They are like every other company trying to survive these days. Sure there are a lot of "Jeep" people if thats what you want to call it but now that they offer a 4 door version and a more refined interior, they attract a wider variety of people. As carish as it may look compared to older Jeeps, it is just as capable offroad. I had no problem keeping up with older Jeeps, some couldn't keep up with me. The only negative exterior wise, if you wanted to knit pick is that it has a wider stance and things get a little tighter for JK's. The factory ride height is taller to begin with so that also helps when taking off road. I am not knocking the older Jeeps, just defending the new ones. I for one am just glad they changed the engine and trans, more power and an extra gear is definitely needed in the unlimited.
