I have noticed you don't have a clue WTH you're talking about.

Sorry you made such a poor decision during your mid life crisis. Perhaps you'll do a better job of picking your grave.

Jesus. Dramatic much?

Tell them to find their own rides.

The Jeep Wrangler is a great vehicle regardless of who’s driving. It’s versatility is unmatched. Only vehicle of its kind that can be driven legally with roof and doors removed.

Check out Quadratec.com for a catalog of neat Jeep accessories. Jeeps are the “Swiss Army knives” of the Auto world. Build them anyway you want, have fun. Don’t worry what others think, you’re never too old to be seen driving with the roof or doors off. Buy a Wrangler, customize it the way you want and enjoy yourself.

The “trail rated” badge means it’s capable of off-road use, and surprisingly it need not be modded to enjoy off-reading.

The Jeep wave is real.

Jeeps are ageless, great for both old and young alike. Drive one and you’ll realize it’s more fun to drive than a Suburban /Yukon or any social stigma car.

Blaze your own trail and enjoy Your Wrangler!!

Or, they are just fun to drive especially the new ones.

Have you driven an actually fun car? Sounds like a case of "all meat tastes like filet mignon when you don't know any better". Wranglers are slow, super noisy, and have a ridiculous amount of body roll.

Yes, we've had a few sports cars/still have one and are looking at the new JL. They were not slow, super noisy and didn't have any body roll along with other things mentioned on here. They are redesigned. We're just waiting till the 19 comes out as they will have more features. There is a huge difference between the old Jeeps and the new ones. I don't like practical cars. Sounds like you haven't driven the new one yet and just want to pass judgement. That's fine. Keep to your boring sedan or SUV in Black, white, tan or silver.

I looked it up because I was curious, and the *new* Wrangler has worse skidpad numbers than a Ford F150. If you like the Jeep aesthetic and the image it conveys to strangers that's fine, but you should stop lying to others saying it drives well.

My wife and I are super boring in our black RR Sport with DC plates, but a 45yo+ mom driving a Jeep Wrangler to Target in suburban MD positively *oozes* sex appeal!!

Haha a Range Rover douche gtfoh. If you would’ve said that from the beginning you could’ve saved a lot of us reading your extensive non informative essay

What a dork.

it's 9:30PM, you should be in bed grandma!!

Nah, doesn't make me jealous. I know what infernal pieces of junk Defenders are.

Once you pull out the truly awful, gutless, wheezing 3.5L V8, the horrible unsynchronized 4/5 speed transmission, the fire-hazard wiring harness, the puny little 27-spline C-clip axles, well, THEN you've got some potential to make some real improvements.

Start with boxing the open C-channel frame. You'll need a few hundred pounds of 1/8 and 3/16 sheet steel. Once you get it boxed, it'll be *almost* as strong as a Wrangler frame.

Then put in a Chevy smallblock V8 crate motor, either a 350 or a 383. Both are superior to the V6 in the Wrangler. Go with the factory GM Vortec fuel injection system, its fine. Carbs are for weirdos.

Bolt the motor to a stock GM TH400 with a 6.14:1 first gear.

Then an Atlas II 3-speed transfer case with a 5:1 low

Dana/Spicer driveshafts of course

Front axle should be a Dynastar Pro-Rock 60 high pinion. Rear axle is Dana 60. Both with 35 spline shafts of course. Detroit Locker in back, Eaton E-Locker up front. 4.56 R&P ratio.

Rancho remote reservoir coil-over shocks.

35" Interco Swamper IROK tires.

AGR full hydraulic steering

Dodge Ram 3500 disk brakes all around

FLO-KOOL aluminum radiator

Stock GM air conditioning

Wiring harness kit from Painless Wiring.





If you do all that stuff, you'll indeed have a Land Rover that's better than a stock Jeep Wrangler.


I can build one for you just like that, in about two months. It'll only cost you about $90,000, plus the Defender, of course.

The fact that you use the words "Wrangler" and "skidpad" in the same sentence pretty much reveals that you understand nothing about Jeep Wranglers, either in concept, or in practice. It's akin to someone criticizing a Lamborghini for not having a trailer hitch. Or asking which chainsaw is best for carving the Thanksgiving turkey. Or if it's a bad idea to waterski behind a floatplane. It's just an utterly stupid thing to say.

The numbers Jeep Wrangler engineers and enthusiasts care about aren't the skidpad. They're approach, break-over and departure angles. Ground clearance. Suspension articulation ramp angles. Off-camber angles. lb/ft of torque at idle. Fording depth. Low-range ratio. Final-drive crawl ratio.

Those are the numbers that matter in a Jeep Wrangler. Your silly Range Rover couldn't even make it up the entrance road to where a the trail starts, let alone keep up with a Wrangler off-road. It's like comparing apples and dead kittens.

The anti-Jeep posters are disturbed. I simply cannot wrap my head around how anyone could possibly care so much about the type of car another person drives. Seriously. You people sound certifiable. And I don't drive a Jeep.
