    Jeeps are unbelievable pieces of shit, overpriced and unreliable. But at least I understand the appeal of the basic Jeep form factor with the 4WD and the removable top and doors and whatnot; I love driving with the wind in my face and it’s probably nice to be at least theoretically capable of a little offroading.

    What I don’t understand is people buying Jeep-branded cars. Then you’re just getting an overpriced and unreliable piece of shit car.

      I rode with someone who had one of their trucks and it was a very unpleasant ride. I don’t understand why anyone would choose to buy it.

        That harsh ride mostly comes from the tire and shock absorber set they had than just being a bad ride. If his pavement princess was setup to be to “manly” it would suck to ride in.

        You would find my Dodge Hemi a nasty harsh ride also. But I have stiff tires and heavy duty shocks for when I tow a 24,000lbs/1100kg trailer with heavy loads. It’s not a ride you want to take for a long distance for sure but necessary for the usage.
