2009 | 4dr SUV 202-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
I know that I can go anywhere at anytime with this car. It fires up, handles well in rain, sleet, snow, ice, dry, on road and off. full 2009 Jeep Wrangler review |
2008 | 4dr SUV 202-horsepower 3.8L V6 6-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range |

2008 | 2dr SUV 202-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
HUGE disappointment! TERRIBLE construction. WORST fit and finish. My Jeep Wranglers soft top roof leaked from the start. I blew THOUSANDS of dollars over four years of ownership trying to get Jeep dealership to repair the problem. No luck. Always got the run around. At one point, Jeep repair even admitted '...of course it leaks. It's a Wrangler.' Every time it rained, I'd have half an inch of water on the floor, and dashboard soaked. Seats were like sponges. I was tired of the Jeep bullsh*t and sold it off with 30k miles. Heartbreaking. Wranglers are fun, but very very unreliable and breathtaking how POORLY built they are. Don't waste your money. full 2008 Jeep Wrangler review |

I simply like the fact that they have a history of being reliable. I’m not basing that on any study or any collection of stats that I’ve seen. I’m just basing it on my experience and the experience of my Jeep friends. full 2008 Jeep Wrangler review |

2010 | 2dr SUV 202-horsepower 3.8L V6 6-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range |

Roof will leak badly no matter what model you buy. Hard top or soft top. It's insulting how badly made Jeeps are. Think I'm kidding? Search 'leaking jeep roof' on YouTube and you'll see tons of videos from owners like me documenting how BADLY jeeps leak. Like a running faucet on your damn head. full 2008 Jeep Wrangler review |
