I love Jeeps, I have owned a variety of them, I love to work on them, and I love playing with them. Currently own. I have worked in a professional capacity working on Jeep vehicles for years.
That being said, they are terrible vehicles. They are expensive to maintain, they shit out on you constantly, they are poorly designed, and are all around a bad option for basic people. I once saw an old Vine of someone throwing a way of hundreds at their old XJ and my first thought was "lol that's not enough"
@Miss Tommie Jayne Wasserberg recently stated he had purchased a Jeep. I would like to speculate on this, and eventually laugh at whatever shitbox he purchased. There are a variety of scenarios here, and they all end in hilarity for us.
1. The Old Jeep : Old Jeeps are awesome. If you have the knowledge, or the money to maintain them. They will break. They will leak, and they will FUCK you over. Unless you have a good mechanical knowledge, or the money to pay for it, you are going to get fucked over. This is the more likely scenario, as Tom is a poor, and can likely only afford the shitbox tier of Jeeps.
-old XJs (no hate, I have one, but LORD does it need work constantly)
-old TJ, YJ, (maybe but they are more expensive, but boomers love them because they look cool) These also suffer from all the XJ problems, and more because people try to wheel them too hard. (owner as well)
-ZJ unlikely, too much power (V
for little Tom, and too expensive of gas for a poor of his caliber (drove one for work at my shop)
-JK older, but still newer Wrangler platform (doubtful, he can't afford it or it's gas, upkeep.) (owned, hated it)
2. The New Jeep: Fiat recently purchased Jeep and everything but the JL, JT is garbage, and most will argue the newer wrangler and gladiator platforms kinda suck. Italians can't 4x4 sadly. Tom likely could never afford anything like this, if he did buy one we are in for some laughs. Maintenance is pricy on the newer ones and they are not as easy to work on as older platforms. No way he can turn a wrench. (drove a lot at my shop, super nice but not for me.)
Sorry for my Jeep sperg but I really am curious about this development.
