Review: 2010 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon

February 4, 2010

Corvette. Mustang. Wrangler. If one of these storied names seems out of place to you, it shouldn’t. The Jeep Wrangler, which traces its ancestry back to the Willy’s Jeeps of World War II fame, and the later, civilian CJ’s built by AMC, is an enduring symbol of American ingenuity done right. The Wrangler is something [...]

Jeep Wrangler Islander Reminds You to Smile

January 11, 2010

Sure, it’s just another low-cost job by Chrysler to remind everyone that they are still around in the absence of new vehicles or overhauls, but in my eyes the Wrangler Islander is a success. Intended or not, the Islander can’t help but remind you that Jeep isn’t just an SUV but a lifestyle. Forget those [...]

2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon: Letting the outdoors in

May 11, 2008

Just as the Jeeps of the Seventies lit up my imagination, the 2008 Wrangler Unlimited caught the attention of our boys and all of their friends.

April 13, 2008

Our first experience with the Wrangler Unlimited was on a hot, dry and dusty day in the Pocono Mountains, which meant we didn’t get an opportunity to get the truck dirty. We did manage to make it flex and got more than a few shots of it with the suspension at full droop. I figured [...]

This week in The Garage: 2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon

April 12, 2008

With vehicles, like many other things in life, one either gets it, or one doesn’t. JEEP is one of those polarizing brands that people either don’t understand or they love the brand concept so much that they are willing to look past a few flaws interesting character traits.

With Hummer sales plunging into the abyss, showing a 22 percent decline this year, I guess GM figures that the only way to proceed is to downsize.

Off road test: Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon

September 13, 2007

Like most guys, I’ve always had a fondness for Jeeps. The classic looks, coupled with off road capability brings to mind thoughts of cruising down to Baja with a blonde and a surfboard. As often happens with such fantasies though, reality is a whole different image. There is little place for a 4 passenger convertible [...]

2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

April 26, 2006

There seems to be some interesting action over in the Jeep camp lately and I can’t wait to see the end results. Perhaps the biggest news is that they’ve finally come to grips with some branding issues that have gone on for years.

Years ago, the Jeep marketing boys in the US decided that the CJ [...]
