I love my jeep

[BIGdaddy]

just because. It's still what i've always wanted.:luxhello:

anyone else?

[CA-RJ]

I do too. I really enjoy driving it to and from work every day. I drive mine 50 miles a day and don't really mind that it only gets 16 mpg. I can't wait to assemble all the parts to build it up.

[BC Explorer]

I have to agree, I'm driving a 94 YJ and really enjoy it even with the chance to buy a newer truck I just want my Jeep.:jump: :jump:

[RedDog]

Same here. My father always wanted one. My childhood Tonka is on the shelf to my left. I got one as a rental in Hawaii in the 80's when they were out of convertibles. Soon it will be winter and I'll love it ever more as I bull wherever I need to go. I was meant to be here from the beginning.

I traded my '06 Xterra, the best all around 4wd I'd owned, in on this jeep JK

I'm very impressed with it and we''ll see how it does with my trailer

I love my Jeep too! 2000 WJ....although I do have a tendency of drooling over the JK Unlimited!

[86cj]

The old CJ I love kind of like a rowdy unreliable kid you visit when the warden allows..The LJ I love like a spouse that always is there for you and is great to look at too.........

Our CJ was a DD for a young couple with no money for Jeep goodies. The LJ is for nice weather (no road salt) and long trips across the country exploring...

I drove my Jeep ('97 TJ) for the first time today in months. The door locks have seized. Again. There is a pool of water in the drivers footwell. Again but is OK because there aren't any carpets. The heater is marginal. As always, and its not even winter yet. Half-shredded leaves blow out the vents. The seats are showing each of their 175,000 miles. Its so noisy you can't hear the radio. Which is convenient because the radio is haunted. Really, what's not to love? :)

Cheers,
Graham

I'm on Jeep # 18, so I must really like them:exclaim:

[ChemicalToilet]

I'm on my first and I don't think it's possible to have this much fun in any other vehicle.

[silvergrand]

I must admit that I have had a lot of fun/frustration with my 2001 WJ. I'm just about done with my mods...yeah right! Hunting season will slow me down when it comes to additional mods with probable repairs! It's all about learning and exploring.

I never had the teenage "hot rod" that many of my friends had when I was younger (46 now), so I guess I'm having that fun now when the funding is better.

[Bigjerm]

Got to admit I love it too. Nice to have the go anywhere feeling, the heritage of Jeep (and the Jeep wave), and that look you get from guys trapped in their mini-vans at red lights! This is my 3 Jeep, 2nd Wrangler and the girlfriend drives a Liberty now.

[troy]

For the longest time I thought true jeep love was of the topless kind. I loved my CJ-5, YJ, TJ.

However, I picked up a '98 XJ as a winter vehicle for the wife about 3 years ago, and slowly started to modify it. It isn't extreme, but it may be the most well-rounded Jeep I've owned. It is cheap as hell to fix, AW4 is the most reliable Jeep automatic, 4.0, and the style never seems to get dated to me. I think I love her too.

[98dango]

i have owned maney jeeps

i loved my first RIP
had an affair with my second
third stuck around a while butt she left me and took half my stuff
4th was taken from me at lunch and never returned
5 it still soon but where in LOVE

this os just the yjs i have had cjs xj mj all have been good rigs

[Backwoods Rambler]

I've owned a '96 XJ for several years, then traded it in. Now I'm back in an XJ, my '98. I think it's "in the cards" for me to be in Jeeps. I think the only other 4x4 I would bother to own would be an '02 -to- '04 WJ with a 4.7L H.O.

Hi, my name is JD, and I love Jeeps :victory:

[RedRocker]

Bought mine new in 86, so I understand.

[f9k9]

I'm on my third Jeep in 3 yrs but, I started late. I was impressed with a XJ that was on a trail ride with me. I have a S-10 Crew Cab that I had been working on for several yrs and the XJ was just more capable. I picked up a '92 that was in my subdivision for $1200 but, it was really to nice to fire up a sawzall to.

Then the kid who had the XJ on the trail ride, sold his to me for $2,000. I sold the first one for $2,000. I then wrenched and poured $2,000 into it to fix the kid's mistakes.

Even at $4K you can't buy a good ATV or drive it to work. It turned out somewhat capable.

The wife's first mistake was to tell me that I needed a hobby when I retired from 30 yrs with the government. Her second one was when she told me that I won't be happy until I had a jeep Jeep.
So, I found a '03 Rubicon that was stolen and recovered in TX. It had a good title, it cost $12K and it was 3 miles from the house. I sold the second XJ for $2K (that is where you get the "Just Empty Every Pocket from.)
Well, since I mainly trail ride and never really thought about expeditions, I started a minor build up and again, it is just capable but, will never see a trailer!

Hindsight would have made me wait on a long wheel base LJ. I do love the TJ but, when it came time to meet HenryJ in Moab last month, running the WRT and driving almost 4K miles, I chose the S-10. Little did I know back in '04 when I found a crew cab S-10 forum that I would end up here. Had I known everything then, I'd have a niceJEEP LJ expedition rig.

I now own Jeep number 3, a 2006 Wrangler LJ. There was a time that the idea of another vehicle, non-Jeep, was out of the question but I find myself thinking it might be time for a change. Of course if Jeep would put a diesel in the 4-door JK I could be convinced to stick with the Wrangler platform. Actually I would just like a second overland vehicle that is more family friendly and comfortable for long drives on tarmac. If pushed I don't think I could be content without a Wrangler in the garage.

[Ronnie4283]

I love 'em too, I've had two XJ's, a WJ and now I'm on my second TJ in a row. My current TJ is an '05 Willys ed. So it's prolly mine forever. I'm sure I'll get another, but not trading in the Willys. I wheel the crap out of it. This summer I'll start doing some adventuring with it, time and money allowing of course.

[rctr03]

98xj
96xj

Hey

Well I started out late in life with Jeeps and bought my first one in 2006, it was an 86 CJ7 with a 3" black diamond lift, 1" lift in shackles and a Dana44 rearend, an older AMC 360V8, headers, eldbrock intake and carb, 33/12.5/15 BFG AT's and there was nothing better than no doors and a bikini top. Then I sold it......What was I thinking!
Now I drive a 99 WJ with a 4.7L V8 and the rest is stock; I have to admit it's ok, but I have a bad front drive shaft (POS, vibrations after running through some mud) and an intermittent enviromental controls for A/C, heater, defrost etc. (Just replaced resistor for blower motor, right rear axle seal, left from wheel bearing, brake rotors>>>JEEP.....Just E E Pocket holds true). Still its comfortable, fairly quick, four wheel drive is awesome in winter. I have a garvin roof rack and two KC daylighter up top. Next may be mud tires but I hate the wimpy size they come with (245/70/16) and even with a lift only gets you maybe one size up.
I want a new 4 door wrangler!

First Jeep was when I was 20 and that was 34 years ago, many have come and gone over these past years, all shapes, sizes,styles and colors.
In 04 I was needing a new vehicle for DD and work so bought a Liberty and said this is one I will not mod!!!! Now after lifting it, adding an ARB front bumper, roof rack Moab wheels ready to install 4.10s and lockers, maybe I will mod this one afterall:luxhello:
