Questions about 2013 manual vs automatic

[Linebacker]

Bought a '12 auto JKUR. It's my 4th Jeep and first w/auto and I'd buy another. Drive both and decide. The auto has a little more resale in today's market. I love the extra control in hill climbing, but that's about it. On the other hand, a two door with 4.10's and a six-speed manual is quick! Heck, now I'm confused. Good luck! Either way it's your Jeep and you'll love it.:yup:

2013 Manual VS Auto

I have driven both 2013 JKs, and I decided on the Auto. I have always been a die hard Manual guy; My last DD Jeep (83 CJ7) was a manual, and after owning that I swore it was manual Jeeps forever. With that said, the 2013 Wranglers have a great, strong 5 speed auto with the option for 'manual' upshifts and downshifts. Its convenience is great for daily driving, etc., and its great off road as well. Of course, I am in awe of the whole Jeep because I went from my leaf sprung CJ to something that is much smoother, worlds faster and stronger, hell, I even have a radio now :shock: ! If I had the money for a dedicated off road Jeep, I would probably still get the manual, just for the interaction with the vehicle, but for my DD, its auto for me from now on. Good luck with your purchase!
