Yeah, honestly I needed two lifted, V8, 4x4s like I need a hole in the head. I almost bought an '08 Wrangler when I sold the Grand Cherokee BUT I'm hearing the 3.7s are as bad if not worse than the 4.7s with the head issues - not to mention the new Pentastar is having failed heads like crazy.
My new daily driver is what a DD is supposed to be, a gas sipper and reliable. 10/100,000 powertrain, 5/60,000 bumper to bumper and free oil changes for life up to 4x a year. Plugs and tranny are 100,000 mile change intervals and the dealer had a $99 deal for nitrogen in the tires that includes five years of tire warranty replacement, road side service and even hotel re-imbursement if I have a flat more than 50 miles from home - plus free tire rotations/nitrogen adding and inspections once a year for those five years. So for 5 years I'll have NO expense with this car except for gas.
Was a shame that the shop fucked up my head(s) though, upon completion of the rebuild and giving it a little time for the rings to seat we pulled compression and it was 190 PSI on EVERY cylinder. Had the shop not screwed up this rebuild would have probably outlasted me!
