The last generation of the great Jeep Wranglers are the TJ series. They’re really reliable, and all I’ve had to do was swap out the alternator because apparently the old one had some carbon built up. Then a tune up all because the previous owner abused it

Incredible vehicle. Had 2 YJs. One with the renegade body styling package. When they changed the model around 96 and went back to round headlights they also changed the dashboard to make it look all plasticky and had no style. So for me it's always the older YJ or CJ. They are tougher than the new jeeps also. Heavy on juice but a lovely throaty growl to that engine. Also the half doors look far superior to the full door, the lines flow along the car better and much more fun driving on a nice day

@dominiquestephenson195 4 года назад

I know exactly what you’re saying! Back in 84 I was stationed in San Diego and bought a new 4Runner for Baja surf trips. Over the years I upgraded (currently have an 03 4Runner) but INSTANTLY loved the ride of a 95 YJ I drove for work for a couple years. The leaf spring ride, road feel and nimble steering brought back the feel of the 80’s tech that I grew up with. When the city that I worked for put up two YJ’s for County auction I was there with $1600 (all I had) in my pocket. Friends told me I’d be able to get one for $500 but the auction was packed and our jeeps were fleet maintained and in great shape. The first one came up early and blew past my measly $1600 bid and sold for $4600. The second finally came up two hours later but alas blew past my bid and I left at that point. It was a sad day, I had driven both jeeps and had a favorite but would have been happy with either as just an off-road and snow toy machine!

My stock 1993 4.0L yj Sahara is super fun to drive. I have driven it through ankle deep mud, about 2.5' of water, and over a 4' high snow pile. Never got stuck. It accelerates pretty good as well on city streets. Gas mileage does suck though.

I owned a 1988 Jeep Cherokee Laredo. I bought it used for $7000.00. It had 99,000 miles on it. I liked it, but had several problems with it. A front wheel bearing went out, the steering column came loose, and I had to replace the front brake cylinders. I never had any problems with the inline six cylinder engine or the automatic transmission. It was the best snow vehicle I ever owned. I gave to my son when it had 140, 000 miles on it. He put forty thousand more miles on it, before he traded it in. I think he got a thousand dollars credit on trade in value. The headliner was loose and falling down. All in all, I feel like I got my money's worth out of it.

@mongo5054 5 лет назад

I own a 2003 JEEP Wrangler. It has the 4.0 inline six engine. When I bought it, it was fun until I started noticing it was guzzling gas, slightly underpowered, and parts were starting to fail. My battery burned up and the engine started to act as if it had blown it’s gasket. Well, it was becoming a real money pit and the Chrysler parts were ridiculously expensive. So I went to a friend that’s a mechanic and we pulled the engine, shaved the block, and replaced a bunch of parts with after market parts. Now every mechanic that test drives my JEEP after minor work like tires, always ask me if it’s for sale. It has more power, gets great gas mileage, and hasn’t given me a problem since the work was completed. Even my daughter has warned me that when I buy something else, she owns the JEEP!

Scotty’s gonna hate me but......... I sold my 1990 Toyota Camry that I purchased new to buy a ‘92 Jeep Wrangler. I was bored with the Camry. The Jeep(Spanish pronunciation “Heap”) threw a rod at 6,000 miles. Broke a rear yoke after every oil change so I sold it at 30,000 miles and bought a Honda Civic hatchback.

I still think that the new Jeep Wrangler Sahara’s JL’s are made really well. Well coming from a mechanics eye says something else.

Had an 88 just like it, but, in Miami Fl. the ac kept breaking, even with the ac on the heat was unbearable through the canvas top

Nice Wrangler. Some of the Jeeps with the 4.2 and automatic had Full time 4wd. That might be why his gas mileage is so low. One of my brothers had a 79 CJ-7 Golden Eagle with the 4.2 automatic and it was full time 4wd. I am only guessing due to seeing the interior more closely. That is my thought.

Scotty kilmer i have a nissan maxima 2011 sv sport it showed a p0101 code for check engine wich is the mass airflow sensor i changed it out and erased the code and the same code came back on

@Saint696Anger 5 лет назад

Probably wiring does it happen when it's damp or wet out? I love the old Maxima's

Mine is a 2005 Wrangler Unlimited 2 Door 4.0 L 6 speed. Funny your mpg is so bad. I get 19-20 on the highway 14-15 in town. Mine is punched out to 4.9L. My all time favorite "car."
