TJ driver here, and I agree.

Yeah I think most of the hate is for the JK/JL. The older jeeps like the CJ, YJ, TJ aren’t really chick vehicles.

I have a TJ too.

It’s not a daily driver - 12MPG sucks.
It’s not in the shop very much - only ~1 month last year (and that’s not including all the shite I fixed myself like fuel pump, intake manifold, spark plugs, tie rods, etc )
The duck thing is stupid - I feel like it’s more of a 4door/JK thing.
Death Wobble is a legit concern - but that’s not a Jeep thing, that’s a solid front axle thing. It happens on F250s, F350s, RAMs, etc.
it’s definitely slow. I at least have the AMC 4.0 and it’s one of the toughest engines you can get, but it takes a while to get to 75mph. I don’t know how the 2.5 4 cylinder people can drive on the interstate.
