Considering used Wrangler 392 - thoughts?

I saw it first hand on a friends 392 Scatpack.

Yeah, I've not heard of that. There was a similar issue that was pretty well known on 5.7s and happened to my buddy's Ram though.

Must be talking about the potential future problems due to the potential cylinder deactivation system.

That part is stupid. I look forward to the day I remove my PCM for its unlock and get a tune loaded to stop that BS.

 

[BULL]

Will this be yer first Wrangler ever?

IF we actually get one, but it doesn't seem to be impressing the wife, and being that it will replace her old Durango, it doesn't seem likely to happen.

@Speedy! Thoughts on your experience being tied to the fact that it was a rental vehicle?

There is also that other engine option to consider

She sounds like mine. Everything is great with the Durango or in our case a Grand, but they want the same stuff in a smaller package? It does not exist for under $100k . A used Grand Cherokee before they screwed them up?
