2dr SUV 202-horsepower 3.8L V6 6-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range
I love the 3-piece hard top and the electic swaybar disconnect and rear locker options on the X really make it a capable off-road vehicle while costing thousands less than a Rubicon. The aftermarket accessories are also readily available.
