I never regret the six-speed. I love it. I got stuck in headlight deep water and almost sucked water into my clutch but I still love it. I wouldn't have it any other way.

Absolutely...positively.....Zero, zip, nuda, Zilch regrets on the 6 speed.

Only issue I had was the Throw out bearings going....squealed like crazy until I got it repaired.....but I won't get into the repair the Dealership did....but finally 3 visits fixed the issues.

Drawbacks of a 6 speed maybe extreme rush hour/crawling city traffic, rock crawling and of course getting stuck in mud or dirty water.

We test drove an auto and 6 speed when we looked at our 08....and it's a fair difference in response from the line with a 6 speed compared to an auto.

But a programmer can change that for an auto.

hmm..im an auto fan. Hangin off a cliff in Moab getting ready to roll over and not jerking the rig around makes me glad i had my auto. My leg would be rubber by the end o the day doing that every weekend.

Thanks for all the positive feedback. I decided to go with the Unlimited Rubi w/6 spd in Detonator Yellow. Right now she's sitting on a lot down in Coopersville and only has 200 miles on her. My salesman said they can go and get her tomorrow and I hope to have the sale completed by Friday.

For me, a Jeep is a Willys. And a Willys is manual.
Manual is stronger, and you have a better control off-road.
Manual is cool
I like all the noises of this manual transmission.

Only manual for me

2 extra gears really help the power-train out.....plus...who wants to drive an automatic? ....go with the six speed
