I think the JK has enough power for day to day use. When towing a trailer though, I really notice how underpowered it is.

OK, now that I got my own wheels back let me be clear that I am not complaining, the jeep is what I wanted and bought. If I wanted horsepower or a fast car I would have bought a vet or Viper. I am just saying that comparing The 3.8 v6 Jk Vs. the 3.8 v6 Caravan there is a big difference. I also noticed the skinny peddle is alot harder to push on the JK (for off road). The transition is smooth not jerky, and the power is delayed a bit. = Fly by wire??

There are so many variables and differences at play it isn't possible to compare the two directly.
