Miles Overview
The CJ-7 is Jeep's classic compact off-roader, the one that started the whole Wrangler line. Around town it's a breeze to drive, and the short wheelbase makes parking simple, but keep it under 65 on the highway. The cabin is basic and the soft top flaps loudly at speed, but the heater really pumps out the hot air. Watch for body rust and windshield pitting, and be careful on wet roads since it can skid or even roll over. The Base CJ-7 is the no-frills entry point, with a manual steering box and vinyl seats instead of the optional hardtop or carpeting. Its 4.2L I6 pairs with a automatic transmission and four-wheel drive, giving you enough low-end grunt to crawl over rocks but not much highway passing power.
