^^ Agreed. That is a good price you're aiming for and the extra fuel is definitely worth it.
I have a 2 dr and frankly there just isn't enough fuel. That is my only gripe about the JK petrols. 3.8 or 3.6 or V8....there just isn't enough fuel haha
Thanks guys, what are they like for towing. I have a camper about 1100kg and when I used my old JK manual it wasnt very pleasant to tow. It seemed the gearing was all wrong....
Yes, the manual sport has shocking gearing even for general driving let alone towing!! I tow a similar weight camper with mine and it sucks.
The Rubi with its lower gearing (4.1 diffs) and an auto will tow it with ease.
The lower gearing will help and it'll be fine for slower speeds but just don't expect to be in a hurry to get places. I had an auto 3.8 Rubi JKU as a hire car a few years ago and was quite impressed with how it drove at slower speeds. The initial pick up was sharper than my CRD auto due to not having turbo lag etc BUT it was a bit asthmatic at freeway speeds. Can't image that's going to improve any with a tonne of camper hanging off the back.
