LOL. Who buys a corvette?

I’ll just buy a Porsche for myself.

“Kills the Planet.” What a pantload! There are an enormous number of other pollution sources, and passenger cars are equipped with very effective emissions equipment. Do some research.


No one needs a Jeep. No one needs any kind of offroad vehicle. They need to be outlawed.

You are preachy.

I need mine. It makes me happy and is fun to drive. If you drive a lot, maybe. But if you are putting on 5-10K on a Jeep vs. 20-30K a year on another car it all balances out. And, the new ones aren't that bad, or worse than many other vehicles.

Nothing wrong whatsoever, Jeep Wranglers may not be the most practical of vehicles, but they can go places many other SUV’s and trucks can’t. IMHO the Rubicon is an extravagance that many people feel they need only to realize that the $10k of performance factory upgrades will never be utilized as intended. Recommend DH look at the Willys Package, it’s termed the “Rubicon Light” package. Same suspension, and many of the same accessories for 1/3 the cost. For the money saved DH can have Quadratec or a local Offroad shop customize the vehicle to his liking.

Purchased our Wrangler Unlimited in 2015 and haven’t regretted it one bit. Our other car is a Subaru Outback, but the Wrangler is more fun to drive. It’s been fun to customize; 3” lift, oversized tires, custom parts and pieces.

Best part of the Wrangler is the ability to lose the top and doors and drive legally. What vehicle can you do that in?

Maybe your husband has plans to tow this Jeep Wrangler behind the family motorhome in the future.

Reasons for purchase of such a vehicle are endless. I tell people it’s not about the MPG, but the smiles per mile.

p.s. with a Wrangler in the driveway, birthday and Christmas shopping for DH will be easy at Quadratec.com


Actually the rubicon features on the JL are worth getting as some the after market equivilent just isn't equal. And, not everyone wants to lift it. And, if you negotiated well, the price difference was a few thousand not $10K.

No one needs a house bigger than 1500 square feet. Nobody needs to fly in a commercial jet. Nobody needs to order from Amazon. Nobody needs an iPhone. Nobody needs heating and air conditioning.

What? No. The 4 door looks wrong. A Jeep Wrangler has had 2 doors for 80 years. This is what it is supposed to look like.


In 1997 the Jeep Dakar was the most popular concept car Jeep had ever shown, before or since. People pleaded with Jeep to build it.


Look up “Jeep Dakar” and tell us what you see.
