Forbes 37 worst cars, Jeep on the list 5 or 6 times

3. Jeep Wrangler/Wrangler Unlimited

Though some might argue the iconic Wrangler and its four-door Wrangler Unlimited version are among the best-performing off-road vehicles, they suffer from limited passenger comfort, harsh and erratic ride and handling abilities and excessive wind noise at higher speeds. True, they get great resale value, but the Wranglers placed among the lowest scoring models in Consumer Reports’ testing, with the Unlimited also falling on its worst-values list; the original Jeep’s descendent also gets low marks in initial quality, performance, and reliability from J.D. Power.

If only wandering steering wasn't an issue, I totally disagree with the article.

Who cares?

Edit: more importantly, why should anyone else care?

And yet it won Motor Trends SUV of the year award...

But when you've gotta have an off-roader—or want to look like you spend weekends stomping terra firma—the Jeep is impossible to beat. Tracing its lineage to the original Willys MB, the Wrangler navigates nostalgia without getting stuck in it. The Jeep Wrangler is remarkably well-rounded for its core purpose, and it's a most deserving SUV of the Year.

Wasn't sure what a "fluck" was so I looked it up. Apparently it's bad luck followed by good luck.

Bad luck: being put on Forbe's naughty list.

Good luck: chases off all those fringe buyers who only finds faults with the awesomeness of the Wrangler.

Win-win in my book!

Bummer, I was going to ask you to go-fund me 20K for an axle swap, oh well off to seduce a different celebrity.

You may love your Jeep - I do - but NOTHING in that paragraph is wrong.

"limited passenger comfort, harsh and erratic ride and handling abilities and excessive wind noise at higher speeds." It's 100% subjective BS. Ok, maybe 80%, can't argue with the financial data and test results.

Easy fixes. Forget the passengers. Only drive in circles. Turn up the radio

Heck, i just retired an '88 Poor-Runner with over 1/4 million miles, this new Jeep is like stepping up to a Bentley to me, at least as far as 4x4's go.

Not surprised, don't care...and not many people appear to care, either, since Wranglers sell in ridiculous amounts.
