I was the exact same way until I test drove one. I'll be the first person to say it's not the best looking car on the road, it's far from it, but it is a great little car. I get 28 mpg average out of a 1.6 turbo in awd trim, and it's extremely fun to drive. It fits just about anywhere I want to park it and is extremely practical. It came fully loaded with nav, heated leather seats, sunroof, etc for less than anyone else can compete with. Would I buy it as my only car? Eh probably not, but I have a fun car that I take out on nice days. I test drove a butt load of other cars before settling on this one, because it was just that fun to drive. It's a very popular car in Europe and has outsold Nissan expected sales figures.
It's clearly not a car for everyone, but it's way less boring than some for focus or scion. |

All relative. For the price the features, utility, reliability, and fuel economy of the juke cannot be beat. I tried to rationalize it every which way, it's just a damn practical car. haha But whatever lol
The vette is stock (engine-wise) for now, looking to put a cam or blower on it in the spring. Leaning toward cam, but I'll probably change my mind about 10 times over the winter. That is, if I don't fall in love with the c7. lol |

I don't have a pic of it with the stock wheels. I put those on one side just to see how it would look and took them off.

Luxury mudding, do you hold your pinky up and drink a finely aged merlot? Or are you more of a pinot type of guy?
Never owned a 8 cylinder jeep, just the 4.slows, bulletproof.

Of course, thats why i wanted an automatic.
My family has had a few 4.0's, and I drove a 4.0 cherokee last winter. Supposedly these V8's are just as reliable as long as they're maintained properly. Motor is perfect and the trans is pretty good. I do have some diff/t case whine though. Can't complain too much, got it for $850. the quadradrive should be pretty awesome in the snow, hopefully a fluid change helps with the noise. |
