If they do a drop, or removable top, it'll end 15+ years of Jeep
Wrangler ownership at my place!
Lemmie see... I can have much of the running gear, thoughtul
engineering, and dependability of my Tacoma, in a Wrangler like body?
Tough choice, NOT! I'm used to Jeeps that take 35-45k to sort out the
manufacturing defects (with aftermarket replacements) before they're
right.
Besides, one of the things I've always liked about Wrangers (other
than the top), the 4.0 I6 engine (durable and extremely easy to
service), ends in 2006, to be replaced with the 3.7L V6 from the
Liberty.
I also hope the aftermarket gets on the FJ like they have the Wrangler
and Tacoma.
