The 3.6 is only better on the freeway, offroad, I don't see a difference, neither the 3.6 or 3.8 builds power or torque down low. I guess if you are obsessed with drag racing or having to pass everyone on the freeway, the 3.8 isn't for you. I enjoy the time spent in my Jeep, and tend not to...

Thank you for the recomendations!

I want to put a leveling kit on mine, and would like to put in some 4.88 gears, provided they will work with the factory lockers, I don't plan on ever running anything bigger than 33" tires, in fact the stock 32" have worked for everywhere I have wanted or needed to go, I could probably get away...

I regularly get 19mpg in my 02 Cummins, moving from Alaska to New Mexico, I averaged 16.3mpg pulling a 9000# camper. The only time I have had to be pulled out was when I made a knucklehead move, and high centered. Of course the price would have to be right, you're going to pay 30+ cents per...

I have no issues with traffic, even when I have to go to the city, but then again I don't feel the need to cruise at over 75 mph. To each his own, I wish they would have given us something with low end grunt instead of something that peaks at 4000 rpm, power in that band is only good for the...

I drove a 2012, and I didn't notice any real difference until I hit above 2K RPM, I think the transmission had more of an effect on performance than the engine, I would certainly take the transmission. What I like about the 3.8 is the fact that there are millions of them out there, and there...

So I am not alone! Good to hear JIMBO, I only have a standard JKR, but I love it!

Seems everyone has ditched this long lasting engine for the new 3.6, which builds more HP and torque, but still at 4K RPM. At some point, I guess Jeep will build an SRT Wrangler, it seems to be what people want.

Wow, it would seem that I now own the most unpopular Jeep ever! I certainly hope that support doesn't completely dry up for 07-11 Wranglers with the 3.8. Mine with the 4:1 low range has plenty of power in the rough stuff, would like to have better gears in the diffs, but for this 2 door, they...

Thanks Corey!

Out hunting in Southern New Mexico.

There are just so many places to explore in New Mexico, it is almost overwhelming.

Absolutely Corey, I try to spend as much time as is possible in the Lincoln Natl. Forest, and I work at Holloman AFB.

Thank you Sergeant!

Thanks for the welcome Dave!

The only modifications I have made were adding a stubby front bumper with a winch, that and I stuffed the sound bar full of pillow batting to improve the sound quality of the speakers. When I next have some extra funds, I will be doing a little leveling, but not too much, right now I average...

Hello, just found this website, looks very interesting. I am a retired MSgt from the USAF, have been driving my 2010 JKR for 2 years now and I love it. While most of the Jeepers I know here are into rock crawling, I am more interested in expedition, I really don't want 35s and a lot of lift, I...
