You think you want one... but.... 2011 Jeep Wrangler Pros and Cons Member2636 Anemic. Even with shorter gears. It is what it is though. |

2010 Jeep Wrangler Pros and Cons A member in West Virginia, United States Lame engine. Strains going up long grades on Interstate with A/C on, merging and passing is also frustrating. Uses a lot of gas. Looking forward to new Pentastar engine for 2012. |

2006 Jeep Wrangler Pros and Cons Member5114 The old AMC inline six pulls like a freight train regardless of gear and can be lugged down way below idle speed off road without fear of stalling. |

2002 Jeep Wrangler Pros and Cons Member3708 Strong engine and smooth manual transmission; there never seemed to be a lack of power. The gearing was fantastic and never required a lot of downshifts on steep grades. |

2010 Jeep Wrangler Pros and Cons A member in British Columbia, Canada Rugged with a solid front and rear axle and a manually shifted part time transfer case, most other vehicles use failure prone electronics now. |

2008 Jeep Wrangler Pros and Cons A member in New Jersey, United States performance in general feels lacking, a stronger powertrain could give you better performace and better fuel economy |
|
2008 Jeep Wrangler Pros and Cons A member in Texas, United States Not as much low RPM torque as TJ and seems totally unfit for passing slightly slower traffic unless a long stretch is available. |

2007 Jeep Wrangler Pros and Cons Member1137 Engine felt sluggish. Miss the old I-6. |
|
2006 Jeep Wrangler Pros and Cons Member1921 Straight 6 engine 4.0L with plenty of power and proper gearing for off-road performance. 2006 was the last year for the straight 6 so if we wanted another jeep purchased new with the 4.0L straight 6 we needed to order a 2006. |
