I have an '03 Focus for my 80 mile a day commute. I do take the JLUR at least once a week though.

I'm looking to get a 2 door JLR as a second car, my commute is 35 miles each way, I drive around 20k-25k miles a year.

I traded in my CVT equipped Honda Civic for my 6 speed JLUR. I have a 60 mile a day commute on DCs notoriously bad beltway and 95 corridor. Seriously considered keeping the Civic as it is a perfect commuter car. Glad I didnā€™t- I love driving the Jeep- practicality be damned. Less than one month old and over 2k miles.

My other vehicle is a ā€˜15 Grand Cherokee SRT. I drive about 100 miles a day round trip and find myself going for my JLUR fob more often than the SRT!! Both are great but thereā€™s just something bout the JL!!
Probably not volunteering at Greenpeace on the weekends?

Bold move driving those two vehicles as commuter cars! :)

Lmao! Iā€™m contributing to the beautiful NJ air!! Gas costs me a fortune but I figure if I have to drive as much as I do, I may as well love what I drive!

I second that. I drive 40 miles about 5 days/week on avg. I used to drive a Fit. I got to the point that I couldn't stand being in such a tiny vehicle- so many semis and other giant trucks couldn't/didn't see me many times. The benefit of barely watching the gas gauge needle move was eventually overcome by the desire to not die on the highway. Traded the Fit in. Indominus is my DD.

I live on the other side of the Delaware Bay, but I feel like NJ gets a really bad rap. Parts of NJ are gorgeous!

I have a company issued Ford truck as my sales vehicle that I'm required to take home every day for lack of parking space at the office. The Jeep is new so I make excuses to drive it in the evenings but at some point when the new is worn off, I will sometimes only drive it on the weekends.

Well I have a Ram 2500 truck and a Sienna mini-van I could take but I almost never do. Just hate not driving my Jeep, if I can.

I don't have the dough for 2 vehicles on my insurance policy, so my JLU is my daily. Only 17 miles to work so it's all good

Mostly an evening & weekend vehicle as Iā€™m on the road in a work vehicle M-F, which is nice not putting the mileage on my first new vehicle but also sad since I hardly get to drive it!
