What I love about my jeep is that I can work on it myself! What I hate about my Jeep is that I have to! 😂

Wow. One of, if not the BEST, purely informative TJ videos online. It’s so incredibly refreshing that you’re so well spoken, clear, and honest. True vehicular enthusiasm. No BS, merch drop preludes, or cringe-inducing background music! Ahh. This was great. *So many “influencers” really give whatever they’re keen on a bad wrap because it comes across as “I’m here to help you buy into a culture like I did! Beg your bank for the largest loan you can get or refinance your house so you can get a 392 Rubicon, or a Raptor Bronco, like I’ve got in my spotless garage, and strap GoPro’s on it and some kitschy stickers and document how awesome your life is!” Just no. Grass Roots man. Much props.

I did drive my ‘99 TJ round trip to California…5k mile round trip. It became, and still is, my personal Time Machine.

My 2.5l is not useless. Cheaper than a side by side, have a plow on it, and runs up and down the road wonderfully. Happy to have my 2001 2.5.

You might be right about the sloppy late model castings, but, have to politely disagree regarding the use of synthetics. I bought my 1994 4.0 jeep xj new in November of 1993, after proper break in with mineral oils it has been on a steady diet of factory filters with Mobil 1 and Amsoil. It currently has 424, 000 miles without touching the bottom end

Every man at some point in his life has wanted a jeep. And some of us who’ve owned one ca man still smile when remembering that feeling of driving it.

I have had my 2000 Sahara for 23 years.. 243, 000 miles.. original drive train, never lifted, Automatic. Love it… my favorite car. Remember it’s a Jeep!!

[markjames]

I’ve been running 10w 30 full synthetic oil for the last decade on my 04 4ltr. No problems.

[TheNaturalust]

I totally don't understand the problem with synthetic oil. Doesn't it retain viscosity longer! I mean wtf?

[barotraumabruce]

I shoulda watched this before I bought my ‘05 Wrangler Unlimited. I shouldn’t have watched this now. :-))) Hey! We bought it from our grandson. Didn’t dicker. Didn’t nitpick. Never realized how bad it might be. Glad that it hasn’t gotten there…yet. But, maybe I just don’t know any better. Thanks for this very informative video!

Best way to buy a Jeep is to buy one in the south. Preferably one that has never been driven on the beach, kept in the garage, with a 4.0 and a 5 speed, hard top and cruise control, that has never been lifted, and is completely stock. They are out there. I just bought one, cheap too.

[tomowens]

I bought a 2006 in 2020 for 15000 it’s in very good condition with no rot anywhere. It all depends on where you live an where you buy the Jeep from I live in Arizona and bought mine in Mesa an am very happy with it

I’ve had my ‘98 23 of her 25 yrs. I love it. My sister whines - it’s so bumpy. It’s a Jeep. Run only Castrol oil in it . Not planning to get rid of her for a Loooong time

[vingooch]

Thanks so much. This video made me lose my itch to buy a jeep.

[danielm]

Bought my TJ new in ‘99… still driving it! “If it doesn’t creak, squeak, or leak… then it isn’t a Jeep!” Damn I love that bucket 🤙

[gofasters]

I have 2004 TJ 4 cylinder automatic all stock except 31" tires and love it. I live in a dry climate and don't have any rust issues and it's been garaged all it's life. Thx for the video

[rolenrodes]

I've owned over 6 Jeeps and this is one of the Best Jeep Video's I've seen. So spot on....Love my Jeep.

[jaysmith]

Finally shopping for my first wrangler. It will just be a fun side project, not a daily driver. This video was tremendously helpful

[LibertyHoonigan]

Rescued mine from a salvage yard for $1200. Solid frame, 250k miles. Valvetrain noise but no engine lights. Needs some love but got it at such a good price.

[LAGuitarnetwork]

My dad has a ‘98 2.5 4 cylinder, it’s never had engine work done to it and has 185, 000 on it. It’s been his daily since 2006 with basic maintenance. Now road tripping it 600 miles to Yosemite was a little taxing 😂
