I am interested in feedback from people who use their TJ as a daily driver. Specifically, I am interested in the following:

1. Do you ever get frustrated with lack of space?
2. Do you have another vehicle for non-Jeep-optimal situations?
3. Have you ever thought:

"I should have bought the Cherokee/Grand Cherokee/Liberty/etc..."

Thanks!

1. yep
2. yep
3. nope
The lack of space IS limiting, but I wouldn't trade the trail ability for anything.

That wasn't a choice!
I'd have chosen that one!

[Shorty]

1) No, bacause I have #2.
2) Yes, and it makes the situation perfect!
3) No, but I think nothing less of Cherokee's. I would definitly build/wheel one!

1. not really, take the top down and you can fit almost anything
2. sometimes I use my sister's corolla on road trips (gas is expensive nowadays!)
3. not for one nanosecond

1. Do you ever get frustrated with lack of space?

haven't yet, and we even had 5 people riding in it Sunday! (but, of course, i wasn't crammed into the back seat)

2. Do you have another vehicle for non-Jeep-optimal situations?

yes, we have a ford supercrew pickup for road trips, hauling stuff etc


3. Have you ever thought: "I should have bought the Cherokee/Grand Cherokee/Liberty/etc..."

no, but i've thought maybe i should have bought the jeep instead of the pickup rather than the jeep and the pickup

Its funny to see this thread because i am getting irritated with driving my jeep back and forth to work....... And i am only doing it to put some miles on it....

1. No
2. yes
3. Hell no

My frustrations with driving my jeep have to do with the currie antirock, even on its tightest setting, and the 6 speed. I love manual trannies, but i am in 6th gear at 45, and shifting ALL the time... Its just not as fast as my other truck... and frustrates me in the city. I have had a few issues with the lack of the factory sway bar, where the road tilted drastically the same time i had to move around something, and it go squirly.........

If I had the stock sway bar with disconnects i think I would be alot happier.....

BUT I have this set up as an offroad machine.... not a commuter...... So I should not *****....

[CJsPerson]

It’s my daily driver and

1. Not yet.

2. 06 Dodge minivan

3. Nope

1. No on the lack of space, it is usually the girl and I anyways, so we have plenty of room.
2. The girls Mazda 6 if we need to take it for longer trips and she insists on driving.
3. No to anything else...but like FourbyFour, wish I would have bought the Rubicon and got the 44's. I was young and wanted a Jeep, boy was I stupid.

[cpleasant]

1) Take out the back seat, youll be supprised by how mu space is cleared up.

2) no

3) Unless you haul cargo or have a familty, a TJ does have a decent amount of space.
