This it just my opinion. But based on your statements I think you are somebody who just operates a motor vehicle to get from point A too B and have no notion of what your Jeep Liberty (KJ) is capable of doing off road!
Your comment about "Too many other vehicles, CJ7 and Hummer H1, that are much more adept in those environments." is a joke.
And the fact that you think the stock tires are just fine?
That really sums up the fact that you are don't relize the comments that fellow KJ owners have had to say about the factory installed crap tires.
You are either a mouth breather.
Ignorant.
Or an Idiot and all of the above.
Please do sell your KJ to somebody else who can and will appreciate a Jeep KJ.
Go buy a Hummer fool and leave the Jeeps for us real enthusiasts.
Wow, more than a little hostility in your post. Seeing as how you know me so well, I am not going to put much stock in your opinion of me.
I am sure the stock tires suck in the mud or under most offroad conditions. But, on the road, they were just fine for me. Your mileage may vary of course, but it is hard to complain about any tire that runs for 65k miles without a single issue.
I already own a Hummer H1, so no need to go buy one as you so tactfully suggested. While I am sure a decently modified Liberty can perform adequately in many environments, it is hardly in the class of a Stock H1 or my locked and lifted 1985 CJ7. Both of which have run the Rubicon, Lions Back, countless Moab and Anza Borega trails, etc. And lets not forget nine Jeep Safari's. So, my offroad history is more than adequate to render opinions. Besides, I never insulted the Liberty. Simply stated I felt my CJ or H1 were better performers.
As far as the "real" Jeep enthusiasts comment, you are truly insane. I own, drive and wheel a Jeep that is MUCH more "real" in Jeep circles than any Liberty will ever dream of. Again, not saying the Liberty is bad, but hardly regarded as the cream of the crop by Jeepers.
