The seats are not as comfortable as my trucks seats were. They are pretty basic but so is all of the interior of the Wrangler. It is made to get dirty, not look good or be comfortable. see full Jeep Wrangler review |

Still small, despite the increased size of the vehicle. see full Jeep Wrangler review |

Not as much low RPM torque as TJ and seems totally unfit for passing slightly slower traffic unless a long stretch is available. see full Jeep Wrangler review |
