I have a 2018 JLUR with 37s and 3.6 . I’ve noticed in several situations where I’m trying to climb a hill in loose sandy stuff my Jeep just cannot keep any good wheel speed going. I was in some really loose volcanic gravel this weekend and whenever I’d try to go up anything even with traction control off as soon as the computer started to sense to much of a load on the engine it would bog right down and the trans would not downshift in to a lower gear either. Is was really annoying. I was able to do a little better in 4 low if I manually shifted it but it doesn’t seem like I should have to resort to that if I’m trying to go fast. Has anyone else noticed this and is it simply a case of not enough power, is there something wrong with my Jeep, or does the computer purposely cut timing and throttle when you put the Jeep in a position it doesn’t like. Here some pics of the type of stuff I was driving in.
