    Why would u want to buy something that ugly? If you want something with a wheelbase like a Wrangler then just get a Wrangler because they're actually a decent looking vehicle

    plus an extra row of seats for PASSANGERS and just an overall better looking truck IMO that better suits my needs. Do you have a problem with my opinion?
