Re: 6 cyl. YJ or 4 cyl. TJ?????????
 
This is pasted from the Wrangler page off of the Jeep website:
Base Curb Weight - Automatic Trans - 3268 lb

So I guess a "real" Jeep must weight about 1100 pounds?

And since weight is the only performance factor, I have found the ultimate
Jeep for anyone that thinks so silly:

It's even got dual batteries and it is painted like a "real" Jeep.

Wow. With those tires it looks like you couldn't get enough traction
to pull a greasy string out of a cat's @ss with a snatch-block rigged
up. *chuckle*
