I've got an 08'. With a V6.../ 6 speed manual.
So far, I've got no complaints.
I drove it up to Colorado. Had it buried up to the head lights.
And she was still, looking for a tree to climb...
The only trouble I had, was crossing a frozen creek...
Trying to climb the other side, was a challenge.
But then.... ain't nothing good on ice...
Especially the Toyota following me... But, I've got a winch....
4.0 or 4.2 are the best engines Jeep ever had. I’ve had YJ, JK, CJ’s snd so on. I currently run a 81 CJ5 4.2L and it’s in almost pristine condition. I live 40 miles from SPI and my wife hates the fact that I won’t drive it on the beach. But living down here I’ve seen what one time on the beach can do.
If your looking for a beach runner, get an old TJ with a 4.0L and it’ll do that just fine.

In my opinion the TJ was the best jeep.
Especially a Rubicon with 5.13 gears…
How far is you commute to work? How big a fella are you? I ask because the TJs are great but not for everyone when it comes to daily drivers. Very compact inside once the doors are on so can be a tight fit for some. I've had YJs, TJs, and JKs when I get another it will be a JK 2012 or newer.
