Artigo interessante sobre jeep wrangler. Aliás, vale para TODOS, não só wrangler. São citações ditas para o Wrangler que valem para qualquer jipe. Quem lê outros fóruns, como defender, bandeirante, troller, etc, vai identificar citações comuns. Estou cansado de ver gente comprando jipe e reclamando de besteira, em todos essas áreas. O fórum de picapes de todas marcas tem nego reclamando de barulhinho em feixe de molas, etc. Se depender desse público, teremos no futuro belas banheiras confortáveis e tecnológicas que não servem pra nada além de asfalto. Então, pra quem nunca teve jipe, seguem algumas desvantagens (em inglês):
"The Jeep Wrangler is definitely not for everyone." "...you'll either love it or you'll hate it."
"While a Wrangler rides more like a truck than a car..."
"Don't get a Wrangler on an impulse buy! Instead, do your homework thoroughly. Research it. Test drive it. Test drive other vehicles. Talk to other Wrangler owners and (especially) ex-owners."
Segurança:
"Those who prefer the luxury of a smooth ride or leather seats will be highly disappointed. Families with children will prefer the safety and security that other SUVs provide."
"If you're overly concerned about luxury, safety or security, you won't like a Wrangler."
"If you really need a passenger vehicle, a Wrangler probably won't work for you."
"If comfort, security, and safety are tops on your list of vehicle requirements, you should probably think twice about buying a Jeep Wrangler."
Conforto:
"Uncomfortable front seat positions for taller drivers"
"Even in the summer, the air is cooler than you'd think - must always bring a jacket"
"Base sound system is less than adequate"
"Short wheelbase makes highway driving rougher than in larger vehicles"
"Firm suspension results in a stiff, bumpy ride"
"Slow steering"
"Awkward ingress - requires high step in"
"Noisy - road, wind, engine, and tire noise"
"Lack of cargo space for luggage, groceries, etc."
