You said it yourself, dude. Less unneccesary electrical optional equipment to break when you are up to your door handles in the goo.

all the options are INSIDE the jeep, lol. While I agree, less options = less stuff to break (why I drive a 5 speed, crank window 97 sport), but I don't agree it effects the offroading capability any.

and you go ahead and keep on thinking that until you are sinking in mud/water or you've rolled over 3 or 4 times and those power windows and locks you love so much have shorted out and leave you trapped inside your Jeep.

you mean like this?



And who the hell wheels with their windows up anyway? I mean if you're afraid of a little mud then maybe a jeep isn't the best fit for you... am I right?

Isn't the sport model a little higher than other models? I thought it was about 1.5" higher... if so defenatly better for offroading

I thought on all sport models regardless of make or model the suspension was a little better. In a jeep better would be a little taller... that's my explenation for why some xjs are so low and some are not, even though both are stock.
