Jeep Article
Check out the June issue of car and Driver... PJ O'Rourke writes a terrific piece on why he loves the Wrangler...
Here's a blurb.
"Give me a Jeep. It's not perfect, but neither are we. The Jeep is straight, square and forthright. It reminds us of something that makes us feel good. And, if being reminded of WWII makes us feel good compared with what other cars remind us of, those are some damn creepy cars. At least the Jeep looks like a motor vehicle, not some netsuke or plush toy or what the computer-styling software did when the cat fell asleep on the keyboard.
The Jeep is a manly device, and a womanly device. An American device. It's a fitting instrument to transport the free people of a free nation with the respect and the dignity we deserve."
My regards,
Widewing

Sums up my feelings about the Wrangler very nicely.
