I agree, there is now this divide between Jeep owners, this new generation see Jeep differently. The problem I have with this is that over time the jeep brand will start making vehicles for everyone but true jeep people, and the only thing left will be the wrangler JL which is way overpriced in my opinion. They need a mid priced solid axle jeep again, but they wont go that route because the "new "buyers dont care or want that.

I worked for Jeep Corporation may years ago. In the early 1980's, Jeep realized that in order to increase sales they had to make the vehicle appeal to women. This was the advent of padded dashes, carpet, power windows, etc. For the first time the Jeep became more "car-like" instead of being primarily a utilitarian vehicle. Regarding the JK, considering all the creature comforts it offers, it still retains a level of off-road performance that is at the top of the list. Pretty good all-around model I'd say.

Those webbed pockets on the door are perfect, and server the purpose for which they were designed - they hold the wiring harness once you unclip them so they don't drag around when you take the doors off.

I own a 2010 with the 3.8, it doesn't burn any oil and I Superchip did, great overall engine and 118000 Miles, still doesn't use any oil, very reliable motor

I still think it's funny how people always pull out the "the older ones are better" argument with basically any newer vehicle. Sure, the older Jeeps are cool, but the JK and JL are much more comfortable, spacious and convenient to daily drive compared to the older models. Don't get me wrong, I'd love an old CJ or even a TJ to mess around in, but to drive everyday to work, I'll stick with my JK.

Great job, Tommy. Your videos are always good, yet always improving. Thanks for the level of effort.

Hey Tommy, you can move the seats more than what you showed. It's called Tip n' Slide or something like that. Works on both seats (at least on my 2018 2 door JK Sport S), you basically move the back forward like you did, but then if you keep pushing the top of the seat forward towards the dash the seat will tilt from the base. This makes the access to the back much more easy.

Nice review Tommy. Glad I waited for the JLU, though. Less quirks (except auto start/stop). We shall see how it holds up over time.

Well done Tommy. I love my Jeep and it's a 2016. All my older Jeeps got love too.

Love your video Tommy I have a 2013 Rubicon two door. And I really like it a lot. I heard all the complaints before I bought it. Doesn’t matter it’s cool!! And yes it’s the six speed manual transmission. And loaded with almost every option . When you drive the thing. It makes you feel like you can go or do anything.

Back in the late 70’s I had a CJ7 with a 258 slant 6, manual, high arch springs, Monroe Magnum shocks and “Ground Hog” tires. Had a lot of fun and misadventures in the machine. There may have been some chemical influences involved in those adventures. 🤪

The 258 was an AMC motor: a traditional American inline six with 7 main bearings & NOT a slant\6 as that used four large 426 HEMI main bearings...that's the Mopar "Leaning Tower of Power" for you! Those 2 ChryCo. motors were designed by the same guy (Willem Weertman). The 258 was eventually replaced by the famous AMC Jeep 4.0L inline six in late 1986 and survived till 2006 when the last real Jeeps were made.

Great video! Yours truly, Toyota Guy!

That view at 4:20. That's a really good looking jeep. Front bumper complements the factory fenders, good color , perfect lift/tire combo.. very cool.

Mine is almost exactly like this one. Automatic Trans and a soft top on mine. I love it and with the top down and half doors crusin' around I get compliments all the time, it looks and feels great while summer driving. A lift and bigger tires in the snow means you can wheel with confidence post blizzard while all the sedans are stuck in drifts. BTW my back seats have been folded for three years with no issue.

Cold Steel Recon 1 in the side slot that you mention can barely hold a pencil. Doesn’t move locks in perfect. I originally had my backseat folded up in order for a large trunk with gear. However wanted to figure out a way to keep the seat and not loose the gear. Found a way and you won’t believe what all I can fit in the trunk with seat up if done right. I think it’s even more than before :). You’ve gotta make your gear work for your Jeep and think outside the box a little. I need to do a walk around video sometime that might help some people.

Great video. I recently traded a 2001 two door for a 2106 Willys Wheeler two door. I was very skeptical of the newer model. It felt too fragile and fancy to take off road. While its nice enough as a daily driver in terms of comfort, its a rather boring ride. But, when I get it on the trail, wow, it comes to life. I find it way more capable than my older Jeep and its still stock. I know there are those who complain about various features ( for me it's the truly awful stereo interface), lack of storage, the need for expensive mods, etc. Yes those things are true, however that is also the fun of a Jeep. They are for people who want to make them their own and I think Jeep buyers know that going in. For me, I enjoy figuring out how to make it work for me ( and my budget) and I think most Jeepers do. Yeah they can be mall crawlers, but who cares. Its what you chose to do with it.

