I think I lucked out because he did get stuck there, and when we were on our way out of there later that day I got stuck going the other way.

Did that jeep REALLY get stuck in That Exact same mud hole? Did you make it through?

It really all depends on what you're looking to do with your car. I was in a similar position to you when I first started driving. I'm 19 now and it's my 2 year anniversary with my 96 Disco SE7 next week. It was my first car, and I really didn't know much about anything mechanical when I first got it, but luckily for me I found this forum and a friend of mine that is a pretty good mechanic. Trust me, you will know a lot about mechanics if you drive one of these long enough.
Anyway, these cars are hit or miss with most people. You hate 'em or you love 'em. If you do get one you will have pretty much the slowest car at school with the worst fuel economy. BUT, you will also have the most capable off road truck, as well as something that is actually really comfortable to drive or ride in. If you get an SE7 you'll have 7 legal seats in there. My friends love driving around in my truck, and I love taking everyone off roading. My jeep buddies are constantly surprised at what my truck can handle.
See that jeep behind me there? He got stuck and he's on 33" tires with huge lift. I'm completely stock.
But anyway, go test drive one, see if you like it. I bet you will.
