Car Reviews 2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

The Jeep Wrangler underwent a major overhaul in 2007. Improvements were made that caused a quieter and more comfortable ride than had been seen in previous models. An improved four-wheel drive system, V-6 engine, axles, and better ground clearance are just a few of the dramatic changes to come about beginning with the 2007 model. Other creature comforts like power windows were made available for the first time as well. It was also the first time, a four-door edition of the Wrangler was manufactured. The Jeep had become less like its World War 2 ancestor and had improved as a highway vehicle, although it continued to thrive in an off-road environment. The 2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited received only minor changes from the 2007 model. Cosmetic changes such as a tire pressure monitor, remote engine starting, and a Sunrider soft top on more trim levels represent the main differences between the two models. In most other respects, the vehicles were identical. The most noticeable feature of the Unlimited is its size. Much heavier than other Wranglers, the Unlimited holds its place in the road much better than Jeeps of the past. The extended space, including four-doors, now makes it possible for families to enjoy the Jeep experience. In the past, Jeep owners who wished to start a family were often times forced to sell their vehicles due to its size restraints. The Unlimited makes this a non-issue, as it can easily seat up to five occupants comfortably. The 2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited came from the factory in three different trims. The Wrangler X, was the base vehicle. It could be purchased as a stripped down Jeep, to be modified later at the owner’s discretion, or fitted at the factory with some of the various options found on more expensive trims. The Sahara trim came with options geared more toward creature comforts, such as a Sunrider soft top, YES Essentials upholstery, air conditioning, cruise control, fog lights, a height adjustable driver’s seat, a improved sound system, leather wrapped steering wheel, tow hooks, compass and temperature gauges, fender flares which match the body color, side steps, a heavy duty suspension, tinted glass, better tires, and 18-inch aluminum wheels. The Rubicon came from the factory the most prepared for off-road adventure. This trim package added some of the Sahara amenities as well as a variety of improvements suited Category:Home › Home • Will higher gasoline prices mean lower sales for new cars? — part 2 • Will higher gasoline prices mean lower sales for new cars? — part 1 • Should the crew of the Sea Shepherd board whaling ships? • Which makes a better pet: A dog or a cat? — part 13 • Grandparents: Can blogging chronicle your genealogy? • Which makes a better pet: A dog or a cat? — part 12 • Are teachers unions the cause of public school problems today? • Which makes a better pet: A dog or a cat? — part 11
