What about those of us who don't enjoy destroying our Jeeps and just
want a vehicle that really goes anywhere we want--with the top down?

Or those of us who inherited the family jeep in 1975 (it was 19 years old, I
was 21) and kept it till '92. I went without for a while and just got a
great deal on a '01 Sahara with only 10K on it (5 speed with D44 thank you).
Am I no longer a "Jeeper" because I've been gone a while and now own a
luxury liner with an injected 4.0 instead of a bare bones CJ with an F head.
I gotta tell you I test drove my Jeep on a whim just to see what DC had done
to them, 2 hours of haggling later it was in the garage, I never felt so at
home. As soon as the warantee is up it will change, until then the dealer
is getting no outs from me on any necessary repairs.
