Once known for its rugged looks and Spartan interior, the Jeep Wrangler was the proletariat dream.
Now, however, it has slowly been receiving upgrades bringing it into the 21st century. And it seems they have paid off. The 2010 Jeep Wrangler 4-dr I recently drove was actually pretty modern with its touch-screen navigation unit.
Granted, it had the shifter of a schoolbus -- indeed, it was a standard gearbox.
Consumer Reports actually says it looks relatively upscale. I agree. That's with good reason because when you price out the cost of a Wrangler today, they are not that cheap anymore.
What do you think of 2011 Wrangler, Spies? Diggin' its updated look with its nicer interior?