I’ve got the 2016 75 anniversary edition in green and we love it!! My first Jeep

I've had my 2013 jeep wrangler sport for 3 months now and I love it. I'm doing some upgrades to it as funds are available. It has the V6 6speed with the 2 door and soft top. Love it. My dad had a 77 Jeep Renegade with the 4speed and 304 V8 . Love it and had a ball in it.

I just bought a 2017 JKU to replace my 1999 TJ (four banger) and I gotta say i feel like a sell out, the ride is so plush. You cant compare the two jeeps. The TJ has street cred and soul. The JK feels like a NPC mall crawler for the masses. Having said that, Im selling the TJ since the JK is easyer to live with everyday, driving/room for kids/cargo ETC.

Great Video and an awesome reminder as to why I did not go back to a Jeep last year.

I believe they made a video about them when they installed them, you just gotta search for it on their channel(s).

The JK is a real Jeep. Whoever says it's not is just a hipster. I like the JK more than the JL other than how it looks.

Fireblade1000cc absolutely, the JK will go down as a classic in due time, they’re just outstanding offroad , a great platform and better than its predecessors . Anyone who says different just isn’t being honest and haven’t spent enough time in the offroad scene. The JL will be better than the JK but the difference won’t be as big as going from the TJ to JK was.

Fireblade1000cc yeah they will be great I’m sure and the diesel option when it’s available will make them sell like hot cakes, I’ll be excited to see how the diesels do but I’ll keep my jk for quite awhile until the JL diesels come down on price, probably another decade lol

@@jrexplores5488 yeah I think the diesel is going to pull a ton of people towards buying a JL. That's probably the only reason I'd consider buying one. It's too bad the JK never had a diesel.

I think the JK is better looking than the JL. I don't like the turn signals on the fenders and I don't like them on the TJ either.

Nice job Tommy. I sure love my JK as well.

I've owned my 2011 JKU for 8 years, it has 190k miles, spun a bearing in the 3.8. In the process of putting a new engine and transmission in it, can't wait to finish, I miss driving it. My wife has an 03 TJ with the in-line 6, it only has 120k miles, I love that thing too. Jeeps are just fun

“It has a lift and bigger tires and a metal bumper!” You really know what you’re talking about. Sounds like you read the brochure and that’s it

Cmon Tommy, everyone knows that's called the "Chicken handle".

Tommy makes the best videos on this channel. Even if you don't care for what they're about, you can always appreciate his knowledge and presentation.

Great review, Tommy! I'd buy this JK for the "cool factor" which I give it a 10+

I traded my TJ for a JK in 2012 and now traded my JK for a JL 2019 now.

I'm 32. I had a used TJ for 5 years, when the engine went in my TJ I got a JK. I upgraded IT to the JL because I wanted an Unlimited. My 3 big dogs just weren't fitting in my 2 door JK comfortably especially when I had other shit and I wasn't going buy used again after my TJs engine went too soon, i thought. Yes it is definitely more comfortable than my TJ and similar to my JK but better. I went from the Sport to the Rubicon so I do have a lot more options. I dont know if its directly because I got older but being older did allow me to learn what I wanted in my recent purchase compared to what I had before. Yes I do also have more money to spend now as well so that helps. That said, that TJ was just a steel box with wheels lol.

Nice video but you pretty much made the case for not buying the JK for me. I've had a CJ7, YJ Sahara, 2 ZJs, and now a TJ Sport. Love all Jeeps but your pointing out the flaws in the JK makes me glad I have a TJ. Heart of a minivan, LOL!! And FWIW, IMO nothing beats the old 4.0 inline 6. High torque at low rpms, and you can beat it like a Timex!! Who cares about gas mileage in a Jeep. Still love all Jeeps, well maybe most, but the old-school ones are the best to me. Yours looks nice!! Enjoy.

You are correct about the wave. I always wave and if it is not returned just chalk it up to their ignorance. Most of the non wavers are driving the two door models. When you leave the blacktop you should follow the old Boy Scout saying-leave nothing but footprints (in this case, tire tracks), take nothing but photographs.

You clearly don’t know much about the power plant choices the JK used. There’s a reason the underpowered 4.0l was retired and it wasn’t to replace it with a crappier engine. The only good thing the 4.0 has in its corner is it is pretty damn reliable and that’s reallly it. The 4.0 would have been terrible in the JK

Great review mine is a 2015 rag top 6 speed 2 inch lift 33s 12000 lb winch

I hated my 2008 JK. I'm much happier with my '05 TJ.

I have a 2 door jk manual and my console squeaks like your mama’s mattress and the gas mileage makes me think I’m towing a semi behind me

The case for freedom panels is meant to be strapped to back of rear seat. Actually saves room for storage in back.

The power mirrors control on the dash is clever considering the doors come off or you may have a soft top. That way you ca still adjust the mirrors when you go topless
