Still small, despite the increased size of the vehicle. see full Jeep Wrangler review |

There is not much rear leg room and the seat has you sitting straight up instead of slight recline. see full Jeep Wrangler review |

The AMC designed inline 6 pulls like a tractor and has given me no problems in my (admittedly short) 6 month ownership. I appear to have an anomoly though, at over 200,000 miles my motor uses no oil and has no check engine light (the bulb is good, I see it light up when I start the motor but then it goes right out). see full Jeep Wrangler review |

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. see full Jeep Wrangler review |

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. see full Jeep Wrangler review |
