Clearly if they'd used Amsoil it could've gone on a single lifetime fill.
2 lifetimes. They would use it in your next jeep in 5 years.

Look it’s probably better I don’t know about any of that. No need to be some kind of accessory after the fact or some other legal entanglements
Don't worry Terry, we know you're good at getting out of even written contracts, say for the provisioning of a cold beverage via mail order, so I don't think knowing about Kevin's extracurricular murdering would stick to you.

Yet the JL largely doesn't seem to fit that description...with so many needing major engine work by the 80k mark, and so many others needing endless dealer visits for electrical issues. This forum is stuffed with examples of JLs sitting at dealers because the dealers have no idea what to do to fix them. So yeah...if you need a vehicle to be there for you every day, day after day, it definitely would appear to be a bad idea to choose a JL.
Alright man, I've gotta ask. Why are you here and own one? To hear you tell it, they are a total POS, yet I know you've been here quite a while.

Maybe it's because the families already been cut up and stored in the deep freezer that he spends so much time here?
I doubt that.
Its hard to find both an above average knife and a freezer that can get the work done.

Fair question, though it's been addressed quite a few times. In short, I simply don't believe that an otherwise exciting and useful vehicle needs to be completely ruled out because it's not well built.

I've got two high quality vehicles that I can depend on if needed, so having the Wrangler to add some "party" to the garage seems a good choice.

I don't propose that no one should buy a JL...absolutely not. I just want to make sure that prospective buyers understand what they are getting into and aren't mislead by the fanboys.

But you ARE putting words in my mouth. I said goodbye IN A REPLY TO A CONVERSATION. Furthermore, I have stated repeatedly, in threads that you were in, IN REPLIES THAT YOU TAPPED YOUR FAVORITE LITTLE EMOJI ON, that I will ALWAYS respond to adults wanting to have an actual discussion. So again - you haven't been paying attention. If you HAD been paying attention, you'd already know that when I said i'm out, it meant that I was out of that childish discussion.

We've been over this before too. You just never learn.
So yea the keep it vague enough you can make up what you meant after the fact got it.

What I don't like about the JD Powers surveys are that they include things like infotainment glitches, which I don't really consider issues of overall reliability/dependability.
I had my infotainment system glitch a few weeks ago. That meant no heat, no air conditioning, no back up camera, etc.

You might need real psychiatric help. It can't be healthy for your relationships with family and friends. No wonder you spend so much time here.
Shit. I spend a lot of time here too. Oh fuck, is it contagious?

Edit: never mind. I can readily admit that I, on occasion, might possibly be wrong incorrect in error mistaken. Phew, that was close.
