Hi wrenchin hobo, It is a real pity that Jeep isn't continueing the diesel, over here in Aus diesel 4x4's outsell petrol about 3 to 1. You get better low down grunt and twice the distance for the same amount of fuel, which is important over here as there can be huge distances between fuel stops. Also carrying extra fuel in conainers is a lot safer when it is diesel.
Aside from that it is just a lot better having maximum torque from 1500rpm, makes for great offroading.
