WHAT?? They left out my beloved CJ7? Blasphemy! The best ever with the CJ5 base and a slightly lengthened wheelbase.

I wonder if they will explain why lately I am seeing Jeeps like this, with Scuba gear attached that looks like a factory stock vehicle with this extra apparatus. The weird thing is I may see 2 or 3 of these in one day after never seeing anything like this in the last 40 years. Is this some new fad or what?

One day my 65 Willys and 82 cj7 will be roadworthy again.

I think The Toyota FJ40 is a snazzier looking vehicle, but I own a 1981 CJ-5.

Anyone remember when Subaru imported some 2 cylinder two cycle 4 wheel drives back around 1974? I saw the min Farmington NM back then. I also found some had been imported to Kansas City, but the EPA stopped them. Later they imported the Samurai.

At the link below are images of the model of the military Jeep that is just like one I used driving around a lot of South Korea in 1960s.

I'll admit the new Jeep Scrambler looks interesting:

I’m not crazy about the 3.7 but it beats the old fours

Sad to say, but it won’t be long before the fools at FCA turn the iconic Wrangler into just another Fiat on steroids.

And still. Still they will ask and get north of $40K for these things.

bttt - My Liberty almost qualifies as a Jeep. ;o) Anyway I bought it to compliment my FR handle and it has served me well for 125,000 miles. I'm thinking about buying a new Toyota Rav4 but will keep my Jeep as a back-up.

Today’s Jeeps have sadly devolved severely!

They “Look” like they should be impressive, but they don’t even offer a vehicle that can tackle the staging area of the Rubicon presently.

I own lots of Jeeps, but I won’t even ride in today’s jokes.

Any comparison that doesn't picture the "headlights" evolution is incomplete.

At this time, is Fiat benefiting from transfer of Jeep technology to their non-US based products, or is Jeep suffering from the transfer of Fiat technology to them.

(* I know Fiat owns Ferrari. I could be one of the only living Americans that owned two Fiats)
