I have owned this jeep for the past 6 years and am the second owner. I tow a boat frequently during the summer months and have found this vehicle to provide sufficient power and great handle while going through the mountains down to Idaho. Gas mileage is decent for the engine displacement and there is nothing like the feel of the Jeeps' suspension and 4 wheel drive during the winter months here in Calgary. I like the feel of this SUV so much that I bought another one recently and am going to keep this '04 as my second car and sell the other car that I have.
