Where are the haters, asks Motoring Crunch.  It’s a good point to bring up.  When the Cherokee was first announced with its new look and design, the old vanguard of Jeep lovers balked at it.  They cried foul and saw the death of Jeep in something new and different.  That didn’t stop the Cherokee from being one of Jeep’s newest juggernauts and all-around thoroughly enjoyed Jeep.  But what about the Renegade?

It’s a small article, clearly having a chip on the shoulder of however wrote it, but it does bring a point with it.  The Renegade was seen as not going to have much impact when it hit, that it was unneeded.  So far the early word from critics who have driven it to the people buying is that it is an excellent new addition to the Jeep library.

Where did those critics go?  Did they get wowed over from the Renegade or simply fade away?  One thing is for certain, the Renegade is a powerful new vehicle and is going to be, as MCrunch puts it, “a real force in the highly competitive compact SUV market.”

Do you agree or disagree with on this about the Renegade?  Do you think it is a Jeep misfire or going to be a hit?  Let us know in the comments.
