My friend owns a jeep CJ with absolutely obscene sized tires, every time I ride in it I think I'm gonna get plastered against the road way

Why don't CJs have tachs? Frustrating.

What would the Wagoneer's intention be? I can't think of what the market is for Land Rover aside from rappers and football stars.

Safety Dance posted:Heck, just this evening I overheard a couple of people in my building talking about the best place in the city to get their Range Rovers serviced. There's a market for luxury SUVs, absolutely. I love luxury SUVs, I just don't like the people who buy them. The only place to buy a Land Rover here is deep in the city, so I don't see many. Did see a G-Wagon though

Was at the Jeep dealer with a friend When did Wranglers get so expensive? They seemed way over what should be a simple mechanical design bare bones Back to looking at XJs and CJs

When you're talking offroad, what is the best Jeep you can go modern, classic?

Alright Jeep thread, I used to own an XJ (rip, sold for parts), but I'm getting back into the JEEP THING I have a maximum budget of 7K, I want a car I can bounce offroad, but if I need to take it a few miles (Let's say, 50-100), should I go Cherokee, early 90's Wrangler, or other?

Also, with the 4.0L, what mileage should I say no sale if the body isn't rusted? The ones I've found out-of-state, not rusted all seem to exceed 180K miles

Would I be dumb for buying a ZJ with 200K milage on the odometer. It has the 4.0L engine, it appears to have no rust but has some rocker panel damage and a cracked rear bumper.

When you guys take a gun at a steep hill with snow, what do you guys use? My friend says 3rd Gear 4 HI is the best if you get speed up. (XJ)

He said when he was in 4LO he wasn't getting enough power and when he was going up the hill it just spun spun spun on the ice, 4HI was what got it going. I'm still new to offroading!

Krakkles posted:That's backwards. The gearing in 4LO provides more (effective) power, which apparently just spun the wheels (probably due to poor throttle control). The taller gearing in 4HI reduced the power to the point that his throttle control wasn't an issue. I can't drive an XJ worth a drat, that thing has the touchiest pedal ever. Is that just me or does it genuinely have a touchy pedal?

So basically, get a stock Wrangler Sport if you want to play dress up, and go for a Wrangler Rubicon if you want something that is straight get up and go, with the Sahara being simple luxury and the other trim levels being random? Also what does Sport S mean?
