I drive...a 1997 Honda CR-V. Got it a week ago, still working out some kinks...go-to-the-dealer kinks, at that.

(And I just realized, I never posted that in the "Help Billfred Find a Ride!" post. So yeah, that ends the big mystery.)

what? why do you get a impreza and i have to stick with a neon?
NOT FAIR!! :ahh:
and i have a Plymouth Neon too.. 98' i think dodge sounds better than plymouth.. its less letters to write anyways. well, the thing special about my car is, it has no power anything whatsoever. no power windows, locks, seats, nothing. no AC either. gotta fix that.. oh, and also the engine has no power either. 3 spd automatic and most hills it drops to second. bleh :rolleyes: and its a 2liter engine too. wonder why its so weak.. help, anyone? :yikes:

Don't ask questions.. Just accept it, or go around and beat the heck out of it and risk it blowing up.. :yikes: How many miles on it, and did your speedometer and fuel gauges start "freaking out" yet??

Grady, where are you.. You need to respond to this too.. lol

You're lucky you don't have AC.. The AC just acts as one more system to make the electrical system freak out and make the whole overall car's power weaker. :ahh:

VIBE?!?!

Man, we had an '02 State Fleet Special--erm, Malibu for Driver's Ed. Coach Stillwell scared the excrement out of many a student in that car.

Myself included.

id definitly start fiddling with everything on it if only i didnt need to share it with my sister who is one year older than me... it doesnt have too many miles on it and the fuel gauge is kinda hard to freak for the gas tank just holds 10 gallons.
and i do have an AC. or should. it just doesnt work. so theres one part of why the car's weak..

How could you!?!! That thing replaced the legendary Cherokee! Solid Axles Forever! IFS in a Jeep just makes no sense to me. The Cherokee was the vehicle that saved the Jeep company from near collapse back in I think it was 84. It truly was legendary. With minor updates they could have keeped it for another 6 years at least, not replace it with something inferior.To be fair to both sides of the issue I have seen some pretty cool lifted and modded Libertys What is even scarier is the styling of future Jeeps. I have seen some concept vehicles that have not been released to ANYONE (media, etc.) -- as in they are at least 4+ years away -- and all I have to say is they are downright ugly. I sure hope they never make it to production. At least they are putting the HEMI in the Grand Cherokee for 05 and aside from the styling downgrade (IMHO), the 05 GC should ROCK!

The driving schools near where I live use Mustangs and Eclipses. I think they'd make aweful cars for learning in. I personally think driving schools should use trucks, maybe like oh, um, a RANGER! :)

The Jeep liberty not only replaced the cherokee it gave the consumer an intermediate choice between the rough wrangler and the plush cherokee the cherokee was not replaced all together they are still in production, the liberty was never ment to completly replace the cherokee. The liberty is still trail rated and can preform on the trails like the wrangler but has a little more comfort but not as much comfort as the cherokee, and all 3 vehicles the wrangler, liberty and the cherokee preform very well on the trails, on the road and in over all safety.

I have seen all of the concept vehicles up close at camp jeep this past weekend and they look very cool (IMHO). And I can't wait untill they are put into production.

My liberty is completly stock, all it has is 3 skid plates, a class three hitch, tow hooks, and rock rails thats it! No lift no special tires or anything. How could you say that the liberty is inferior???? I took that liberty on two different trails the first was a beginers course because i have never taken the vehicle off road, the second was and intermediate course, that liberty went where some wranglers and cherokees couldn't. I am very proud of my liberty and i can't wait untill Camp Jeep # 11 next year.
