Thread: Calling 10+ Jeep wrangler V6 owners

Had my 12 fr almost a year and I just past 6000 miles. Love the new engine and transmission. If your looking for off road fun you will have a hard time beating the wrangler. Check out some of the wrangler forums. There is a very active online community for jeeps. Have fun with your new toy.

I have a 2010 with 20k miles, no issues so far just that it is under powered. Like the guys have said before go with a 12, from what I have read and the one I test drove the new v6 is far superior, worth the extra bucks!

Never had a problem at all with my 10 and she has had a hard life. I wish she had the engine the SRT8 has
Gears helps the underpowered 6 a whole lot esp with the 35's on her.

The 2012 is a huge difference. My 2011 is getting a kenne Bell supercharged Hemi put in it right now
The black one is 2011, white is 2012.

I picked up a '12 about 5 months ago cause I needed something 4wd for winter and I have to say it's a great vehicle I'm very happy with it

I've got 33K on my 2011 and no issues. I use her like a Jeep is supposed to be. Given a choice, I'd rather have the new motor in the 2012, but it makes no difference here...

so all the 2012 models come with the v6...no hemi options...also no automatic trans options?

Do they all come with a hardtop only aswell..

No hemi option yet, yes there's auto, no they're not all hard top, but i recommend it.

Our 2010's engine was fine, until we lifted it. SOoooooo sluggish now. Like 0-60 in, like, never. Jeezus its slow. Works great for offroading though.

Regearing makes a big difference, if you haven't already...

We havent just yet. We're actually waiting until we bump up to 37's to re-gear. For now Im just going to chip it to up the power a bit. Daily it only gets driven 1 mile, so not really worth it.
