Had a silver soft-top 2005 Unlimited 4x4 with the I-6, 6-speed manual, and chrome step bars. Miss it every day. It was the pinnacle of simplicity and driving enjoyment.

JESUS TAP DANCING CHRIST PEOPLE! Who the fuck cares if there is an automatic option? I bet that Kawasaki found a really smart business case for it and wanted to one up Honda by OFFERING AS A FUCKING OPTION the automatic. Don’t like it? Buy the manual and GO FUCK YOURSELF with it. boo fucking hoo to you.

.....I take it you can't read?? Comes in both auto or manual. Which is fantastic to have the option

"For all we know, their cars may actually be carbureted." You aren't wrong DeMuro, you aren't wrong...

And this is the brilliance of EcoBoost! They don’t even have to tell them it’s right below a hybrid. It’s so eco and boosty that the public reaches that conclusion for themselves!

I think the Jeep does clutch less starts in 4w-low

Why not just put a Hellcat engine. Hehe

Diesel! Diesel! Diesel!

His Scout is also rustier.

I bet your Cummins gets 35 MPG towing a house uphill against the wind at 85 MPH as well.

My saving grace is that my bullbar can eat your door

Enjoy your Japanese shitbox.

enjoy your 50% depreciation in the next 3 years

Also seat belts keep you inside

I bought a 2000 TJ last summer for a toy/second vehicle/something with a hitch. 4.0, no rust, 150k on the clock. $6000. Cheap abundance of parts and accessories. Simple to work on. Easily hauls dirt bikes and other shit on a 5x8 utility trailer. Drives great off road and is a lot of fun in the MN snow. I bought a CB…

Yes.

Some of us actually use ours off road.

and it why this thing is such a failure. there’s a market for a jeep competitor.

Here’s the thing I don’t get - why hasn’t anyone taken a serious swing at the Wrangler?

Witnessing executions builds character.
