I recently bought a 2002 Jeep Liberty and I love it! Is there anybody here who wants to talk about their Jeeps?

I like the CJ-7 and the YJ/TJ a lot. I'm getting one of these when my economy is a little better. :) They're cheaper and easier to maintain than a Defender or a Gelandewagen, but they will still outperform these two when off road.

It stands for Just Empty Every Pocket. :P The old wagoners ate the gas and don't hold up as well as you'd think they would.We have really bad roads,the coolest ride I ever saw was an old Dodge Power wagon from the fifties.It would pull Jesus off the cross.

I love tow trucks myself, they set so high, that commanding view of the road is addicting.

My ex did the school bus route here for a few years,I used to ride sometimes.In some places the road was as wide as the bus and some really great views,and some really,really steep places.Back in the day if someone was walking on the road the school bus driver would stop and give them a ride into town.Rural public transportation. :D Because you knew everyone,you can't do that anymore,sad to see how times have changed.

I have no idea.The only draw back is its a stick shift,but you could just out it in granny and creep along. :D I bet the clutch would be a b***h to push down.

the clutch would be a workout as would the unassisted brakes, you would have legs of steel in no time.
