Nice!
There's a 2017 Rubicon 4dr near me with a 6spd and 45k miles, it's been listed for a little over a week. Manual transmissions don't sell fast in newer jeeps. I'm really tempted to trade mine for it.
Bye bye V8s

With all the mall crawlers and pavement princesses, it's damn near impossible to find a manual around here.
I've wheeled/rock crawled with an auto. It is much easier, but lacks the cool factor.
There is truth to that, specifically in crawling scenarios. Have to shift a gear on an incline? Gonna lose a little momentum if you're not quick with the pedals.
Another place I worry is when I'm stuck partway up a hill and have to get out to run the winch cable. Don't want it popping out of gear. My parking brake needs a tune up and I don't trust it to hold right now.
I like manual transmissions because I like having control of my gears. Barely use my brakes in town. It's nice being able to downshift and get around someone. It's a Jeep, not a sportscar, but downshifting is a small joy of mine.
ah yeah. i do love my manual in my car. plus, with older vehicles it feels a lot more secure to me, because of being able to downshift to slow down in a brake loss situation, or push start if the battery shits.
i haven't rock crawled a whole lot, i should have more when i was in CO but the wife wasn't into it. hill descent is a great feature though, and i like how much control there is with the 8 gears going around in 4lo even in my Michigan woods.
it is kind of interesting how many other makes and models that use the ZF 8 speed too.

I like that better than the Rally Fighter. Price tag is 3x-4x what the base Rally Fighter was. And I don't think the Rally Fighter was 4WD..?
