Some Turbo thoughts?
I have a loaner '19 JLU Sahara 2 liter I guess Turbo just like my 2018 JLUS except for a few options. I do have a 3.6 V6, don't think I'll trade!
Turbo is OK, seems perhaps better gas mileage at least city stuff? V6 seems smoother and better pick up, normal stars at least. until the Turbo kicks in, makes some sense I guess, you can tell that it is a Turbo! ESS seems smoother on the 2019 Turbo, perhaps they've updated? However still not as smooth ESS start as our Cherokee TH almost can't even hear that start!.
I think if I had it to do over I'd still go V6! By the way the steering isn't a problem with my 2018 but I think they've made some improvement in it?? This of course is short term, 2 or 300 miles. It is a Twill soft top and surprisingly quiet!!
Go Jeep!!!
