Possible future fx2 owner
For the past few months I've really taken a liking to the new fx2's and considered trading my '07 wrangler 4 door for one, but not sure if I should pull the trigger. I love my jeep, but it's not a good everyday driver so I'm leaning towards getting rid of it and the fx2's are the only other thing I like. I actually test drove an '09 before I bought my jeep and loved it, but they wouldn't budge on price. For you fx2 owners have you had any regrets?
I've been driving a 2WD pickup every day for the last 12 years and no regrets. Driving a 2010 2WD XLT now, bought new and I like it a lot for DD. 4WD will always be better in snow but there's only been once in the last 10 years where I needed it and on that day I just happened to have a 4WD Dodge 1500. Had a good ice storm here about 6 weeks ago and my 2WD did fine with about 350 lbs winter weight in the back - again, 4WD would have been better but I had no problems and no regrets - I actually prefer 2WD seems to handle better and easier to turn in tight spaces etc. Odd though, my friend has a 2010 GMC and had to use 4WD to get off a wet lawn...lol
