I have waited to own a Jeep for 20 years, and now I have one! There is not much I dislike about my Jeep! I chose an older style as I feel the newer styles are more like a car ride and not Jeep ride. I want the tough stock old school model. I love the look of the older Jeeps in and out. A Jeep ride is not the most comfortable ride but it is one of the more fun rides I've had. They are also not the most roomiest of vehicles as I have a tough time getting groceries or piling all my kids and dogs in it at once. As my husband told me an old Jeep is not an everyday rider, and he was right! It is my personal fun vehicle so most generally I am the only one it as we have other vehicles to haul in. There are not blind spots that have effected my drive, you can pretty much see where everyone is at in a Jeep being high profile and plenty of tall windows to look out. I bought it used two years ago and have not had it in the shop once yet and it has 137,000 miles on it and still runs like a champ! 100% fun to drive, I smile and wave at other Jeepers the whole time I'm in it. A Jeep handles like a Jeep, if you have ever drove one you know what I mean. Not my favorite choice of vehicle when I am on the curvy back roads as the Jeep does not take them great. As far as safety goes, yes, I feel safe and tough and mean! EVERYONE SHOULD OWN A JEEP ONCE IN THEIR LIVES!! IT'S A JEEP THING!
