A little late, but welcome!

People say the same thing about the KJ that it's gutless, sluggish, etc.
I don't know why though, Jen and I find it goes just fine.

Your new Liberty is good choice
I don't understand what the sluggish part means.Not enough power,torque ??!! I am yet to be convinced by that.my 08 Liberty Sport has a healthy 3.7L V6 and produces just about same power as a Wrangler ! In fact it's better suited for towing because of it's wheelbase.And, with 210ft-lbs of torque and 3.73:1 gearing ratio this thing can pull,climb,water-forde & ofcourse ride thru snow.

Welcome. It's no v8 but it is not sluggish.

It's only sluggish when the little old ladies in lab coats that work for Consumer Reports drive it.

its not sluggish, MPG isn't great but its a jeep not a prius. enjoy your new KK

thanx guys for the welcome and also this hurricane is about to hit me this weekend so hopefully my liberty will get me through anything i need to get through

AL23CT welcome and hope you make it though the hurricane ok.

Sorry but I feel that the Libby is very sluggish. Maybe its fine for city use but in the country where the speed limits are 55 mph and two lane highways with limited pass zones, this engine has a hard time filling a very tall order IMO.
