New Jeep Wrangler!

I just read this in a boat magazine, talking about the new Jeep Wrangler...

Quote:
The 202 hp 3.8 liter V6 hustled this 8,300 pound rig (Jeep + boat) to 60 mph in only 18.9 seconds.
LOL At the same weight I'm WELL above 100 mph in 18.9 seconds and get better fuel mileage to boot!

(11 mpg towing)
