This is hilarious. I had a friend who had a Dodge Neon for years - he was so proud the day the ditched it and traded it in for a 'Jeep'. Only problem: he bought a Jeep Patriot. Pretty sure that's just a glorified next-gen Neon. I decided to keep that to myself, lol.It's the same car. Literally the same car.
That is the other reason I steered my wife to the Renegade. Bronco sports were going for $5K over sticker. The Trailhowk Renegade was a very affordable car and it rated better in off road tests than the RAV 4 or the Subaru.my mom constantly asks for my recommendations on certain things to buy. Then she goes "oh, that's too expensive." Then buys an even more expensive option. Like the last new car. She wanted an CUV to replace their RAV4. I give her options around a $40k price point, including an offer sheet for a loaded Q5 @ $42k that she says is too expensive. She gets a $50k Volvo.
I was able to steer my wife away from the Tacoma option by saying "convertible truck."
Worst vehicle ever. I dated a girl that had one of those, and it was the worse ride ever. After about 20 miles you need a new kidney.Suzuki Samurai
My wife has one and it's not too bad. Better than the CRV she had before it IMHO. But it is a blah blah nothing interesting about it boring car,You can't let your Pops drive this vehicle. It's not a proper way for a grown man to get around.
I guess its funny how we can remember the Samurai differently. I pretty much only rode in one when my friends and I did Drink and Sink Sundays off roading trips. Everyone else had Jeeps. I had a Subaru wagon (complete with low range) . The Samurai was so freaking narrow it could pick its lines through just about everything. And squeeze between the closest trees. It was really great off road.Worst vehicle ever. I dated a girl that had one of those, and it was the worse ride ever. After about 20 miles you need a new kidney.
I drove one for 18 years. Best vehicle I’ve ever owned.Worst vehicle ever. I dated a girl that had one of those, and it was the worse ride ever. After about 20 miles you need a new kidney.
Nope. Out of close to 900 vehicles sold last year at my wife’s dealership, there were two sold.He wants something short and actually 4x4 so he can use it for hunting on ranch/orchards in far northern CA.
They're similar cost, almost identical in size externally, and I believe the Wrangler has better interior size. Any reason why he should look at the Renegade outside of gas mileage?
It really doesn't matter. The whole idea floated a few posts earlier that you won't be able to get parts for something because it doesn't sell in high volume is wrong.Nope. Out of close to 900 vehicles sold last year at my wife’s dealership, there were two sold.

I think that's partially why I see so many used gladiators out there. People buy them not realizing what they're getting themselves intoPushing someone to get a vehicle they don’t want will seldom end well. Many have said it. Wranglers and Gladiators are great, if you’re the kind of person that likes them. If you’re not one of those, you’ll likely hate it.
