RE: 2008 Jeep Liberty Unmasked
ORIGINAL: nickoman01 as of right now i would not get one to replace my current one. it is not a liberty if the spare tire isn't on the rear. that is really what is getting me down about it. Joe |

Joe i would kind of expect all that to happen. i think i remember watching a crash test on the news were they backed it into a poll at like 10 mph and the back window shattered. was your wife perfectly fine when all was said and done? if she was then the vehicle did its job. i will have to see and drive one in person before i make a call either way but i would of preferred if they modeled it after the GC instead of the commander. |
RE: 2008 Jeep Liberty Unmasked
Wouldn't the tire absorb some of the impact, thus making the vehicle safe for a faster rear impact?

She had glass in her hair, but thats it. If my daughter was in the back seat she would have got a ton of shattered glass thrown at her. So no it didn't do its job. A minor fender bender should not incure that much damage. If the guy had just hit the bumper only the bumper would have got it, not the whole rear end of the truck. It was only a cavalier that hit her! Joe |
RE: 2008 Jeep Liberty Unmasked
fair enough well i guess it is a good thing i am usually going to fast to get rear ended and the fact i avoid traffic lights in general.

Very, very nice!

RE: 2008 Jeep Liberty Unmasked
Eh its ok. Im partial to the orange Patriot concept thing with the aftermarket bumper and oversized tires. I like the look of the commander too, its just kind of a pointless vehicle though. I bet the new wrangler has more foot room in the back seat than a commander, I bet its wider too. It just dont have that third seat. If I was making great money(like 400k a year) I might buy a hemi commander though, they look sweet.

RE: 2008 Jeep Liberty Unmasked
It's ok...Kinda lost the true Jeep feeling without the round headlamps...Plus that one seemed too nice to beat up on a trail or in the backwoods...Yet, im sure plastic is coming like that of a Nitro...It could be up a little bit higher off the ground...All n' all, Im sure it will grow on us

RE: 2008 Jeep Liberty Unmasked
I dig it. Looks like a baby Commander. I'd drive it.
