Alright, I've been looking for a daily driver for a while... And I can't make up my mind... I've looked at everything from luxury cars to Wranglers... And I'm just completely baffled on this one... Two years ago, when I started workin here at EVS I traded my Wrangler in for a Malibu (bad move hated the malibu) I then sold the Wrangler to a guy in West Bend... Earlier today I was cruisin AutoTrader, and what do I come across... What looks like my old Wrangler (I could tell from the shiny radiator that I put in before I traded it...) When I traded it in it had 82k on it, now it has 96k... He replaced the top (it needed it, but it's now black not tan), and put bigger tires on it and chrome wheels... I'm trying to figure out if I want to buy it back or not... Some opinions would be nice... It's an EXTREMELY CLEAN (at least it was, I'm gunna see it for the first time in 2 years tomorrow) '98 Wrangler 2.5L 4Cyl 5-Speed, has half doors and a soft top, not many options, but... It's a Wrangler it's supposed to be simple... Opinions are great... And yes, I did truely enjoy driving this vehicle... I traded it for a stupid reason...

EDIT: I know it's my old one because I called him on it and checked the last 6 digits of the VIN #.

4 cyl in a jeep? That's like buying a Mustang with a 6. Ooops nevermind... ;)

If you liked it, and the price is right, get it.

Heck I drive a wagon and I love it :goof
Drive what makes you happy

agree with dave and rocket, more with dave though, i'd just got with a decent car that gets good mileage. i'm such a big fan of creature comforts now from my GTP and my other car before then.

Just buy the wrangler back because then you'll stop bitching and looking for a new car. :goof You liked it didn't you? I guess it was ok when I drove it for like 2 weeks but i'd rather have the 4L auto with power options...just make sure it's what you really want.

Yeah, I have this problem with buying base model vehicles... Saves me money though... :durr

Power options?? Ummm I think the only available options on a Wrangler X (4.0L I6) are Automatic, Fog Lamps, Cruise, Hardtop, Full Doors...
