Best one yet

As a YJ owner, Doug messed up some stuff here, though I think he did a great job explaining what it feels like to drive. They are actually "peppier" than you'd expect with the 4.0L thanks to a respectable 225 lb-ft of torque, which isn't half bad on a ~3000lb vehicle. 1. The AC-equipped Wranglers did have front vents, but most didn't have the AC option. However, if you drive one in the cold, you quickly realize the YJs have an absolute blast furnace of a heater, and you'll be very toasty in no time. I actually had to crack the windows a bit in a snowstorm as it was getting so warm inside. You also sit very close to the windshield, so you can feel the defrost vent under the windshield. You really don't need dash vents to be comfortable. 2. They might have updated the horn in later years. My 1995 has a Hella-style snail horn, and it's plenty loud, with a “commanding” tone. 3. I think that Jeep was missing a bunch of interior carpet. The should have been carpet all around the rear fenders, under the rear bench, and under the door sills. Yes, the YJs are very basic, but that one looks a lot more bare than mine. 4. As other people have said, that "blank gauge" is an indicator for when the Jeep is in 4WD. Early YJs had an analog clock in that spot and a 4x4 indicator in the dash. In later years, the stereo had a digital clock, so they deleted the analog clock and moved the 4x4 indicator to the now-empty gauge pod. Probably just a cost saving thing. 5. He should have gotten into the back seat on the passenger side. The entire passenger seat frame swings forward and makes getting to the back a piece of cake. Since it's the frame that moves, none of the passenger seat adjustments are changed. On later years, the seats changed from the dial tilt to a lever tilt, and on my YJ Sahara, the driver's seat has a latch on the back that instantly tilts the seat back forward for getting into the back on that side if you really need to. It looks like the older years can't do that though.

No buzzer and no foot lights. Why? To remove the doors! Just unscrew one screw on the bottom hinge, pull upon door. Both my YJs had the half doors and zipper windows. Loved them! Also, both my YJs had carpet over the metal shifter plates.

Watching doug climb into the back through the driver side was like watching an old drunk guy try to walk up the down escalator. The passenger seat moves forward about a mile with a simple lever pull, its actually very easy to get into the back.

The "blank gauge" is actually where the "4WD" indicator lights up when you are in 4WD. And the buzzer is easy to fix by disconnecting the switch. Source: former YJ owner.

I internal cried for a few reasons after watching this video. As long as I can remember my dad has always bought a Jeep. He refuses to buy anything but it. The first Jeep my dad ever bought was a ‘95 Jeep Wrangler rio grande edition. As far as exterior design, it didn’t exactly look like the renegade but the interior looks almost identical (but we had special seats that came in a neon jungle scratch design). Just by watching this I can smell the interior and feel the small ‘90s seats wrapped around me. Hearing the buzz of the door open warning sent a wave of flash backs from when I was little. I can just feel turning the ‘90s knobs on the old style radio, listening to a bad quality early 2000s song. All the dials and the look of the center consol made me extremely nostalgic. I know no ones gonna see this but I just thought I would share this.

The passenger seat is articulated on these old Wranglers so that it lifts forward allowing access to the back. The drivers seat doesn't. It would have been far easier to get in from the passenger side. Also on the other trim levels of Wrangler there is a bracket that prevents the rear spare tire from hitting the tail light. On the Renegade the company that converted the Jeep left the bracket off as it would interfere with the "fender flares". Just some FYI.

That is not completely original. The Renegade seats were cloth and not vinyl like that one. The passenger seat would tumble upwards to allow passenger entry to the rear. Not the twisting action you had to do here which confirms not original seats. Also that carpet is not original which is why it is not covering the transmisión cover or rear area. It’s also missing the front steering box skid plate. As for the rear tailgate, the original one had a bumpstop next to the tail light which would stop the tailgate. Also, AC was available. In general it’s a great condition vehicle but not original.

There's plenty of times Doug will mis-speak some aspect of a vehicle, miss some piece of history, or some other obvious thing so I doubt much "research" goes into it beyond some Google searches except for the cases of really special, exotic, cars or the owner of a rare/exotic car being particularly knowledgeable. Much of the time some of the things Doug says to "explain" aspects I take with a grain of salt if it sounds dubious to me and I do my own research. Most annoying to me is when he says things like, "no idea what this blank switch does" or "most people wouldn't know about this part of the vehicle" when anyone vehicle owner worth his salt reads through the owners manual and usually answers to questions like, "what switch is supposed to be here?" can be answered by looking in the owner's manual section on options this particular vehicle doesn't have. But, overall, yeah, the videos are basic. Doug, most often to me, feels like the Cliff Claven of car commentary, this guy seems to know a lot, likes to talk, and some of the things he says sounds dubious but is still entertaining and fun to listen to.

The two vehicles are identical, even available the same year (50th anniv.) Only difference is the badging. "Renegade" and "Wrangler Anniversary Edition." The Wrangler Renegade trim level continued to sport the fiberglass body kit for three more years, due to the popularity of the anniversary edition, which (obviosly) could not be offered after 1993. This was Chrysler Corporation (not yet owned by Marc Diambler) way of continuing to reap the benefits of the Wranghler Anniversary Editions popularity, after the anniversary had ended.

Its hilarious to watch someone who isn't old enough to have memory of vehicles designed for basic transportation nor intuitive knowledge of same. There is nuthin funner than a jeep but I prefer nothing newer than round gauges and metal dash.

I'm bugged by white letter tires in the first place, especially ones with white _outline_ letters like those. They all look gaudy. I always mount them on the wheels with the blackwall side facing out, which looks a lot better. Also, why would I want to advertise for a tire company? White letter tires originated on race cars, where it made sense, because they got sponsored by tire companies.

