We can all recognize the iconic Jeep is the Wrangler, but there are plenty of other models they produce for different uses and customers. If you were buying a new Jeep today, which model would you choose and why?
Now, what if purchase price was not a factor? Maybe a rich relative would buy it for you. Maybe you finally won the lottery! Could be a genie emerges from that old oil lamp in the attic at Grandpa’s house that he never told you about and will only grant you a Jeep wish. haha Does that change things for you at all?
I have a JK 2 door and a WK2 Grand Cherokee V8 which is a great mix for me. The JK is for weekends and fun adventures, and the GC is for city daily driving, road trips, and towing. It also allows me to keep the miles nice and low on the JK so it’ll last me a long time.
But yeah if price wasn’t a factor and I was buying one today, it would be a 392!
I’ve owned a '59 FC, '89 SJ (Grand Wagoneer), '95 ZJ, '04 WJ, and now have a '16 BU and a '17 MK74. If I was ever able to get the FC-170 restored and running, I would think that would have been my favorite, but besides that the Grand Wagoneer was my favorite, but had to sell it sadly. I do like my Patriot a whole lot, but it lacks the personality of the Grand Wagoneer, but I can’t complain about 20mpg!
