Had a jeep. It was great, after I replaced every stock suspension component. The Jeep was biggest money pit I ever had. Maybe they were better back in the day before FCA/Stellantis

Show me on this doll where Jeep touched Ford...

As an owner of both products, with love/hate for both products and their fanatics, I do find the internet screeching on the topic hilarious.

Well, time to go back to the Ford "build section" and look at floor mats, bed dampers, and stickers (wink face)

From the guy whose parent company is "Fix It Again Tony!"

Let he who is without recalls cast the first lug nut.

Jeep is far from the paragon of quality. The only thing they have going for them is the name.

Hopefully, the delay of the 6G Ranger will create a better product when launched with hopefully minimal hiccups. Final design was approved in 2019. I see the next generation Colorado and Tacoma are beginning to be just tested. Them having a 2023/2024 release date, with less development.

This guy is talking as if any of his customers actually wheel their Grand Cherokee on anything tougher than the speed bumps at Target. The Trailhawks, Timberlines, TrailSports, etc are just more Ego-mobiles that people pay extra for to advertise their imaginary lifestyle.

I love Jeeps. I’ve owned three of them - a 1957, and two 1977s. What I love most about them is their ruggedness and simplicity. The classic Jeep, the one that made the brand what it is, has been gone for a very long time. The party ended in 1986, when the last CJ-7 left the factory. The early Wranglers, with leaf spring suspension, are mostly acceptable. Every so-called “improvement” since then has prioritized on-road performance and drivability, for the sole purpose of growing the market. Today’s Wrangler is, at most, visually similar to the original, but disappointing in every attribute that made the original so good.

You could probably say something similar about every Bronco made after 1977.

That’s the one, LOL. I’ve been enjoying watching The Seekers videos on YouTube, with remastered audio. Could be time to move on…

Red Hot Negative on that.

Also people who prefer Barqs over A&W are heathens.
I'm a class AAA heathen because I don't like Root Beer at all so no argument from me there.
