Should 150k miles deter me from buying this 2011 JK?

[QUOTE="MacGuyver, post: 433889, member: 18877"] I've changed both plugs on both the 3.8 and 3.6 and the 3.8 is tons easier. With the 3.8, plug and wire change is an hour or two, with the 3.6 it is a major operation, the whole top of the engine need to come off. The only thing easier to do on the 3.6 is the oil filter, which is tied directly into the oil cooler, which you may need to replace by removing the top of the engine... That being said, if I got the opportunity to move to a 3.6 I would. Right now I'm perfectly fine with my 2009 and it can do anything I need it to. [/QUOTE]
