I’ve wanted a Wrangler for as long as I can remember. I just hate the floaty dead fish steering wheel. I’m assuming this will be better.

That's badass manI feel the same way. The wife has a JK, she loves it, and I still love her anyway. I have my toy as well. Even my hardcore jeep buddies will give me grief for not having a jeep. I tell them it is a JEEP, Just Everybody Else's Parts, I've got a Ford Motor, Chevy Axles, Old's Steering column... blah blah. . I still wave back to the Jeeps that wave at me too. Nothing wrong with being outside the box.
What about cost-wise. Does mid trim Jeep compare to BD ??Somewhat.
I like my Jeep, it's been a great vehicle and have had a blast 4 wheeling with it over the almost 10 trouble free years I've owned it. But as a DD it sucks, plain a simple. I'm used to it so it doesn't really bother me, but whenever I drive something else and then hop back in my Jeep I'm reminded just how bad it rides. The sloppy and heavy steering, the rough ride from the solid front axle paired with a lift kit makes for a dump truck like ride. It's almost as bad as the step side vans we got in our work fleet. Just without all the banging and rattling.
So I'm actually looking forward to the IFS, rack and pinion steering and slightly larger cabin, I'm 6'5" so it's a little snug in my JK. I'm absolutely in love with the 2 door removable top and doors so when thinking about new vehicles you're options were, Wrangler or....yea that's it. I'm all for competition in that segment so I was glad to see Ford step up and actually bring a legit competitor to the mix. So it's not a Jeep vs Ford thing for me, but a competitor that on paper has made a vehicle more aligned with my needs, and one that looks fuckin awesome!!
