    Stock jeeps, besides the wrangler and that pickup thingy maybe, aren’t much good off road anyway.

    Eh, I’d add old XJ and ZJ models to that list of exceptions as well. Those things could do some shit. Not quite as good as the Wrangler, but they were also much more reasonable daily driver vehicles, too.

      Oh for sure. I mostly meant in terms of new or newish stock Jeeps. Back in the day they actually managed to make a decent SUV.

      With the back seat folded up, the wrangler is a good daily as long as you’re not commuting far.

        I used to daily one, sure.

        It’s a usable daily, not sure I’d call it a good one. It’s still highly compromised, poorly insulated, loud, prone to roof leaks, etc.

          Mines 15 years old and I haven’t experienced roof leaks, even in car washes. It is loud, not as loud as my MX-5 though. My biggest complaint with the jeep is driving on the highway when it’s windy. That shit is scary AF.
