle like crap. At least you’ll be prepared to conquer mall parking lots.

I'd be kind of embarrassed for this car to be part of my household TBH. But you do you!

A sport is the same height as a regular suv. Same with upper models and bigger suvs.
