Used Jeep Buyers Shock!

Used Jeeps too expensive? Overpriced? Out of Range? Out of sight?

The answers are...yes..yes..yes..and yes!

With the Wrangler leading the pack on ridiculous pricing in the new and used markets it's no wonder that there is so much "Buyer's Shock".

So what's so special about Jeeps and the Jeep Wrangler especially? Wranglers are relatively uncomfortable, rough riding, cramped for space and bad on gas mileage. With those credentials who would want to waste their time and a boat load of money on these things?

The overused expression "It's a Jeep thing...you wouldn't understand!" does sum most of it up in a nutshell.  However, many folks really WANT to understand this phenomenon, because these Jeep guys and gals riding around with smiles on their collective faces can't help but raise curiosity among the uninitiated.

Sure, a lot of us have envisioned ourselves like John Wayne in the movie "Hatari" racing through the wilds of Africa in a beat up Jeep CJ6, or running the Baja 1000 full bore in a tricked out Wrangler racer. However, most Jeep owners use their rigs as everyday drivers and take them off roading, camping, hunting, fishing or exploring only occasionally.

The real draw to most of us Jeep owners is in the knowing that we have a rare type of vehicle (with a long heroic history) which can pull all sorts of duty from daily driver mild to off road warrior extreme whenever we are so inclined.

THAT is what puts a smile on our faces whenever we strap-in to our favorite rigs headed for the convenience store...or the wide open desert trails.

Is it worth the expensive price to drive this true American icon? Well, that's a question only you can answer for yourself.

As for me and millions of other enthusiasts throughout the world...we think it's definitely worth it!
