2003 Jeep Wrangler X 4WD 2dr Convertible SUV (4.0L 6cyl 5M)

Review

I got rid of my SE because it didn't have enough power and purchased an X. As expected, the 6 has much more kick than the 4. The fuel economy sucks, but it's a Wrangler not a Civic. The rebates were great at this time of year and my dealer had a lot in stock. Black with a khaki soft top, sharp!

Favorite Features

What's not to like?, it's a Wrangler. Fun in the sun and fun in the snow.

Suggested Improvements

The only complaint I have is the windshield wipers. They could use a little more speed and better rubber.

Review

My week old Wrangler is the best move this over-worked man has ever made. 2.4L is adequate, better than other 4 cyl I have owned, 5 speed is easy to shift, the hyd clutch is a piece of cake to work, good for beginners. Wish I had the full doors with window, it would make cool mornings better. It is truly relaxing to drive. Soft top is not that bad, 10 mins tops to do it right. I will always own a Wrangler from this point on. It's a Jeep Thing!!

Favorite Features

Soft top is my favorite part. Classic styling is a close second. 4-wheel drive capabilities, the feel of the ride are up there as well.

Suggested Improvements

Please ASAP put a better quality sound system in as a standard feature. Create a place to store door/window panels inside vehicle that is safe and conveinient.

Review

This jeep wrangler is an upgrade from your son's california college vehicle that he bought to drive the girls around in. It has improved ride, easier top, and all the safety features of a "regular" sedan. It still goes through flooded roads, across fields with the ease of the bigger "monsters" we hear so much about. Fuel economy is decent. I love the fact that the back seat folds forward to make the mini truck I wanted when I removed the seat from my old wrangler. Now I have the best of both worlds as I approach my 60 birthday. Signed the Blonde Supercharged Outdoors Woman

Favorite Features

Review

I bought a white Sport Model, with a hard top. I was in heaven as I drove it home. I parked it on the driveway and got out. I then noticed a black rubber hose hanging from the back of the car, which God knows for how long I had been dragging. As I inspected the bottom of the Wrangler I noticed a loose piece of plastic, on the back of the passenger’s side back fender. This piece had flapped out because of a missing screw. In addition, what I believed to be the differential axle was completely covered in rust. I called the dealership and told them to have the car I had just traded in ready because I wanted it back. One hour later I was back in my old car.

Favorite Features

After my experience, I can't say there are any. I owned my Wrangler for 1 hour so I believe I probably qualify for a Guinness record.

Suggested Improvements

Implement Quality Assurance!!! We are smart human beings who are not willing to buy just any piece of junk that rolls our of your factory.

Review

I HAVE BEEN SO PLEASED WITH THE COMPLETE VEHICLE THAT I JUST WENT OUT AND ORDERED A NEW 2004 EXACTLY LIKE MY 2000. I WENT IN TO ORDER A NEW VEHICLE WASN'T SURE WHAT I WANTED, SALESMAN ASKED ME HOW I LIKED MY PRESENT VEHICLE, I TOLD HIM IT DID EVERYTHING I WANTED IN A LEASURE TYPE VEHICLE. HE ASKED ME IF THERE WAS ANYTHING I WOULD CHANGE. THE MORE I THOUGHT ABOUT WHAT I WOULD BE GIVING UP IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE I MIGHT BUY LED ME TO ORDER A NEW WRANGLER JUST LIKE THE ONE I WAS TURNING IN. MY WIFE AND I ARE JUST APPROACHING RETIREMENT AGE BUT STILL LOOK FORWARD TO THE 900PLUS MILE TRIPS WE HAVE TAKEN AND WILL BE TAKING IN OUR JEEP.

Favorite Features

UTILITY, EASE OF GETTING AROUND IN TRAFFIC, PEACE OF MIND IN WINTER DRIVING, JUST PLAIN FUN.

TOP WILL NEVER BE EASY TO PUT UP AND TAKE DOWN,

Review

After several months with my Jeep, I am very happy with my purchase. I only wish the weather would cooperate so I could leave my top off more often. For 2003, the seats were re- designed and they are much more comfortable than prior years. Total Fun in the Sun!

Favorite Features

A convertible top that is actually not too difficult to put up and down (for a Jeep). And its pretty quiet when up.

Suggested Improvements

More power. The four cylinder has a touch time on the highway, especially with the A/C running.

Review

I have always wanted a Jeep Wrangler but, being in my late 40's, I thought it was a childish fantasy that I should finally put to bed. Then I came to my senses! It's fun, powerful, reliable (so far) and I can go anywhere in it. The 4WD-on-the-fly is easy and quite liberating. I'm short (4'11'') and to finally be able to see more than the back end of another car is one of the best features of this vehicle for me. Sturdiness and safety ratings are another huge plus. The awsome turning radius makes parking a complete breeze. And then there's the "Jeep Wave". It makes you feel at home wherever you are.

Favorite Features

Great power. Configuration flexibility. On and off-road stability. Height and weight.

Suggested Improvements

Power locks and auto-side-mirrors.
