New 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport Altitude 4x4

Nice! The only problem with that Jeep is that is has no dirt or mud on it. I hope you will be taking care of that issue shortly ... :p

Wow, a manual trans! I wonder how many kids under age 25 can drive a manual. I'm 50, I don't think I've driven a manual since I was 16 or 17 myself. At 6'7" and size 14/15 shoes, I find a manual difficult to navigate. Leg room is already a problem.

Believe me, the 3.6L V6 coupled with a 6 speed manual transmission is HARD to find. Dealers know that they’ll have no problems selling the 3.6L V6 coupled with their 8 speed automatic transmissions so all of the soccer moms can drive a Jeep. The 8 speed automatics shift a lot…not for your benefit…but for gas mileage benefit.

I’ve always liked the ability to choose my gear, especially in ice/snow.

It’s my wife’s. She drives about 7 miles a day. Lol

Thing’s that aren’t on the window sticker are: 3:73HD transmission, stainless steel exhaust from the manifold to the tailpipe, and an extra battery (under the normal battery) to run the computer and various inputs, thus the 220 amp alternator (which is enormous).
 
Are you going to be doing offroad with the Jeep? I've had mine 12 months and I've been on 4 trips to do trails, that's what I bought it for. I have 2 more trips scheduled for this year.

Most of my driving life I've driven manual transmissions, my current primary vehicle for the past 11 years has a 6-speed manual. But the Jeep that I bought last year has the V6 and automatic. Negotiating ledges on the side of a mountain I didn't want an extra pedal to deal with.

Wife just drives it to/from work & grocery shopping.

If we go off-roading or rock climbing we use our Honda Rancher 420’s.
