This reminds me of the time my Air Force field exercise was cancelled because of rain. Instead of learning to fight in the rain, my group went to the movies. I ate some nachos.
I agree with you on the service side. That is a good point. If Jeep wants to compete in the luxury market they will need to up their game there big time.
I love the articles that fuel the Land Rover vs Jeep debates. They always devolve into the anything-you-can-do-I-can-do-better pictures of Jeeps and Land Rovers doing ridiculously awesome stuff in deep muddy rivers and rocky mountain faces.

Honestly, I don't like it. It looks like what happens when I try to stretch images to fit ALLLL the way across my PowerPoint slides. I know it's not an official Land Rover product, but this and the half-aborted, Snuffalufagus-Murano-Cabriolet-Evoque makes me very sad. Excuse me, I need to go cry over a real Land…
