Try using the search function to find a suitable thread to complain about the transmission, instead of hijacking this thread.

Can we get back to talking about my bottom!!!!!! Well you know what I mean.
I think you all convinced me to drive the Jeep. The coolness factor alone is enough but the feedback on the seat comfort on long hauls and mygig cinched it. Not sweatin the MPG too much, hell I knew it wasnt great when I bought it. And driving a JK instead of a minivan is priceless.

I'm going to be driving from PA to NC on Rte 81 next month. I'm glad to hear that the seats are comfortable for long drives. I'm hoping I can keep up on all those steep climbs with my 3.21 gears without having to downshift all the time.

Well its not nearly as long as some of your trips but 5 1/2 hours.
I didnt like the extreme
ly crazy flappin on the highway and hopefully that TSB foam install will help. The gas well pretty much sucked ass. I also have the 3.21 and i did have to downshift but not crazy like went from 6 to 5th and we were ok. Overall I loved it. Was fun to drive. Thank god I didnt buy a Mini
Cooper!

Colorado Trip
We got our Rubicon 3 days before leaving on our previously scheduled vacation to Colorado. We now have over 4,000 miles on our Jeep, most of it from this trip. We traveled lots of back roads in the mountains checking our ghost towns, old mines and part of the Alpine Scenic Loop road. I have to admit the seats were a little firm but using an 18" square of sheepskin with the fur on took care of that problem. It was a trouble free trip. We were very comfortable and both agree that this was our best vacation ever!
