Home Forums Gear Hunting Trucks and Four-Wheel Drives Jeep ?

Yeah they are the most numerous here and cheapest.

The wife has had 4 grand cherokee's and 3 were great, the last one kept having computer problems so traded it back in with 1500 miles on it. The one she has now is the cherokee trail hawk and it is much better than the grands but also cost a bit more.

I had a really nice 1960 CJ5 with a V6 Buick with over drive, full roll cage fast and nimble....cool vehicle.

You could piss under the tire and just about get stuck.

I'd be looking at a Toyota Tacoma.

never owned any jeeps.......

Of course they are popular in Utah

Prices are stupid high on most everything even used now....

Bought my '03 LX before the prices went nuts this year

Sold a '14 Taco for this '03

Driver not vehicle...

I’ve had a jeep my entire adult life, wouldn’t be without one. I bought this one new in 89. It is the 4 cylinder, 4.10 gear ratio. I drove it out for 9800.00

Is that due to the vehicle or the tires?

That's funny!
BS, but funny.

I've had 2 jeeps , a 1980 CJ5 for 10 years , should have kept. Now have a 1999 Tj sahara for 21 years. Tj has been a good vehicle and has been upgraded over the years. It only has 75,000 miles on it. Axles swapped , lockers , 4 wheel disc among other goodies make it very capable.

Everyone needs a jeep

Use the hell out of y Jeeps. Rio7

Three CJs ( one rebuilt from frontal roll over ).
Two XJ, two ZJ, one WJ.


And today, a new Renegade limited.
First new vehicle ever bought


W rebate and stuff, so close to price of used one
Said screw it. Good enough for me.


Thought trailhawk but i aint wheeling no 35k vehicle.

For light hunting a reg 4x4 works for me.

Wanted a Suzuki Jimny, bare bones. Aint sold here, so this was cheapest new 4x4 i could get.

Definitely better w turbo vs reg, but still a slow poke.

Toss a turkey in the back in a month or so.

Why are you asking about jeep then. Those are the exact opposite of "reliable'. Do yourself a huge favor and buy a Toyota 4runner...

Kid has a 4 runner. Awesome vehicle.
They charge accordingly

I rebuilt the engine on a 2000 XJ along with rear springs, unibody stifners, shocks, and a bunch of other stuff, really liked it but I am 6-1 and was really cramped in it, plus it got about 14 MPG with stock tires. Sold it for a good profit.


Bought and still have a 2015 JKUR Hard Rock. Love it, but wish it had a bit more shoulder room.

Never owned a Jeep..........

did I miss anything ?

Always been a Toyoda guy........

I dont wheel anymore so need basic 4x4 for casual hunting.

My spine cant take moderate wheeling anymore. And w shoulder trashed, wrenching days are over.

A bit of added comfort and traction is all i need.
Wish they still made the old 98 ZJ.


Size, power, capability. Been my fave

My bomber ZJ is at 230K. Had a new waterpump, starter, PS pump and alternator ( all after 200k) and the AC compressor died so did bypass.

Been pretty reliable. This one didnt do the funky anti theft crap.

Jeep still using that Mercedes transmission?

You don't need a Jeep for that. Would be better off with a Subaru Forester. Hell my 2014 Mazda CX-5 is better on snow covered roads than my Grand Cherokee ever was and goes up my steep driveway through 6-8" of snow no problem..
