Re: The end of another Wrangler era
 
You bet, I would rather have the independent rear suspension in my
'89 Thunderbird, like the Corvette, it's the only way to hug the road at
speed, and still have that cushy ride:

Yes, I agree. I guess I should clarify my statement. I will never buy
another Wrangler to _replace_ my TJ. Now additional vehicles that
wouldn't serve the exact purpose are always possible. I always thought a
4 door Wrangler would be cool. I even found myself looking at the AEV
conversions at times. While I never thought a YJ was a upgrade from a
CJ, I think the TJ is.

JMHO,
