I'd like to know what you guys think would be best for my particular situation. I do a LOT of driving, 40-60k mi a year and the vast majority of that is over Snoqualmie pass on I-90 and Manastash over I-82 between McChord AFB/Tacoma, WA and Yakima, WA. It's not a particularly steep pass but my girl's YJ has to down shift into 3rd gear doing 45mph a couple of times with both of us in it. So I'd like to know what you guys think would be the best jeep to drive a lot of on-road passes as a daily driver that will see weekly of road-trail use?
I was thinking that an 05-06 with the 4.0 and the 6-spd would be a good one since the 6spd gets marginally better fuel economy. However, I don't know if the stock gearing will be able to pull the pass.
Thanks for your help in advance!
