I bought this vehicle for a dual purpose and it serves both perfectly. It has a very smooth ride for daily driving and has the ruggedness and off road capability for weekends on the trails. It even has a pretty smooth ride on the off road trails. There is plenty of space in the second row seating for other adults to ride with me. And excellent storage in the trunk. I can fit all my camping gear with space to spare.

I have every intention of handing down my current Jeep to our son in three years, and purchasing another. I am so impressed with the four wheel drive. We live in Wisconsin, so I need that to be top notch! The gas mileage is great, around 22 mpg with my 10 mile drive to town. There is plenty of room for taller people in the back to be comfortable, and plenty of room to load stuff for a trip. We took this Jeep on a trip to Florida (when it was three years old) and had no issues whatsoever. There are no strange noises, and the interior has held up quite nicely for all we put it through. We love driving with the tops off, and love how easy they are to take off and put on. The locking consoles help out with that quite a bit. You definitely feel the pull on a windy day, but that happens with every high profile vehicle. We have customized our Jeep quite a bit, and we love how easy it is to find great additions or custom pieces to make it unique to you. It is easy to get around in smaller spaces than a full size truck would be.
