Well I actually was planning on getting one spring/summer anyway but if theres a more powerful engine then even better, if not I'll take what I can get as long as it's a Wrangler.

If I understand engines correctly torque is what you need to get you over an obstacle, through that mud, ect. Wouldn't you rather have more useable torque than horsepower?

Im not about to start over either...plus, im sure there are kinks that will need to be worked out for the first couple of model years with the new setup...maybe by then I will have enough miles to need a new Jeep

Definitely a newer and modern engine, was about time.
I hope it is a solid engine, and it doesn't come with "newborn" issues.
I wish I can afford it, but I will stick with my outdated 3.8L for a while...
If I could I would get it, but honestly I'm in love with my Jk now, It would be hard to break up with it.
