What makes a Jeep so special to drive is the fun you have with it. From mods, wheeling, taking the top off, and enjoying a summer day. A TJ will not beat a daily commuter on cost savings, but me and anyone who likes to enjoy life gives up those cost benefits for an exciting vehicle experience. After all we spend a lot of our life in vehicles, would rather be in my TJ than a Prius.

I daily drove my 2001 TJ for a little over 5 years. I bought it with 80,000 miles, and it now has 143,500. It's a 4.0 liter, 5 speed manual. Super great visibility, easy to park and maneuver around. Most reliable vehicle I've ever owned. It's never left me stranded anywhere. It's truly a shame that Chrysler killed off the 4.0 inline six...

I have been driving mine for off road, trails, rural roads, suburban driving, and urban driving since 1996. I never thought I would have her this long. But as the new vehicles keep coming out, my aging TJ looks better and better every year. I would actually be taking a huge step backwards if I were to get something modern.

I got mine in 1996 as a 1997. It is by far the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. What it lacks in fuel economy, it more than makes up for it in supernatural reliability. It is more economical than a new fuel economy vehicle with a payment. I do not see how purchasing a vehicle that makes 39 to 42 miles to the gallon is economical if you have to pay a very expensive payment. My fuel usage is far under a payment.

Robert Lane how many miles does your ti has?? I’m thinking to purchase a 2003 tj but It has already 215k miles would it be worth it to buy!?

I live in New York City and daily drive a 05 TJ Rubi, hands down the best city vehicle. Parking is so easy with the short wheelbase and tight turning radius (no driveway, I street park). With steel bumpers you don’t need to worry about someone bumping your car and damaging it lol. Don’t need to worry about horrible road conditions & potholes. Sitting in traffic I’m comfortable even with a manual - so easy to drive. I think a lot of people in the city have realized this, I see TJs EVERYWHERE. Just make sure you have a hardtop lol

I went from a 2004 Ford Ranger to a 2005 TJ. Such an upgrade, I do drive on the highway half an hour to work one way and it’s not too bad, I’ve had to get used to it but it don’t really notice it anymore. I love it!!

I have also use my tj daily for almost 7 years now and love it. Got a hard top and full doors second hand, best purchases for the beast by far.

I daily an '04 WJ with a 4.0 in line 6 automatic and I absolutely love it, it does what I need. She has a 2in lift and 255/70 Toyo open country 2 AT tires and it definitely has a race truck feel to it, especially with loud exhaust. I get about 17mpg in town and about 21mpg highway. I will love it forever but I do want to try out TJ or JK style jeep for additional fun.

I have a 2002 Tj Jeep Wrangler Sport 4.0 liter engine, never had a problem with it. Love it.

My commute is an hour ten and i always have a great time, driving a tj is like an adventure

I've daily driven 2 TJs and a CJ. I love it! Will gladly keep doing it too.

I daily a 2005 4 cyl manual and I agree with everything you said in this video. With the soft top, it can definitely get loud, which can make conversations hard. Driving solo, there isn't a big issue with that though. On the highway, I can generally keep up with traffic going 65-75 but there won't be any passing going on. It can definitely get you from point A to point B. The interior is very basic. I think the seats are definitely not bad or uncomfortable but they're not the best either (but that may have to do with me being 6'2"). With that said, I absolutely love it and wouldn't trade it for anything. Well, maybe an LJ or a rubi... Your vids have helped me out a lot, man. I appreciate the content and look forward to more in the future. Much love from Florida, stay warm, hahaha.

Great video as always, i don't have to daily mine because luckily my company provides me a vehicle and gas card, but i did daily a TJ and a JK (both manuals) in the past and they were both great. Especially in the Winter. I honestly wish i could take my Jeep to work sometimes, jealous that you get to drive your every day! Mine sits for weeks sometimes other than a trip to Dairy Queen and back every once in a while! And of course back and forth to various offroad parks. Can't wait to take my new TJ Rubicon out for the first time!

My tj is my daily driver , I do miss the mpg vs my Civic but I love my driving my Jeep everyday :)

Ive daily drove an XJ for the last few years. They do decent, fit a lot of stuff. Picking up my first TJ this Saturday. Will be daily driving that as well.

Enjoyed this video. I love driving my TJ. I’ll take it to work simply for the overall experience when summer hits. Right now I’m I bounce around town and take an old G35 to work. TJs hardtop has been hung in the garage and hasn’t come down since. Ride to live!

I still daily my YJ. It's about the driving experience and having fun. Plus keeping miles off my truck is a plus too

I Always wanted a jeep and live in CA where gas is ridiculous expensive. Sold my 07 Prius and was lucky enough to find an 02 TJ 4 litre manual straight line with 68000 miles. With all the mods it looks great and is a blast to drive. Gas mileage at about 15 mpg but worth every penny. Not missing the Prius at all.

