My 2012 was a 4.1 Rubi as well. And I had the hill assist turned off day one. It's all personal preference, I just expected something smoother in a vehicle in the $40k range even if its a wrangler. IMO the pentastar doesn't pair well with the manual transmission especially with the DBW hesitation. Or like you said maybe those are just excuses to cover for my laziness...

It's not a permanent disable. Meaning you can switch it on or off at will. Just repeat the same steering wheel dance.
