Well, obviously to me we have a lot of Jeep owners that couldn't afford one, so they have to knock it. I traded my 364 day old JL for a Wagoneer. I have owned a lot of cars, including the high end stuff. Loved my three Tahoes. Bought the JL in hopes it could replace the Tahoe.. Talk about a joke, not even close. It's a Wrangler, it'll never be anything more. I love my Wranglers (as you can see from the signature) but there are other vehicles kids!!! I am 90% sure I am trading out my TJ finally. Replacing with a vanilla 2 door JL, test driving one this week with the four in it omg.. This will get real bumpers, winch, a front locker, maybe 33" tires, and little more. Maybe a 3" lift, but going to try to do without it, we'll see, it's my knock around town and off road vehicle. The old TJ has 200k on it, and the repairs are getting annoying and untimely.
Back to the Wagoneer, I have to say; Had I done the due dilligence that I normally do, read the HORROR stories of those built in 2021, the stories are endless (almost all computer stuff) I never would have even looked at it. I am lucky, mine was built in February, 4,000 miles and not a issue. It is without question the smoothest riding car I've ever owned. Back in the 90's when I was on the road 50k+ a year, I went through two Caddy Seville STS's, A Lincoln Mark 5 plus several BMW's, a Porsche and a Mercedes. This Wagoneer is all it's supposed to be. Only complaint I have is that I didn't go for the Grand Wagoneer, with the 392 and tow package. I am likely going to get the JL in the spring and we'll see about a Grand Wagoneer after that.
