Everyone is familiar with the Jeep. “The Jeep” is the icon of military vehicles, dating back to the Second World War. Anyone who has watched a war movie should have seen one.
Over the years, the Jeep brand has brought out various consumer-oriented vehicles, such as the Compass, the Grand Cherokee, and the Liberty. They all carry some distinctive Jeep design cues such as the round headlamps flanking the seven-slot front grill, and the Wrangler carries most of the famous military Jeep form into the consumer domain.
The exterior appearance of the Wrangler has a strong resemblance to what you see in WWII movies. It is, however, a surprisingly big vehicle. Riding on intimidating P255R75R16 tires for the base Wrangler X model, the vehicle measures 72 inches tall. Pulling up behind a Lexus RX330 at a traffic light, I had a good view of its roof from the Jeep driver’s seat. The driver and front passenger would have to literally climb into the seats in the front, and on the 2-door models, getting into the back requires agility for the backseat passengers.
