I saw a 2X4 Jeep about tree months ago on eBay... lifted with 35s.. the guy had to repeat 100 times 2X4, THIS JEEP is 2X4.... !!!!! Because it doesn't make sense I guess... kind of like an airplane without wings... LOL

Do they still offer 2X4 in 2010 ???

Seriously... I can understand someone who would buy a 2X4 Jeep to save money, and because he likes the looks... But as far as Chrysler goes, marketing wise... I don't get it... Do they still put the "Trail Rated" badge on it ???

Just my opinion, of course, but auto's are undergeared from the factory. Add taller tires, and this engine simply doesn't have the grunt for pulling heavy loads uphill. Then add the loss of traction from wet tires and a slick ramp, and you're asking people to help push...
