lol. having owned a 92 jeep yj many many moons ago, i know exactly why i bought it. all those pictures i've seen of girls in jeeps, girls driving jeeps. a good looking girl in a tank top, cutoffs and baseball cap with a pony tail driving a jeep gets the juices flowing.

sadly, it got me an expensive divorce. lol
That, Sir, is about the funniest short story I have ever heard! Ahhhhhahaha!

The Fiats are ugly POS's. Only thing worse is a smart for2. Only good thing about any of those is a great crash feature, in a crash, handles pop out of the sides for the pallbearers to hold onto.......:rolleyes:
I traded in my 1500 for a Fiat Abarth 500. That's the hot rodded one with no mufflers and one turbo from the factory. It handles like nothing you ever imagined for $20k. Like a slot car. I loved it but it was gonna kill me. I found myself trying to drift it on exit and entrance ramps. It was governed at 130 mph. And rock steady. Traded it in after 2 yrs and 3 sets of tires & 2 sets of brakes for my current ride. 2500 CCLB 4X4 6.4

It was cool but it was no Jeep. Then again, last Jeep I was in was an '86 CJ7. Last of the Round Eyes.

Out with the old (red) Ram and in with the new (white) Ram.138206b11e8041fe405ec3c4b3c35621.jpg8fb1f045a650e96a7da1f4d5316e5926.jpgdb1f270756696897f08e99047e5b5864.jpg

So dropped the ram off today at the dealer for a tick and some other small stuff which is fine no issue. But......... they gave me a jeep renegade as a loaner. All I can say is this thing is the biggest **** I've ever seen. It's about as comfy and luxurious as a 92 cavalier, the air feels like a small desk fan at best, I'm only 6ft and I feel like I'm driving a go kart because my knees are jammed into the dash. And to make it worse it's not even a fun go kart because it feels like it has 7 mouse power. All jokes aside I wouldn't pay 5k for this thing new. Clearly they designed and approved this thing on 4/20 because they had to have been high to think this was desirable enough to build. I enjoyed driving my 99 saturn with no ac more than this thing and I drove that car on 100+ days in bumper to bumper traffic. Not sure if the renegade screams hipster or virgin more or both but it truly is that bad. Sorry to anyone that owns one of these things no trying to start a arguement just had to get that off my chest lol.

Lots of snivels about the Fiat 4 cylinder with auto trans.

Wife has a Cherokee with the V-6, and 8 spd. That's a zippy little thang.

You should have kept it in the glovebox of your 2500 for emergencies....
Was that middle picture proof that a fiat is bigger than a laptop?:D
