    Sorry I missed this on Friday.

    I wanted a midsize pickup so I bought the most reliable one I could find. It wasn’t a jeep.

    A well set up jeep with a solid front axle has awesome articulation . I've seen some impressive #'s on articulation ramps . My old 68 M38A1 would easily score a 1200 RTI

    How about a Jeep Wrangler that has a 900hp 427 LSX with a 2.9 L Whipple supercharger that destroys 40" tires

    11 years I have owned and daily drove the most odd ball Jeep recently made. The Liberty CRD. There were not many made. Only two model years of it to test American buys acceptance of diesel engines. I have to say it was a good little Jeep but not with out problems. Several times I had to replace the alternator AOD pulley, U joints, ball joints, mend broken abs wires. The worst is was the transmission needed replaced at 97k. Chrysler is know for that bs. Since it was getting older I decided to save up for something new and better known for being dependable long term. Parts for the CRD and mechanics to work on it are going scarce. I did like the thing and it really could go off road despite what some think. But it was time to move on

    Now I'm in a 2020 Tacoma

    I will say that the Levi's interior in my '75.5 Cherokee Chief was nice... it didn't fail like the rest of the Jeep did! LOL
