And the person writing it most likely has no clue. I mean take this site for example, we are all....well most are happy with there choice in jeeps. I haven't had any major problems (knock on wood) with mine yet and it has done and gone placed I would have never said it would.

I live in England, and travel throughout Europe and Scandinavia as well as the US, and I pick up 4x4 mags in every country I've been in (although I couldn't even guess at the content of the Hungarian one, so I just looked at the pictures :) ) and JP is probably one of the worst 4x4 mags I've seen (although I don't know about the Hungarian one). When you consider how many really good 4x4 mags there are in the States, I'm surprised anyone bothers with it. I have a personal fondness for 4WD &SUV - so much so that I subscribed to it, and I love the Overland Journal. Feel free to mock me :D

The M715 is in that list? Are you kiddin me?

Full story here: http://www.jpmagazine.com/featuredvehic ... index.html

Quote:
Liberty KJ
With a CRD diesel option for a while, a true two-speed T-case with a proper low range available, and a somewhat-strong IFS front suspension, the component list of the Liberty isn't exactly our biggest gripe with the vehicle. It's the way Jeep marketed it to the media and public that got our goat. It was introduced during its '01 debut as an entry-level, college kid-type commuter to fill a demographic left void by the XJ, WJ, and TJ models available at that time. It wasn't touted as a true off-road machine because, let's face it, it's not. With a suspension design not easy to lift, axles not easy to beef and upgrade, and wheelwells not able to swallow much of a tire, it seemed poised for a life shuttling its owners to ski resorts and beach parties. Jeep had told us that they were not killing the Cherokee at the Liberty media intro, but then changed its mind a few months later. And nearly as soon as the XJ's carcass was cold, a Trail Rated badge was slapped on the Liberty's fenders and we were led to believe it was Rubicon-ready off the dealership floor.

Agreed above and with all, I can say that I take it out at least two to three times a week for two years now (some are merely to play in the snow or grab a smoke and see the view), been to RC.... and drive it long distances. It has yet to fail me! (Knocking as we speak) :wink:
