does it have e-torque or a silly little cranking battery?

Looks like I will keep my manual 20 jlur 6cyl with the Genesis dual.

Don't even know if I can put a 2nd battery in there. Need more details on bay, tranny and such.

Does that price include 35's or lift?
Opinion only. No lift but 35s and other standard features/add ons. So even though option is $9500 it will be around $15k over starting base Rubi. Still a good price. :like:

Why did they go with the 6.4 instead of the 5.7? Feel like the 5.7 would be a lot cheaper as an option and could have a higher take rate. I guess they are going for halo car / hellcat/ etc type thing with this.

Overland? WTF?!?! This is NOT for fucking overlanding! This is for jumping shit and peeling out. It’s for picking up 23 year old blondes and waxing 5.0s. It’s for running Prius’ off the road and pissing off liberals and commies. It’s for guys who get BJs on the first date, people who love America and old glory. It’s the vehicle you take to Las Vegas or to get a new tattoo. This vehicle is for nothing short of full sends.

But it’s not, and never will be, for fucking overlanding! I swear to god if someone puts a damn refrigerator in the back of one of these and mounts some traction boards on the spare tire....I will come to your house and reap vengeance on their hipster ass
better start hunting me down. Rocklanding it is with the 392

every JL you can wish for
FWIW,

Depending on how allocation goes, our store will be under invoice. IF Jeep accepts tread lightly/affiliate membership discounts on this vehicle we will honor is for 2% of invoice amount.

Sticking a 392 HEMI in a Wrangler. Awesome. I wonder if Jeep engineers figured out how to effectively defrost the front windshield yet.
Or have the instrument cluster provide an accurate outdoor temperature.

That said, I was one who was POSITIVE the 392 would never happen. I'll still believe it when I see it but I hope they prove me wrong

They likely don't want a high take rate.

The hit to the CAFE numbers would be terrible if they swap too many pstars for 5.7s.

Also probably the reason it'll be limited to the Rubicon and Mojave, if the poster above is to be believed.

Halo vehicle and bragging rights until the I6 is ready for multiple power applications.
