A hell of a lot more reliable than a wrangler. I'd say close to Toyotas, which are very reliable.

The Japanese know their **** when it comes to cars *nods*

^^ exactly.

Also, and like any other car, you really want to baby it for the break in period. Treat it right, it'll love you; treat it wrong, it'll rape you.
