I really like the color. The color looks a little different if its sunny out vs overcast. Her last two vehicles were black. The black looked great when the vehicle was very clean but they were hot and showed every mark.
I am really glad she got this Jeep. Her last Jeep only had 36,000 miles and never gave us a bit of trouble. This one has a small direct injected turbo 4 cylinder engine. It's only a 2.0 liter. I was hesitant when we first started looking at it but after driving it I was sold. Small engines have come a long way. When I turned 16, my dad gave me his 1981 Ford Fairmont. It had a 2.3 liter 4 cylinder engine with a 4 speed stick shift transmission. It had 85 horsepower.
This jeep with the 2.0 has 260 horsepower and an 8 speed automatic. Engines sure have come a lot way. I have to unlearn my old way of thinking which has always been "there's no replacement for displacement" when it comes to engines.
