Not sure why the dang 2L makes an appearance in every friggin thread on this forum. The question is on the 3.6 people! Focus.
It's because so many 2.0l owners have little man syndrome.

I was reading about the issues with metal inside the 3.6 . I have a 2018 jl unlimited with the 3.6. I would like to know the mileage of the first oil change and all after that,also was the engine broken in properly. I would like to hear feedback from the people who have had this issue with their 3.6
The only issue I've had with my 3.6 in the last 35,758 miles is the water pump... Aside from self inflicted chaos.

I've seen others have issues, but keep in mind that wherever there is a concentrated group of people with the same configurations, there will be a trail (No badges) of concentrated issues. The sky is not falling. the 3.6 has been pretty damned dependable for me. My dads 2.0, not so much.

Hmm, I'm going to have to do everything in my power to ensure the wife doesn't realize that someone's platform is disallowing my F.A.R.T.ing. I can't have that kind of opposition in my own household.
The opposition to F.A.R.T would be Stopping Hazardous Inflation of Tires

"F.A.R.T. isn't always done in a safe and sane manner, so the grassroots organization S.H.I.T. was created combat the dangers of F.A.R.T."

I, for one, think S.H.I.T. is a messy proposition

...wouldn't little man syndrome mean they would have gotten the bigger motor?
No. It means they compensate by having the bigger mouth.

You're thinking of small D syndrome. There is some overlap sometimes.

I'm just happy to know my penis has spent a non-zero amount of time in your thoughts

In my experience those with little man syndrome will punch you in the mouth and fuck you up while the big man is still talking attempting to be intimidating.
