Default Things I Like Better on my 2013 vs 2010

Old: 2010 2dr w/auto 3.73

New: 2013 4dr w/6spd 3.73

1. I can actually pull out in traffic and beat red lights.

2. Still mileage like a Hemi, but way more power than a Prius. Still get better mileage with the weight of a 4dr and 33s.

3. Got the space of a 4dr back so I can carry people and gear.

4. Sleeping in the 2dr was not comfortable. It will be better in the 4dr next time that happens.

I'm sure there are more reasons.

You forgot the New style seats and the updated interior. Also you'll be more prone to multi point turns on the trail and high centering too. Congrats on the new Jeep though I do like the Commando Green.

There are a million difference between a 2010 and a 2013.

A major (2011) and minor (2013) interior change.
A different engine (2012)
A different automatic tranny (2012)
A slight adjustment to the 6th gear on the manual tranny (2012)
Larger rear window (2011)
Optional colored hardtops (2011).
Different rims for the Sahara and Rubi (2013).
The Freedom panels changed (2011)

There have been so many changes in the interior that you can't really compare them.

Biggest worthy change is the engine also the bigger rear window which is just like the older Wranglers. Should have been like that from beginning

Other then the interior materials feeling better it defiantly doesn't look better. This is a Wrangler not a Fiat.
I never liked the TJ cause of the interior and was thrilled with how the JK turned out but now its becoming a car again.
