Never buy a used Jeep Rental. HORRIBLE

I swear, the last test drive, I wasn't too impressed.



I remember when Jeep used to build a real..................jeeep.

Some of the most fun times of my youth were in a $50.00 car, in the woods. Seatbelts, helmets, and hang on .

Funner to watch than F1, Nascar and Indycar combined.

I well remember riding shotgun in my buddy's '65 Buick Electra 88, chasing legitimate four wheelers through the woods on some pretty gnarly Jeep trails. Momentum was the key to "success", such as it was.

I didn’t watch the whole thing but that video is hilarious. I like the guy in the SUV w the wing on the roof who rolls but keeps going.

Acting like a maroon in a really funny way is an American tradition.

Though my new CJ5 stayed covered in mud, topless fer 4-5 months at a time....I never had it teetering on two wheels...deciding whether to roll on over. That happened twice as a rear passenger (no top)....once creeping along the "power lines".... another...hard left @ 25 mph....teens are idjuts...some just mo' ...

bit more of a lift on those Jeeps at the beginning and they would have been fine.

liked the one at the end, would be a hoot, maybe a full face helmet for that sort of work

Having lived a life of taking good care of my equipment, that is painful to watch. FUN, but painful........
