My feeling is newer Jeeps are probably more reliable than most other cars, if not more so. Little things that are easy to fix will break, but if you maintain that Jeep properly, you'll be able to keep on driving and driving and driving with never a worry.......

But that's from the perspective of my 156k '98. Not a newer 4 door LWB model.

I bought my TJ late last August and have put on about 14k since then. My repair/maintenance budget was minimal. Basically oil changes and fluid checks at 3 to 4k. Plus it needed a new battery when it got really cold to replace what looked like the original one. Next oil change it's a tire rotation and balancing. Everything else works great except my CMHSL and one reverse bulb. Plus the rear wiper, washer and lighter don't work but I don't really miss them (except the lighter). I'll fix those little things myself in the spring. And I need to get a matching wheel for my spare and 5 black center caps.

I'll probably buy cheap chrome center caps, strip them with plastic media in a blast cabinet, clean them, then prime and paint them with 5 or more coats of gloss black Dupont Imron. But that has nothing to do with your question :alcoholic:

I think if you're a Jeep kind of guy, you'll love the quirky yet reliable behavior of your Jeep. If you are a poser, you will get fed up with it fast. I like the fact that my '98 has no bells and whistles yet.