I am a single dad of 1 and I daily drive a lifted 1999 TJ. I have the rear seats and all hardware removed and just use it as a 2 seater. Both my daughter and myself love my jeep. It's a great family car lol

I daily a TJ as my first real car and I love it all the time, I’m fixing it up and that makes it even better.

Family of 4 here. My two kids, 4 and 1, love it. I got a bike rack on the spare tire that can also carry a stroller. Plenty of room for a diaper bag behind the back seat. I also tow it behind my 40ft motorcoach for family vacations. That is another special feature that not many vehicles can support, 4 down towing. 2001 tj sport 4.0.

Thanks bro! Puting an intake and exhaust will help your mpg but you have an LJ so your a bit bigger and heavier than the TJ

Had one for 6 years and had 2 car seats in the back for 4 and 1 year olds. I had a manual and never had any issues. Even did a couple of 6 hour one way trips to Orlando. Yes it’s fine for a daily driver and family car.

Daily drove a Cherokee from 1996-1999. Daily drove my TJ from 1999 when I bought it new until 2016 when my rear diff blew. Both great daily drivers. Still own the TJ and am going to get it going again this summer.

TJs are my favorite Jeep Wrangler variant. I start driving next year and I really want one.

Bought my 2000 TJ brand new almost 200k miles on it now. Daily driver for 21 years now. 5 speed manual factory transmission and clutch. Love it.

With 35" wheels and and a 3.5" lift, the gas mileage can fall to 14 mpg combined. A stock TJ is going to have better gas mileage. However, MANY cars only take premium gas. If you factor in the price difference between 87 and 93, your gas costs can be similar.

I drive a 06 jeep tj with 4 inch lift and 35's its awesome 13 yrs old and drives like a champ!! I'm in Hawaii and love the soft top noise don't bother me a bit just adds character, just installed a CB with dual 8 foot antennas on the rear, I love my jeep best vehicle I ever owned especially driving with the top down and doors off trailing past waterfalls.

Long Commutes: get a quiet muffler as that helps...noisy 4.0L sixes are typically for Millennials only, especially of the G.I. variety or even the Zoomer gen. Also, get a SYE and a double cardan driveshaft = less vibes. Also, good AT tires like BFG KO2's, and not mudders, make for a good daily driver and can still go off pavement w/o issues. Been daily driving a '03 Jeep TJ 4.0L 5-speed in Alaska (plus 1 rd. trip Alcan trip to Lower48) since new!

Yes, I daily my ‘98 TJ Hardtop. Almost stock. Banks Power Pack; Ram Air Intake, High Flow Monster Exhaust, Bigger Exhaust Manifold, a Programmer, and I add a High Flow Catalytic Converter. Sounds really good. Mine came from the factory with the 30” wheel and tire group. No lift, yet. garage is too short.

Slap some 80's music in it, KC lights, boom i couldn't think of a better truck to drive every day for me also i love the feeling of the road on my motorcycle, i cant wait to feel a summer day with no doors!!!

One thing is good to mention. I have a 98 Wrangler TJ, I can pull it behind my 30'-0' Motor home, I couldn't do that with a 4 door and go where I like to go. And its a load of fun like Tyler said.

I daily drove a 2000 TJ SE with the four cylinder for three years and a 20001 Sport with a six cylinder for seven years. Both stick. They were great. I drove a lot for my job as a newspaper photographer. Highway, city, blizzards, nothing beat driving my TJ's.

Helpful video. The footage of your Jeep in the snow was cool to see, even though I live in SoCal lol

I love driving my TJ every day!

Excellent post! I have a lifted 01' TJ daily. I have 30 mile commute to work and love every inch of the ride. It's a 2.5L manual and VERY reliable/bulletproof. Yes, it's slow and bouncy, but it's all part of the Jeep experience. I wanted a motorcycle, but health reasons say no, so I bought the TJ as a "toy", but can't leave it at home. I drive it more than my newer Ram. I go doorless/topless from May through October. Then, snow season is just as fun!!

I love my jeep, im actually in the process of fixing it up. I wouldnt surgest it for a 1st vehicle, especially if you have snow in your area. The short base at times could be quite difficult and with in experienced driver they would most likely freak out and get the result that no one wants. With that said, i would buy it again and the jeep will be with me and my family forever

I have a 2006 TJ 4.0L (same color) and I daily drive it without any issues! Just did 170 miles on it yesterday and it was fine other than being on the turnpike on a windy day, which kinda sucked having a soft top! It's rare I'm on the turnpike or Interstate, so other than that, it's fine for daily commutes!

I love my 2000 TJ as I'm nice and high up so great visibility and in cold TJ heaters are the best. Highway though I stay away as soft top it's like a wind tunnel so do mostly local street driving. Took rear seat out so lots of space for golf clubs and fishing gear. Good review Kyle.
