Before you make a selection, you may want to decide if you plan on keeping it pretty stock or building the performance from a "platform". The 2.0T does not have as many options to make it more powerful. Just something to think about: I chose the 2.0T for 2 reasons: First was I really liked the quick acceleration of the 2.0T compared to the standard 3.6 V6. I never even thought about changing anything until I actually owned it. Next, a friend who I trust is a mechanic for one of the local mopar dealerships in my area recommended the 2.0T as a proven solid motor that was fun to drive in the street. He is not a Jeep guy, he drives a big Ram Deisel. His wife has an Alfa Romeo that has the same 2.0T motor and it is a 2017 and going strong. I haven't had any engine issues 12K. And my mechanic friend has not reported any turbo related issues on much higher mileage units, as they are now into their 4th year of use on the Jeep, and have a long history before that in European road cars. If you notice, all the new 1/2 ton trucks come with turbo V6 motors which have replaced the smaller V8's. I think the 4 cylinder turbos are replacing the 6 cylinder standard injection models. I sure hope they don't try to replace the gas/diesel Jeeps with electric. My Jeep mileage goes way down when I am off-roading, and there is no way to carry and extra battery with you, in case you run out of juice.
You could add a supercharger to the 3.6 for $10k to get to this level, or a jb4 and a few hundred dollars of bolt on parts on the 2.0t...
No you wouldn't
Good plan. When I ordered my Jeep, the standard V6 was unavailable. V6 with etorque was gonna cost me $1700 over the 2.0 ($1200 charge vs -$500 credit). With the $1700 savings I can get a Mopar extended warranty, and have money left over, through Granger and not have to worry about it for at least 100k miles.
“Ricer” and “Solly, cholly?”
"Ricer" is a derogatory term usually used for vehicles built in Japan or Korea, but also ignorantly applied to other foreign makes in the United States (such as German or Italian vehicles).
Source?
I just wanted to call it out, being Asian myself and subject to all sorts of racist bs, but I figured I’d let them try to explain themselves.
What are ya even talking about. Why ya trying to bring that 2022 sensitive shit here. Ricer is used for people (mostly Hondas) that try and make their cars look or sound fast but it’s still a piece of shit theirs nothing racist or nothing wrong with the word ricer ya doing too much now
And "Solly, Cholly"? Please inform me how you think it isn't racist.
Did I say anything about solly cholly? No because I don’t know anything about that or never heard it but ricer I known Heard and said for a long time through car racing car shows so I will defend ricer from people trying to make it into a race thing. Why don’t ya tag the man and straight up be like was you being racist? Was you being funny what you meant by that instead of jumping to conclusions?
I've provided a pretty extensive summary regarding "Solly, Cholly", which you have ironically quoted but still somehow failed to understand. You should try taking the whole post into context, instead of declaring the single word you recognize isn't racist.
I don't think saying/hearing a word more makes it any less racist, especially when paired with "Solly, Cholly".
Are you saying it can't be racist if it's intended to be a joke? I disagree.
