The fact that it is longer then a KJ? Any serious offroading is a nono..unless you put 35" on it..
It had it's drawbacks for being longer, but it also had its advantages over the 2 door. the breakover angle may be less, but that's what skidplates are for, and it might take another one or two backup's to get it's fat ass around a tight corner, but people find solutions.
That it has a minivan engine that makes a lot of noise but doesn't really do anything?.
I've heard this alot, but I've yet to see any kind of engine failure. It hasn't stopped anyone from taking it off into the great beyond beyond either.
That it has wiring on the doors which you are supposed to be able to take out with no problem?.
Isn't it literally a plug that you just remove from the door? haven't really looked into that.
That it has no power mirrors?.
oh lordy- what will Jeeper's do without power mirrors.
That it has no comfort whatsoever?.
when is the last time you heard of someone going to buy any kind of Jeep because it's "comfortable".. the rubicon I test drove had very comfortable seats, and took bumps alot better than my KJ, but of course it was new, where as my KJ is sagging about an inch and a half and is almost 9 years old.
Nevermind, I am not a JK fan..
Keep the KJ as a DD, buy a TJ as a weekend toy.
I'd use one as a DD over my KJ, and plan too as soon as the funds permit. I'll let you know how it turns out.
keep in mind I'm not trying to start an argument, just defending a family member of the brand we all love
