I have no idea why anyone buys these things.

See...I dont get this. I've had 3 Jeeps in my lifetime, 2 Grand Cherokees and a Patriot and I loved them all.
Not going to lie, the Jeep Patriot was one of my favourite cars.
"You know thats just basically an AWD station wagon right?"
Uh huh. Whats wrong with that? Its got AWD, its heavy as hell and it has a low centre of gravity. Added Winter tires and that thing was glued to the road. I loved it. The only gripe I had was it was a dog. Just no power.
I dont need a super-fast car, but a little more juice would have been nice.
But I remember going camping with buddies when I had one of the Cherokees...
"You've got a Jeep! Lets go off-roading!!"
How about no? I know its a Jeep, but it also has to get me to work in a couple days so I'd prefer not to break it.
But after renting a Wrangler in Hawaii and swapping to my sister's? I'd never buy one. They're nice cars with lots of options and such but...no way.
Its just not what I want out of a daily driver.
