Oh, and on our '03 Rubicon, it's 4.0L inline 6 pitched a rod out the side of the block at 115,000 miles, going up a highway grade and "driving it like a white man". This was in 2nd gear of it's auto trans. Impeccable maintenance on it since we bought it new.
I'm just not sold on inline 6s, of course I'm not into slow-going rock crawling. I like to be able to have some acceleration, like getting onto a freeway without getting rear-ended by an 18-wheeler!! Give me a V8 any day!
Bummer... I’ve had over 250k on a few, beating the hell out of them, neglecting oil changes, and just being a douchebag 🤷🏼♂️
V8’s are cool, I’ll probably put a hemi in my JK if I can manage to blow it up.
