Car is still giving me a ton of problems.

Powering steering going out again, apparently there is a leak. AC had some work done, now after about an hour it just stops blowing. Like you can hear it, but nothing is coming out. I guess another leak.

Im tired of this shite so Im going buy something new. I think I want a jeep.. Talk me out of it please?

I just got an FJ Cruiser a couple months ago. Like it a lot. A little more practical than a jeep. I'd like to have a jeep as a second driver but wouldn't want one as my primary driver...

I've had my Jeep for about a month and I am in love. Definitely not gonna talk you out of it. I even added some really tacky Bama stuff to it to make it look super trashy, and I still love it.

Doors off, top down... Can't beat it.

Eta: but the gas mileage SUCKS

New, I would consider the FJ Crusier. A new Jeep is still a Chrysler.

What are you driving now?

I have a 2011 FJ the resale is stupid high, so you can always unload it if you have to. Mine has the locking diff and the A trac it will go anywhere depending on tires and clearance of course. I love mine and will probably get a second one while i can

I'm about to sell my F150 and buy a jeep. I only drive 6 miles to work though, so it's an easy decision for me.

you still have a leak...so it's icing up and no air is flowing across the coils...get the leak fixed properly and charged and you shouldn't have another AC problem

Still doing the inspection thing?

what you really need is a Jetta or Passat TDI

I'd say try the new Chevy 2.0 diesel, but I wouldn't buy a first year anything ...
