Mountaineer, my God, you sound EXACTLY like me. Here I thought I was the only one LOL. At one point a few years ago, I was through 8 vehicles in the space of literally 8 years. I stopped after I got the H3 in '07. As an aside, I had the '06 Grand Cherokee SRT-8. That truck was nasty with the 6.1...
Mountaineer, I hear ya about the "newest toy" syndrome. It is really hard to resist. It's funny, I was at a funeral a couple of weeks ago and my cousin and his wife had just purchased a black 4-door JK as a second car. So as I was checking it out, my sister walks up behind me and out of the...
I totally understand what you mean. But I am still curious to drive the Wrangler with the Pentastar to measure the disparity between it and the 3.8. I tell you one thing, the folks at the Wrangler forums are almost fanatical in their devotion.
And as far as moving to a Toyota, I ALWAYS admired the brand because of the legendary dependibility factory. When my brother was in his 20's (in the early to mid 80's), he drove a beat up old blue Toyota Corrolla. That thing would not die. I still remember it clear as day. I know he bought it...
It's ironic, I just bumped into a guy in the hall who attended the same High School as I, in fact we graduated the same year and had lunch together one year. It's a coincidence that happens to work at the same company. He just told me that he owns a Toyota Avalon with 240K + miles on it. He's...
What I should do is keep my T4R and just get the 2012 Wrangler...but in this economy and with this administration, it's very hard to predict what's going to happen....there is too damn much uncertainty.....better to be conservative and maintain a strong cash position....that's the banker in my...
Engineer, I have always admired the T4R and Toyota for that matter...Geez, I even talked my ex-girlfriend into buying a Rav4...and my current girlfriend is looking at the Rav4's herself on my recommendation....it's not brand loyalty for me....if anyting, I should be a Ford man as my...
You both make great points....thank you very much for the input...believe me, I appreciate it......there is a real fun factor with the Jeep on so many levels, especially during the summertime, but it is not practical as a DD for sure...so I am really drawn to keeping the T4R and buying a used...
OK, here is my story. I’ve been a lurker on these boards for at least a month or two prior to taking ownership of a mag-grey 2011 T4R Limited in April. Needless to say, I’ve devoted hours upon hours researching the T4R (and other SUV’s under consideration) because I wanted to be 100% sure of my...
