I think this is a good example of how their car rating metric fails. Another example is how they knocked the ZR1 for having bad gas mileage. Missing the point, in my book. With a Wrangler, if you care about road noise, creature comforts, fuel mileage, or cargo space you don't buy one.

You cannot categorize "enthusiast" vehicles with run of the mill Camry washing machines. Doesn't work that way.
