Jeep Model Goes From Hot To Hotter; Where is the H4?
 
Bradford Wernle - Automotive News - July 16, 2007 - 12:01 am
 
TOLEDO, Ohio - The Jeep Wrangler Unlimited four-door has gone from hot to hotter.
 
The Chrysler group's Toledo Supplier Park is cranking out 600 vehicles per day. Of those, 82 percent are four-door Unlimiteds and 18 percent are two-door units.
 
"Demand for the hardtop four-door is much higher than we expected," said Cynthia Sidoti, Toledo Supplier Park plant manager.
 
In June, Jeep sold 10,952 Wranglers, the best June results ever for the Wrangler, according to Darryl Jackson, Chrysler vice president of U.S. sales.
 
Dealers say they've had a difficult time getting the top-of-the-line Rubicon version of the Wrangler, which is trail-ready and has Chrysler's MyGIG entertainment and information system that includes navigation.
 
"The market is overwhelming," Sidoti said.
 
One change that dealers will notice immediately is a new Wrangler color. It's Detonator Yellow, which is fitting for one of Jeep's most explosive-selling vehicles.

Earlier Chrysler reported the mix was about 60 percent four-door and 40 percent two-door. The four-door Wrangler is available in hard- and soft-top versions.

When are we gonna start seeing those at the dealerships? I want one! I just can't decide on the color. Why in the world didn't they make a white sahara in the 4 door??
 
I might end up going with the Flame red X with all the Sahara options. The black fender flares look pretty good on the red. I usually like the look of the matching flares - that's one reason I have a 2- door Sahara now - but the red with black looks pretty good. I just wish the red didn't have quite so much of an orange tint. It's not a pure red in my opinion.
 
Sorry, didn't mean to go on and on. I do look forward to seeing the 08's on the lots!

Funny! I just talked to someone at at Discount Tire store near my house that was going on and on about that tire. That's actually what we have on my husband's Aviator. I knew we had Fortera's on it, but I just realized they were Silent Armor. I might have to consider those. I remember when we got them on the Aviator, I was amazed at how smooth they were. I hated the looks at first though, since they were so different than the original Michelins that were on it. I like the look now.

It got my attention. I would hate to have a semi on my tail and the dreaded DW occurs. I have had 3 Jeeps but this was the first wobble situation. Did you get your rotation and balance at the dealer or at another location. I hate to go to the dealer but I never had a problem when they did the rotate and balance. Its OK now (with the lower psi) but still a little shakey. If it happens again then off to the dealer. Go Easy, John

The site I was thinking of is
http://ptheune.net/~pir/photos/Jeeps/Tires/Selector/index.htm
Shows TJ with different tires and lifts
If you Google "phteune" you should see the site as "tire selector"
