Over the past 3 years i have spent about $2,000 in restoring an old 93' jeep wrangler adding on several performance parts and doing some tinkering with the engine. This little four cylinder, with an original factory 130 hp now puts out a respective 155 horses at the wheels, and an amazing 23 mpg city and 27 highway. (If you havn't tried a K&N i swear it is the best thing you could ever put in a car) A standard 5- speed, yes, but the EPA supposedly claims it only got around 18 and 21 which is about what it had when i first got it. Now we all know that electric power provides enormous amounts of torque so for offroading this could mean using zero gas. Nothing, nadda, zippo! Not to mention what it could add to the gas milage potential just on the road. The Wrangler is probably one of the lightest vehicles out there out there. Now if chrystler happens to see this PLEASE DO NOT PUT ONE OF THOSE CRAP TOYOTA PRIUS ENGINES IN IT! The 2.4L and the 4.0L are just fine.
