| Dh and I really want a fun 4 door (we have 2 in car seats) stick shift and we’ve been thinking about a Jeep rubicon Or Sahara. We want something fun to drive as our second car and we also do a lot of hauling/ off roading. Our #1 is getting a fun manual car. These are really popular in the DC area. Anyone love or hate theirs? |
| Love ours. We have the 75th anniversary edition so it’s a cross between a wrangler and Rubicon. We also have a 20 year old 2 door rag top wrangler. Both are stick shift. We love to drive onto the beach and go camping and jeeping in the mountains. |
| Yes, when it’s not in the shop |
| We are going to buy one soon. People either love or hate them. Get a 2020 as the new JL's have some bugs in them - it was a new model for 2018/19. If you off road get a Rubicon in less you can upgrade it yourself. |
| Get the T top |
|
I've had Jeeps my whole life and have always loved them-everything from a Sahara, Liberty and Grand Cherokee...now I love my Explorer and I'll never go back to Jeep.
|
| we loved ours but I'd never drive my kids in one while they are in car seats - and least not often |
The explorer is not comparable nor fun to drive. |
Not the PP but the Wrangler is garbage at everything but serious off-roading. 95/100 Wrangler owners do not even come close to using the off-road capability of the Wrangler. They would be better-suited in literally every respect with a Grand Cherokee. The GC can get to the Old Rag trailhead just as easily as a Wrangler. But if you've all you've ever eaten at is the Cheesecake Factory I guess that's your high watermark for fine dining. |
| No. Hated it. Fortunately it was just a rental for a week in Nantucket (new model two summers ago). |
Grand Cherokee is not particularly fun to drive. I drove them all and got a wrangler. Id you don't like them, don't get it, but not all of us are looking for luxury. I want fun, not luxury. |
Big difference between a basic sport which is the rental and a higher model. We rented one on vacation and that is the reason we bought it. |
The Wrangler is probably fun for you because it lets you pretend for a moment that you're a sorority girl and not a boring middle-aged woman who lives in the burbs. From a driving experience standpoint it doesn't hold a candle to something actually fun like a 911 or BMW M car. |
Not even equal. You sound like a boring person. |
Whatever dude. NP here but we have both - BMW M and a Jeep Wrangler Sahara. Love my Jeep infinitely more. Faster is not always better. And given that I was never a sorority girl not sure how that works. Even if it did -I'd rather act too young then act my age
