Used as intended, the previous generation JK Wrangler was, and still is, rather brilliant – at one specific thing...
Does Jeep's all-new short-wheelbase Wrangler keep the tradition alive, while still appealing to the modern buyer?

The hardest-core Wrangler JL gains a wee bit of refinement.
Buying a Wrangler isn't a decision based on a strong form of logic. It comes from another place; the other part of our body that has a say in these kinds of decisions. You’re looking at one because you want it, not because it makes sense from a practical or sensible point of view. The good news is the JL Wrangler is much improved over the JK, especially the interior, infotainment and general refinement...
The Five Quarter Concept shows that the people behind the Jeep brand, designers and engineers, are passionate enthusiasts of the brand that see more than just a mode of transport or medium for profit. They see the Wrangler (and now Gladiator) as the core of what the brand is all about – something they defend and promote with vigour.

I recently fulfilled a long-time dream and bought a Jeep Wrangler. It has an interior you can hose out! Being a special edition it has a temperature gauge and compass in the rear-view mirror. Amazing technology. I wanted a four-seat convertible and it fits the bill perfectly...
My 1996 Jeep Wrangler, or TJ as it is known to enthusiasts' world (USA) wide, is a complete departure for me. As an avid car enthusiast I have owned a dozen cars in my twenty-something years long life and they have been varied and dissimilar with the only common feature being that they must entertain me...
