Anyone seen the new "Jeep"? The one based off the car platform?

Nothing like having AC when your out wheeling in 90 deg!

Wow, got some goodies on there huh? How was your mileage with the stock ZJ with the 5.2? I've always wondered if I should've looked for a 5.2 instead of the 4.0. Of course, the 5.9 would've been beastly. I see a few of those around here and they make me drool.

Ya, I like to be different. There is some doubt until they see the Zj does everything a Wrangler does, and with AC and leather seats.
My mpg numbers are with the lift. I never drove it without one.

Re: Jeep Grand Cherokee's
That's not too bad at all for MPG. I only drive a couple of miles a day, so my city mileage sucks. But on the highway, I can cruise around 80 and get 20 MPG. I wonder how it'd do with a V8...
