Hello all! I've been around the forum for the last few months (and increasingly more so recently as I anticipate my '23 JLUS order, haha) and I've read many threads about the various engine options (which greatly helped me make my decision), but I haven't found an answer for this particular question.
I ultimately chose the 2.0L engine for two reasons-- the extra torque, and also to avoid the "eTorque" system that comes with the 3.6L. (which apparently used to be only on the 2.0L)
I plan to daily drive this Wrangler for at least ~5 years, so in my mind less complexity = less things to fail over time.
My question is-- will my Jeep have just a single 12V battery like every other car, or will it have an auxiliary/ESS/48v battery somewhere I have to maintain/keep up with? I'm very technical by nature and I want to learn as much as I can about this vehicle so I can take care of it properly.
In case it matters, I ordered it with both safety groups, the LED lighting group, and the Trailer/HD Electrical group.
Thanks in advance!
