Up for review this week is the 2008 Jeep Wrangler Sahara two door 4x4 -- now, that is a mouthful.   This will be one tough vehicle for me to review -- I know nothing about Jeeps, and admitting that is half the battle.  I know a little about the Jeep brand and I can review a Grand Cherokee (and have) because it is similar to other SUVs on the road, but a Wrangler is an entirely different animal. More...

[accordingly]

I like the way the imbedded ad makes the post essentially unreadable.

What resolution are you running?

I like the way the imbedded ad makes the post essentially unreadable.

Yeah, me too. All the other ones are fine, though. 

EDIT: Oops, I lied. All the other ones are screwed up too. Don't know if it's new, or if maybe I just noticed now.

I'm viewing at 1024 x 768.

Looks OK to me, although I'm running at 1920 x 1200.

Here is a pic:

I think they mean the annoying embedded ads that show up randomly in the middle of posts on the forum. I hate those stupid floating ads as well - you know, the ones that you can't find the close button for? Arrgh   

[wing]

Oh!  That would explain it! 

[HeliDriver]

No, I mean that both the ad and the picture squeeze the text into a tiny column on the far left side.

The text looks like this:

If the words are longer (like the last two), then the last letters get cut off by the picture.

Yep, me too 

Like I can load new software at work, pfft!      Wasn't Microsoft supposed to take over the world or something?

Looks like the Jeep Wrangler Sahara is raising alot of HOT COMMENTS..................from ad_busters

C'mon wing, at least get the Jeep a little bit dirty.  Surely there are some 'unassumed roads' or road allowances just outside Ottawa that will allow you to at least engage the 'go-go stick' (4WD lever)?

I took one of these out back in March and was sufficiently impressed with it.   I was expecting horrid wind noise, rattles, air-leaks, rough ride and was pleasantly surprised how road-friendly it was.  The 6-speed manual was actually pretty fun to drive.  What drove me away was the insane 8% lease rate and the fact the salesguy said there was zero flex in the price since they were so popular.

Does your tester have the 'Freedom top'?

I agree..or have SUV/truck/off-road people test them.

Construction site ? Gravel pit ?  Farm road ?  Local off-road club ?

Still, Wing might have a point...99% of these things never leave town.

[safristi]

..Just like 99% of the POpulation....whodaTHUNK.....

[RunsinLight]

I've always wanted a Wrangler but they just don't seem overly functional as a daily driver even though I'm single.

[safristi]

..as a Gay Farmer...i say hop on Meow...and i'll PLOW YA UNDER............

You're a Fanny Farmer, Saf?  I never knew...
