Re: preparing for new driver - liberty?
 
Good day,

Nothing wrong with a Liberty...
If your daughter learns who to "drive", then there is nothing wrong
with a jeep Liberty.
It holds 4 passengers and is more than capable in stock form(Although
skid plates are recommended for more abrasive use) to tackle some off
road stuff. Other than that, there is nothing wrong with it as a daily
driver.
Unless your personal opinion, vehicle preference gets in the way.

And as far as getting your girl a "gas guzzler" which probably handles
worse than a Jeep Liberty... The liberty most definitely handles
better, Take my word for it... I rally race a car and use my Liberty
as a chase vehicle and it is more than capable of going slidedays on
command. (Without flipping over or rolling... But then again, I know
how to drive!)

But suppose you run into her driving '69 Lincoln, head on one of your

Re: preparing for new driver - liberty?
 
We are talking about a "Daily driver" here.
There still is nothing wrong with a Jeep Liberty for that purpose.

And suppose that you Mr. ------ The Third, were driving "that" '69
Lincoln (with suicide doors of course), and were unfortunately
involved in that " head on" accident with a Jeep Liberty? Chances are
(I've done extensive research on the Internet and in independent
sources over the past 25 years regarding automotive collisions that
cause bodily harm) that indicates that the occupants of the " 1969
Ford/Mercury Lincoln would be critically injured or a fatality due to
the fact that the grossly inadequate lap belts were even used !
Back then an automobile was built for aesthetics, not safety.
Today's vehicles are designed with safety first. And that's a fact!
That's why airbags were implemented, for all you folks below the 49th
parallel who do not "think" a seatbelt is necessary and "I won't get
into an accident because I'm a better driver than the rest"

So, now, at the end of the day... What is wrong with a Jeep Liberty
for a young lady who just aced her drivers licence exam and is more
than likely going to use it as a daily driver?

Cheers

Ryan
