OP
Out of 5 Jeeps, I've only owned 1 auto transmission and that was my favorite one, it just made cruising so nice. It was also red, I would not 2nd guess this decision at all. If nothing else at all, the TJ has better A/C, suspension, softtop design and round headlights, lol
I would expect the consensus on a TJ forum to be the TJ I guess It's nice to hear that people enjoy the auto though, because that's one of my biggest question marks...not knowing if I'll like the auto or not!
