Default New here and questions!

So I'm shopping for a JK Unlimited Rubicon and hoping to buy within the next few weeks. I've been doing some research on the Pentastar V6 and I've come across some complaints of some ticking engines and heads needed to be replaced.

Before buying, just wondering if this is a widespread issue that's going on and if anyone here is having those types of problems.

Thanks!

Thanks! How ya likin' the Dozer? I'm probably going to go with Silver, just because it's light and won't show as much dirt or flaws in the paint, not to mention, it'd probably just be cooler during the summer months, too...

It's been impossible to find anything in my area, so I'll probably wind up ordering.

Good to hear!

To the person with the Dozer, I can only imagine it's quite easy to find! Haha!
