I dont have many positive things to say about the Jeep brand, but I'll give it a shot. The straight inline 6 is a hell of a motor that will most likely outlast the numerous other problems you will encounter (I have the V8). If money wasnt an issue, and I was buying a Wrangler, It would be a Rubicon 100%. Locked front and rear with twin Dana 44 (aluminum I believe) axles. As for 4 or 2 door, I like the look of the 2 door better, but would love to have the longer wheelbase of the 4 door or unlimited. You will find a lot more 4x4 Jeeps as you get out of the south because of the different terrain. Try sites like jeepforum.com and jeepsunlimited.com and search the classifieds. Hopefully I can build my own one day and do some wheeling out west, but for now I'll just have to drool over ones I see on the Internet.
