There. I fixed it for you.Jeep sells 250k of these a year, and they are the stars of dental building parking lots. 50k of those going to off road enthusiasts sounds about right. Jeep, like Bronco (and I'm sure Bronco will soon be a brand soon, like Ram) is mainly bought for image, as well as removable doors and roof.
Wranglers used to be the stars at high school parking lots...when you could buy them new for $12,000. At $60,000...not so much...
My sister in law grew up in a small town in northern British Columbia. She tells fond stories of Jeeping in the bush in a friendās TJ.
I just canāt imagine young people, or anyone for that matter, in the bush driving a JL. The complexity of the electronics alone renders it unable to venture more than 200 miles from the nearest dealership. And that is the sad reality about modern Jeeps.
I am still undecided if I am going to keep this JL past its warranty. It will depend how the electronics behave, no doubt.
I might just get a XJ or a WJ and build it.
