I just took delivery of my first Jeep and same options as you and colour except I opted for the manual transmission. I went with the v6 thinking it was a more proven drivetrain and it was one of the appeals of the vehicle. So many car manufacturers are going to these more complex drivetrains and turbo 4s that I just see spending $$$$ on in the future. I think most who have bought the 2.0 or 4xe probably like their choices too but I just donāt see them being as reliable long term. I plan on keeping mine a long time.Hereās a couple pics of the new Jeep
Anvil Willyās with hardtop (also have soft top), convenience, tech, and 3.6L/8AT.
I also just took delivery of a M/T Wrangler with tech, convenience, alpine and safety packages. I am loving it. I find the gearing a little off, making use of the lower gears more with 5th and 6th hardly ever. I guess I am going to be using lots of gas. Maybe it will just take some getting use to. I also have that hiccup or burp usually between 3th and 4th gear. Itās a bit annoying but it sounds like many manual owners have the same issue. Hopefully a software update will fix this.
Once I kind of figured out the gearing I found that fuel consumption really wasn't that bad. In fact if you watch the eco meter you actually use more fuel in a higher gear at a lower speed than you do in a lower gear at a higher speed. I basically use 1-3 around town up to about 50, 4th is my highway cruising gear for about 50-65, and only if I'm going 70 on a flat freeway do I hit 5th. I have used 6th a few times but it's for like 80+ on a flat freeway. In 6th if there is a 0.0000000001 % grade the Jeep can't pull it LOL....
Congrats! I'm averaging 19.5 mpg which is better than expected with the Falken MTs.
I donāt have the safety pack, but I donāt think thereās any difference between safety pack and non safety pack for that module; all Jeeps (of a certain trim level??) have adaptive cruise and auto braking regardless of whether or not they have the safety pack.
The adaptive cruise box doesn't rattle on my 2022. I'd take it to the dealer, but there are some threads here where people stuff something between it and the windshield.
Cool, that's all I needed to know! Glad you've liked your three Jeeps!
100% yes. By FAR the most annoying thing on my Jeep. It's so annoying. I have to push on it every morning to stop it. At first I took off the little panel and thought that was making the sound, but it didn't help. I realized it was the whole module moving against the window. I am debating a way to solve it still. I think it just needs to wobble less. I was going to pull it apart then just opted not to, but you got me a little charged up now that you mentioned it!
My dealer is useless. Their favorite response - "It's a Jeep, what do you expect".
This thread has the solution. Pick up some acoustic foam for $10 and stuff it under the rubber seal between the adaptive cruise control and windshield.
Understated truth, this.
If there's a single pinch point that has recurringly made the rounds since I joined this forum ~4 years ago, it's the wonky functioning of the HVAC system in those trims where any of the related controls migrated away from the switch panel and to the head unit.
I have both Falken MTs that are mud rated and a fully optioned Rubicon 2 Door. Your main issue could be fixed by dropping the windshield and seeing if anything is inside the advanced safety optical shelf. I have pulled a lot of debris from areas you would not expect, from previous owner experiencing trails top less and door less. Though they never dropped the windshield... but had cut the bungies to their sun shade top, which pulled back in between the windshield frame and structure. Once dropped cut bungies with their hooks fell everywhere.
