Well atleast they have made allowances for poor American build quality and put an extra motor in it when one of them fails.

You never know.... they may manufacture the vehicle in AUSTRIA - where my Jeep comes from. Vastly different attitute to spinning the screwdriver over there......

They still rate poorly in reliability surveys however.
If they made them in Japan you would be a good chance of a
well made car.

Stick the surveys..... if you buy cars according to "surveys" you wouldn't want any of them - Toyotas included.
I haven't had any problems at all in my Jeep after nearly 60,000km of HARD driving - including the 50% off-road component.

Try and sell a second hand jeep !
Chrispy says 60,000km s!!
Are you kidding ?
That is equivalent to around
the block compared to what the Jap 4wd's will do.

CHRISPY WROTE .

Yeh I guess real world experience from real living folf is rubbish hey ? . If you are saying that somebody who parts with their hard earned wh=ould then go and rubbish it in a consumer survey without jiust cause you are sorely mistaken.
If you take a big enough sample base as they all do it is a VERY accurate assessment of the cars reliability.

If you could afford one then fuel cost would be your last concern, looks good to me for a fun toy i'd have one.
