Because they don't want to drive a vehicle that requires a road side kit that includes spare parts and fluids

The unfortunate acronym givin to JEEP (Just Empty Every Pocket) has misguided most people into believing that they are a useless moneypit that will cost more than its supposedly worth!!!! But as all of us that owns one knows..... THEY ARE MOST DEFINITELY WORTH EVERY F***** DIME!!!!

Because of all of the poor reliability rumors that the uninformed heard and believed.
178 thousand miles, and it runs perfect.

Because if everyone owned a Jeep, Us Jeep owners wouldn't have anyone to tow out on the trails or out of snow banks

No doubt. I'm sure I'll end up putting more money into my xj than any vehicle I've owned, but I've never had a vehicle that I know will reach over 300k miles if not 400k
