Bye Bye Rubicon, hello Willys XR

Wow, for anyone thinking of buying a six speed do yourself a favor and drive a 2.0L with the Xtreme 35 package. I can't begin to stress how much of a better driving vehicle this is.

Beautiful XR. Wish they offered this configuration with the 3.6 auto.

Nice Willys! Does the Willys XR have front lockers? Is the rear different than the regular Willys?

went from a 6spd sport on 33s to an XR w the 2.0 and auto the difference is night and day. was and still am so glad i did the switch. i dont get off road a lot, and do a lot of trips with my jeep and this one will more then pass slow people unlike the v6 w the 6spd. .....

What a great looking rig!

Congrats! I have a 2020 JLUR MT. If I had it to do over, I would have gone with the Auto trans. Probably would still have stayed with the 3.6l at the time as I was leery of the newer engine, but I am with you on the trans for sure. Today, maybe would consider giving the 2.0 a go as it's proven reliable.

Very nice. I saw that one a few times on my way into town. Shoot me a message if you want to go over Mt Hebo or the trails around. I'm in.
