i love the 5.9. the newer style is probably a nicer Jeep, especially handling wise, but i love the 5.9 for its rareness and the way its such a brute. Mine has 74k on it and it cost me 12k. Quality is good, but they are very truckish. this is my 2nd 98, and I love them. I ran a 15.4 in my old one with the 5.2L. I'll be interested to see what this one will do. I live near the Maine border in Wakefield, but I work right in Wolfeboro.
