Re: 2002 JEEP Liberty LIMETED Edition
Been driving an '03 Liberty Sport since May, 2003, and am very happy with
it. I use it for normal "in-town" driving (to work & such) and for moderate
to rough off-road (I like to follow old railroad grades). Without cranking
up the argument as to whether or not it's a "real Jeep", the Liberty is more
than capable of doing exactly what I want out of it.

Re: 2002 JEEP Liberty LIMETED Edition
I don't know enough about its capabilities yet... But I am working on it. So
far all records indicate that this JEEP has been refitted with all the
modified parts to keep it road worthy. I guess the road worth part is only
as good and the modified parts.So far I have given it the old NYC driving 1
2 punch and its help up pretty good. I opened her up on the upper stretches
of Manhattan section of the Henry Hudson Parkway (were folks go to break in
their high performance cars) That particular section has neck breaking 25
mph curves that are real fun in a small high performance car. The fear of
God in you if you drive any thing else through there faster than 40 to 50
mph. If you know what your doing and how to do it you can take a heavy JGCL
through there at up to 65 mph making the other drivers freak out, because
they think you are going to crack up at any time. My ZJ could take those
curves like a Mazda! "Please do not try out that particular stretch of road
at high speeds if you do not know the dos and don't of any JGCL. "especially
if you drive a Laredo type". Anyway today I took the Liberty up there and
opend it up and was able to take the 25 mph curves at just over 50. I really
felt that if I would have asked for more that I might not be here to type
this tonight. So caution to those who would ignore the Liberty's roll over
rating.

far all records indicate that this JEEP has been refitted with all the
modified parts to keep it road worthy. I guess the road worth part is only
as good and the modified parts.So far I have given it the old NYC driving 1
2 punch and its help up pretty good. I opened her up on the upper stretches
of Manhattan section of the Henry Hudson Parkway (were folks go to break in
their high performance cars) That particular section has neck breaking 25
mph curves that are real fun in a small high performance car. The fear of
God in you if you drive any thing else through there faster than 40 to 50
mph. If you know what your doing and how to do it you can take a heavy JGCL
through there at up to 65 mph making the other drivers freak out, because
they think you are going to crack up at any time. My ZJ could take those
curves like a Mazda! "Please do not try out that particular stretch of road
at high speeds if you do not know the dos and don't of any JGCL. "especially
if you drive a Laredo type". Anyway today I took the Liberty up there and
opend it up and was able to take the 25 mph curves at just over 50. I really
felt that if I would have asked for more that I might not be here to type
this tonight. So caution to those who would ignore the Liberty's roll over
rating.

Re: 2002 JEEP Liberty LIMETED Edition
Ok, ok, I will bring it back and exchange it for a heavy ZJ! Jeez touchy
around here, besides it is true it is definetly "NOT" a JEEP. I'll let you
know what I drive home with. I was always in love with the Overland and they
had one sitting there just begging to be taken up the Henry Hudson. uuummm,
all you have to do is toss my family into the equation to convince me,
considering how fanatical I am about my family. We all felt safer in the
JGCL for sure.
