Every New Car You Can Still Buy with a Manual Transmission

Not on the list, but Jeep Wranglers are still available with a manual transmission.

I love the JK Wrangler six speed but hate the engine. Chrysler ditched the AMC 242 engine, so 2007 models onward use that crap V-6 minivan engine with absolutely no torque.

I beg your pardon. The only reason I switched to automatic was 8 years of inching along in metro Atlanta rush hour traffic driving one of the two grey market 5 spd Mercedes sports sedans I owned. Im sure not buying a new jeep 4wd with all terrains in automatic. 😆

My Wrangler is an '05 TJ so I have the AMC straight six. Lots of torque.

;-) Thanks! Yup, almost bit off more than I could chew. Great thing was, my first car was a four on the floor and I drove manuals for many a year, until my wife said she was getting too old to mess with a manual and wanted auto’s from now own. My last was a Jeep Rubicon. That was a nice jeep.
