I went out and bought a brand spanking new Wrangler Jeep today.....never really been a jeep fan but the price was right on this baby and I just couldn't pass it up.
I'm  positive a large amount of miles and smiles will be had in it.  Wink cooldude Smiley Grin Cheesy Roll Eyes 2funny

Take the Jeep to Ouray Colorado and ride the old mining roads there they are made for that, then give a ride report with pics of the smile on your face.

Good luck with the Jeep and enjoy.

I've had my 2006 Rubicon 2 weeks shy of 4 years (Sept 17, 2005).  It's been a great vehicle and really useful for the winter I spent in Idaho (lots of snow and -20 to -30 degree mornings) and 2 winters in Wisconsin (one the snowiest in over 125 years).  I'm trading it in now that I'm back in a milder climate.

The only drawback is with the front and back Dana 44s and 4.11 gears and the aerodynamics of a brick is the gas mileage.  My 120 mile/day commute in Idaho averaged somewhere around 13 mpg, and my highest average is routinely 15 mpg.

YMMV, and probably will.

According to the paper work the speeds are the same....Probably come down to driver experience. So I guess that means Grave Digger wins for now.  2funny I had Ryan with me yesterday when I "some assembly required" it and put the what seemed like 8000 stickers on it. tickedoff tickedoff
I asked Ryan if he wanted to give it a test run and he refused...... He said "Barbie Jeep is for girls"... Grin 2funny

Bought a 2000 Wrangler for my daughter back in 2005. I've been shocked at how reliable it has been. Pretty much bulletproof. She still loves it and says she'll never have anything else.