MaximRecoil I love the look of tires with white lettering. Would you strip the Jeep badges too? Why advertise for Jeep right?

Along similar lines, I had a coworker who had a same era Jeep "Islander". It was bright red with the orange and red graphics package and I have to admit I absolutely loved the color combo and the styling that the added fiberglass and trim parts added to the baseline "ho-hum" looks of the standard Wrangler. Jeep had several up-styled equipment packages and the "Islander" and the "Sahara" (especially the latter in the gold/bronze theme) were my favorites. I myself owned a 1997 XJ Sport (LOVED that little beast!) and now an old-school 2001 WJ Limited. 🚙

I've said it before and say it again, cars in the 90's were under rated. They have the crash worthiness of today's car without all the techy junk.

I'd welcome exposed screws in my car. Having just installed front and rear dashcams, it would have made it a hell of a lot easier to hide those cables. It was a nightmare!

I used to hate these. I had a Grand Cherokee, and a Cherokee (ZJ, XJ) and had only ridden in a Wrangler once. It was a soft top and during the winter time it felt like I was in a tent going 70 down the freeway. Loud inside, the plastic windows were fogged up. It was rough..... Then I found good deal on one and got it to flip. I only drove it once and I was in love. This one was a hard top. When I put it in reverse and looked over my shoulder, I was essentially looking at the ground right behind me thanks to the short little wheel base. I sold my other Jeeps and the YJ is now my favorite. There is just something about it that needs to be experienced to be fully understood. They're perfect

i've got a 97 wrangler and its really crazy to see how far the jeep had come from the YJ to the TJ. The interior went from barebones to comfortable, the dashboard, center console, and gearshift got a makeover, and a lot of the flaws of the 86-95 models were completely fixed by 96. I wouldn't like driving this, but I LOVE my 97.

I'll add that I think that the TJ was the last generation of "real" jeeps, i cringed at a lot of the praise you gave the 2018 jeep wrangler, because it just really isn't the same. now, jeeps are just comfortable just like any other SUV, but back in the TJ/YJ/CJ era, driving a jeep was more like an experience, it was just... different and fun.

the blank gauge is for the 4x4, when u switch it on it lights up...

I think you should revise your "importance" category because it's always either "they barely made any, so it holds no importance" or "they made a billion of these, so it holds no importance"

Dougster’s back!!! Hey , I gotta tell you it’s awesome that you did the renegade... that inline 6 is bulletproof, thank you champ😺

I knew a guy who bought one of these back then! He found it to be a more sensible, more comfortable alternative to the old 60s MG he had been driving for years prior. Different times!

that gauge isnt blank its the 4x4 light its pretty cool it shows the axles change from 2wd to 4wd haha yess! the one time i know more than ole doug !

Doug is the type of guy to got to Costco, take all the samples and eat them for “dinner”.

I don't know.... Almost all American cars and trucks with manual transmissions had foot parking brakes until the '90s. If mixing up the two pedals was a real issues foot parking brakes wouldn't have been so common for so long. In practice, I don't see how having the parking brake down there is a real issue. I own a Jeep and a truck now with this arrangement and have never come close to pushing the brake accidentally.

Doug should do a review of a Ford Explorer used in the movie.

Over the years, I have owned (in order) a CJ5, Jeep Eagle, CJ7 and a Jeep Cherokee. In many ways, it is difficult to say which one I enjoyed the most, although the CJ5 had a snow plow that I took off and put on the CJ7. Not only was it very practical but a lot of fun. Of course, the Eagle drove more like a car, which made it more practical for the family. The Cherokee performed much like the Eagle but offered some of the same fun the CJ's offered. Interesting enough as I watched this review, I hadn't realized the extreme simplicity of Jeep never bothered me. In fact, it offered a level of fun and assurance that I could service almost any part of the jeep easier. Today, whenever I see the older Jeeps, I miss having one. For me, the older simpler Jeeps was synonymous with the word fun.

awesome info. Very well done. More please.

The "blank gauge" actually lights up when you put it in 4WD. The more you know!

This was an enjoyable walk down memory lane for me. I bought a 1994 Wrangler new and drove it every day for 21 years. I will point out a few corrections (I know you love it when we do this, Doug).... The Renegade package included the fender flares, but the 4.0 liter would have come from the factory, not installed by the aftermarket guys who screwed on the flares, so $11,000 base price compared with $4,000 premium isn't a perfect comparison. The Renegade package is also something that the Jeep community mostly hates. The $11,000 base model would have had a 2.5 liter four-cylinder. Yes it has only 180 HP, but tons of torque. And the vehicle doesn't weigh very much. The left-most gauge is the 4WD indicator, not blank. But that's not at all obvious until you go into 4WD. Mine did have a prop to stop the rear gate from opening too far and hitting the brake light. I wonder if it was removed to make room for those silly fender flares on the Renegade. Pedals: you showed the parking brake in the "down" (parked) position. When driving it would be much higher and very unlikely to be confused with the clutch. True that all the heat comes out either on the windshield or your feet, but for ventilation, in addition to the old-school-cool side vent windows there's also a climate control lever that opens up a huge vent by the passenger's right calf, and it is wonderful. I really miss having basic, effective ventilation controls on contemporary vehicles. Entering the back seat: the passenger side front seat folds WAY forward making it much easier and quicker to enter the back seen from that side. That annoying buzzer - I found it astonishingly easy to remove the buzzing thing - was just a little plastic box hanging from a wire. It lasted about a week in mine before I figured that out. Keep up the reviews, Doug!

Passenger side has seat release latch 😆

Wow they have definitely made some changes from 93 to my 95!! I never knew how much little things were missing or altered!! I’ve always wanted a Renegade!! When I got mine 10 years ago it had original 66,000. But to only have 25,000 for 93! That’s awesome!!
