"Serious off-roaders will scoff at a so-called SUV with unibody construction, but we have a funny feeling they're not the new Explorer's target audience."

========================================

The above is my reply to the author ([email protected]) of the article in URL I referenced. I also included only 4 photos (in case their corporate email system blocks messages that are too large.) Please include a few of your own.

I honestly believe that the author could greatly benefit from a massive email carpet bomb from a great many serious offroaders who wheel our beloved unibody Cherokees. So please pass this message on to your friends and your clubs. You're welcome to use my comments or create your own, but please make sure to include the URL and his scurrilous remark. Needless to say, remove my name, tag line and club affiliations so you can insert your own.


Thank you,

I posted in the comment section with a picture of my junk dropping into lions den.

I was about to say something about these things folding up like a taco in my original post!

These things just make the perfect poor man's 4door Rubicon! Comfortable, capable, yet disposable.
 
I got a reply from the author:

I apologize. You're totally right, but I've got three caveats.

1.) It was a Wired article we syndicated -- we couldn't change the text on it.

2.) I think he means specifically a unibody without lockers and with terrible clearance.

3.) I used to own a lifted XJ and can personally attest to its off-road prowess. So I feel your pain.

I got much love for the XJ forumites -- please give them my love.
