Detailed Review:
I recently purchased my Wrangler with the help of my dad who absolutly loves the car. In fact he offered to trade his luxury 8-cylinder Crown Vic for my not so luxury 4-cylinder Wrangler. Ofcourse I considered it but in the end I wanted the JEEP. I have several friends with older models of the Wrangler and a couple with CJ-7's which don't even have power steering. If you ask me, my 98 Wrangler SE is a tottaly diffrent car from the older models. When you get in the 98 Wrangler it feels like a normal car. Looking at the dashboard it reminds me of the new Cherokee. The car really is attractive inside despite the massive sport bars that run along every corner of the cars top. On the road it feels very smooth and powerfull. I have no problems cruising full speed on the highways or accelerating just as fast as any car when the driver isn't aware of the race at hand. Now that I have fallen in love with my Wrangler I find it extremly boring driving any other car.
