Like Snibble said, see what that Jeep will look/run like in 15 years. Also, what about OEM parts availability in 15 years. When I bought my TD last November, the first thing I did was buy some new genuine Mercedes floormats for it. The color match was perfect, and this is for a 19 year old car. Just for my own curiousity I called a local Ford dealer about the availability of floormats for a '93 Taurus. They said they don't make anything that old. The oldest they can get is 1996. Long term product/customer support is what I like about MB. Any car company can make a car look great on the showroom, but that's just window dressing.
