This is my first 4wd vehicle, it will be a new experience for me especially after driving a 2wd Ford Ranger.
I never have noticed the flat hood on the '05 Renegades until after I purchased this one. Was '05 the only year that was offered?
05 and 06! renegades and one other model.. rocky mtn edition maybe?
Correctamundo! 05/06 Renegades and Rocky Mtn Edition. I had an 05 Renne in Dark Khaki, it was my first Jeep and I absolutely loved it. Probably got me hooked on Jeeps, (and mud) for life. Those flat hoods totally changed my opinion of the Liberty, they just look so much more "Jeep" to me. Don't get me wrong, I love my 08 Sport, especially the extra compartments and space on the inside, but whenever I see an 05 or 06 Renne I think back to that first Jeep and grin like a fool.
I kinda feel bad for the guy who got my 05 after I turned in the lease, my buddies and I beat the hell out of that thing in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. We even took it on the ski trails up at Mt. Bohemia.. I hit some soft snow and buried the front end past the hood

None of their trucks could get even close to where I was, so we had to use a SnoCat to pull me out.

It was awesome.
