Bought an 08 unlimited, roof never leaked, no electrical or tranny problems (and I tow a boat), no problem at highway speeds, been in shop 11 times for oil changes……FJ cruisers are gay!
@sirmasterpimp
I’m not trying to argue here, but if the 3.8 hasn’t changed since the early 90′s, then it must be a pretty good engine, right? :]
@Theibogaineeffect They already have a diesel, but the US won’t allow it here (doesn’t meet emissions tests)
does the rubicon have 4 low?
my 1988 jeep willys is faster
really
im sorry a 3.8L V6 and 200hp? My 2.0 inline 4 makes that much
@desimunda116 Im assuming thats the VW 2.0 turbo four that doesn’t make the torque to compare to the Jeep?
@The0861marine well actually i own a civic si and yes i agree the torque is way off, but speaking of the 2.0L turbo from VW, it does get close to the amount of torque. And there are engines around that displacement that deliver a lot more. The 3.5 V6 from Toyota, Honda and Nissan.
Hi! what is the start video song name?
SRT8 please
@desimunda116 it may have that much hp but i doubt ur pulling 240 tourqe jeeps arnet for speed but for offroading
@tuk2332 the V6 engine thats put into the Accord has a smaller displacement and puts out 254lb-ft of tourqe and has better mpg. i realize jeeps are for offroading and not for speed i’m just saying that it shouldn’t take that high of a displacement to produce those numbers.
this jeep decked out or a 72 bronco decked out???
??
Take the rear spare tire off to boost mpg.
the engine is of a 10 year old design. no variable valve timing, no double over head cam, no direct injection. It is reasonable hp and torque for a old engine.
@5cmpersec this engine does have a variable intake manifold but the new jeeps will get the pentastar engine with that plus dvvt, dohc, DI, and possible turbo applications. the 3.6 in the 2011 grand cherokee makes 280HP N/A.
@desimunda116 well with the discontinue of the inline 6, 4.0 they had to use something and the only engine in production at the time (2006) was the 3.8, which produces adequate torque for this application. the new variates of the pentastar engine (which is what they’ve been putting a lot of work into) will be a great improvement.
@sideburns2009 The new Pentastar engine would make jeep wrangler a lot more desirable. Hope we don’t need to pay too much premium for the new engine
@5cmpersec i doubt the price will go up. Fiat is doing some good things and keep prices reasonable is one of them, along with redesigned interior’s that aren’t plastic. can’t wait til the 2011 lineup starts showing up.
in my opinion Jeep Wrangler can easily turn over more than other 4×4 cars.
Does the Wrangler have a 2 wheel drive option? I know you can get a full time 2 wheel drive, but it’s a wrangler, who’d get a 2wd wrangler? Can you go from 4 wheel drive, then flip a switch or something so you get 2wd?
@whateverfast22 Yes, the model shown (Sahara) has 2wd for normal driving, and the ability to switch to 4wd high or low when off road, using a shifter in the cabin. The 4wd system on this one however is only a part-time system. If you want full time 4wd get the Rubicon model.
@meltingcube Thats exactly what I need, a 2wd truck for the road, and a 4wd truck for everything else. thanks
He sounds like Seth Green.. Just sayin
FINALLY !
Someone tells it like it is. It is a JEEP. Not a fashion accessory like a Lexus or a Hummer.
