I got a 2008 GMC Seirra 4x4..Very nice truck..I really liked the Jeep,but I am a contractor and it just wasn't working out on a day to day basis..

Got a great price on trade and they wanted to deal on the GMC..I couldn't pass it up..

Good call. I don't see how a 2-dr JK could work for a typical contracting business, regardless of HP. Enjoy your new truck!

Default It is what it is

I can't say it any better then the guys at Thetruthaboutcars.com did.

All ’07 Wranglers are now blessed with Chrysler’s 3.8-liter V6, good for 215hp and 245ft-lbs torque. While its genesis might not inspire much joy in Mudtown (Dodge Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country?), the pushrod powerplant is simple enough to take the requisite beating and gives Wrangler improved torque at higher revs; it can get out of its own way when asked. Zero to sixty? Top speed? About as important to Wrangler lovers as a Porsche Cayenne's towing capacity to its target audience.

It's a JEEP, not a race car or a truck. plenty of horsepower for what it is. Everyone is entitled to their opinoins, just tired of all the horsepower bs is all.

I always say that a mans first vehicle has to be a truck then you can add to your stable after that. I could never be without my truck and I don't even use it for work...

i hear you on horsepower man. i have 4500 miles on mine so far and its very hard for me to get used to not having any power. i live in an area that has lots of hills and this thing downshifts alot. i had these same tires on my 05 gmc with the 5.3 v8 and it wasnt even like they were on it. i had no problems outta the 34,000 miles i owned the truck and this jeep has had several problems. i really like the jeep just wishing they would fix a few things and a V8 in it would make me feel alot better about it
