OK -- I am going purely on the latest popular mechanics magazine that
reviewed the liberty. I used to own a Wrangler (square lights) and it was a
great little off roader - I moved to a 4 Runner since. Where I live, you
dont have too many off roading places. I want to get something new, with
diesel, that I can turn into an off roader and tow. I thought the liberty
would be a good choice. Don't assume I am baiting anyone for anything. Just
wanted to see if the thing had a frame. If it has a frame, the possibilities
are endless... especially with the engine...

Yep, it's unibody, but then again so is the Cherokee and it can be built
into a respectable off road vehicle. I don't ask my Cherokee to do what
my YJ can, but when my son borrows the YJ, I've had occasion to pull it
out with the Cherokee. For Lybby options See
http://jeephorizons.com/tech/rrorr.html

BTW, Sorry about the fishing comment earlier, but I knew the reaction
your question would get.
