As of now, chances of winning this with ~3,400 entries are MUCH better than the chances of being struck by lightning during one's lifetime. NOAA estimates that chances for that are 1/18,864.

Not bad.
Personally, little surprised that @Wraith didn't submit his Jeep into the 2024 Sexiest Jeep Alive competition. Surely would have made it to the finals.
Probably the first Nacho Jeep with the 2024 grille in the world here. I have not been a huge fan of the new grille (admit it does look better in person). However, it looks really dang good on your Jeep and it has me thinking.
I share this perspective. MT owners with 4.10s and shorter seem to have a far higher satisfaction rating with the manual.
I personally think that it is absurd that Jeep offers anything taller in a MT (though I can make several conjectures as to why...) and would probably recommend against...
While this thread started this morning, and is already 3 pages deep, I will nevertheless chime in here...
I currently own BOTH a 6spMT JLR and a 8spAuto JTM. The JTM is totally stock but my JLR has evolved from 4.10s+33s-> 4.10s+35s -> 5.13s+35s.
Hands down, the 6sp is SO much more fun to...
This is also one of those sad craigslist ads that headline the price as a monthly payment. The sort of ad that either buries the actual price somewhere or just doesn't show it at all (this one price buried). I don't mean this to be disrespectful but car dealer financing tricks played on...
Echoing that. I experience lugging in 3rd 4th gear under moderate acceleration up to about 2,000 rpm. Not 1st or 2nd though. With the gearing gap between 2nd and 3rd, means I now just wind the engine out longer in 2nd.
No lugging for me in 1st or 2nd even at lower RPMs.
I wheel medium. That means taking it to local trails but I try to avoid body damage.
Have a 2DOOR JLR. Experience is OEM33s/no lift->35x11.5/no lift->35x11.5/1.5inch lift->35x11.5/2.0inch lift.
On OEM Rubicon rims no lift, 35sx11.5s are fine. I had the slightest kiss on the rear fender liners...
I agree, it takes a while. I am sure that it takes just as long for the Auto Tranny drivetrain to break in too but there is no thinking and much less feedback to drivers in those that people, for the most, part, can probably not tell. Mash gas, mash brake, mash gas, mash brake.
