Brian

Hello,

I've been away from the group for a while, and was considering purchasing a
new 4 cylinder Wrangler. Any feedback on the new 4 cylinder engine? How is
it faring compared to the old 2.5?

Thanks,

Brian

it is a 2.4 liter dohc with 130 hp instead of 120...great engine but
personally I would spend a few more bucks and get the 4.0

Brian, I've had my 4 cyl. TJ for a year now and love it. It even
handles the A/C
in the summer without any pit falls. I get 23 - 24 mpg with a fair
amount of highway
driving included. It had some sensor failures when it was new and the
weather got
cold, but the dealer replaced several and I haven't had any problems
since. I like
to putt around up mountain roads in my area and a 4 cyl TJ is just made
for that, and
it takes me back and forth to work everyday. It is my vehicle of choice
to drive, rather
than my wife's V8 Explorer or our Mustang GT. . . . . It's A Jeep Thing
!
