What I like about Jeeps is that they are easy to up-keep. Fun to drive, and parts for this off road SUV are very cheap and easy for the weekend mechanic to do. The only bad thing I have against the Jeep is the gas mileage. It's bad and if it was improved it would be an all around great SUV. How it preforms on the road depends on the skill of the driver; if you have driven these types of SUV's before then you can expect the same response. However, if you drive a sports car and drive this it will be a night and day comparison.
