On the rpms issue Iīm afraid to tell you thatīs normal for this beast. Itīs a damn shame considering such a big motor running at such high revs at highway speeds unecessarily. It transaltes into real bad mpg, (granted we didnt buy it as an economy car but nonetheless). It desperatly needs a 6th gear/overdrive. Thatīs the first thing I would change. timster 04-26-2007, 06:29 PM congrat on the new Jeep! tommy25000 04-26-2007, 07:08 PM Congrats!
