Question

what are some pros and cons of a jeep wrangler?

Answer 1

Pro's

Versital, in all weather, has city and country driving capabilities.
Sporty, you'd prolly look pretty hot in it.

Cons
Not that comfortable... Jeeps like to fall apart in wierd places. Not that amazing gas mileage. Roll Over prone.

Hope that helps.

Check out Cars.com, and read reviews. That's where it's at.

Answer 2

Well the Jeep product in general is very well built, but they may run you a little more then say a Ford in the same class. I have a Jeep Compass and checked out the Wrangler also. I love my Jeep.

Answer 3

Not familiar with the newer ones, but the older ones tipped over REALLY easy. Roofs leaked a lot too. Fun jeeps to play around in though, good for friends and warm summer days.

Answer 4

There's a Jeep Wrangler Forum of owners, so you could start there (who better to ask than someone who owns one, huh?). http://www.wranglerforum.com/, and also jeepforum.com.

Here are some other sites that came up w/"Jeep Wrangler Pros & Cons"

Answer 5

Pros

- Classic design / unique look

- Unique styling serves as both an SUV and a convertible
- 4x4 capabilities - can handle any road anywhere
- Height advantage over most cars - great visibility
- Good heating system
- A simply constructed vehicle that's easy to repair
- Short wheelbase, powerful drivetrain, body size & tight turning ratios all great for off-roading
- Small size & light weight, make it a cinch to swing into tight spots
- Great vehicle for all seasons
- Jeep fraternity of friends for life
- Rugged and durable - lasts for many years & many miles

- Appeals to adults & teens alike

- American made



Cons

- Weak acceleration, especially on interstates
- Awkward ingress - requires high step in
- Lack of cargo space for luggage, groceries, etc.
- Noisy - road, wind, engine, and tire noise
- Firm suspension results in a stiff, bumpy ride
- Rear visibility can be a challenge with the top on
- Slow steering
- Tall, boxy profile is not aerodynamic meaning greater wind resistance & wind noise
- Uncomfortable front seat positions for taller drivers
- Everything is an "option" - carpet, steel doors, rear seat, etc.
- Outdated appearance of gages and switchgear
- Difficult getting in and out of rear seat
- Even in the summer, the air is cooler than you'd think - must always bring a jacket
- Small, flimsy doors
- Rear-view mirror is in the line of vision for taller drivers
- Windshield wipers remain in the upright position when "off"
- Base sound system is less than adequate
- If you're riding without the top/sides, you must always be prepared for rain - plastic bags are a lifesaver for your gear
- Cramped rear seating
- Lack of side mirrors when you take off the doors
- Short wheelbase makes highway driving rougher than in larger vehicles
- Uninsulated roof
- No lockable trunk/cargo area
- Less practical in colder climates
- It's only a 4-seater
- Poor fuel economy (typical of SUVs)
