That’s a wrap for the 3.8L V6 – Now the Pentastar

In an article posted by the Toledo blade it was reported that workers at the Chrysler’s Trenton North engine plant built their last 3.8-liter engine this month, marking the end of 20 years of production of the powerplant that for years drove vehicles as varied as the Chrysler Fifth Avenue and certain versions of the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans.

The 2012 Jeep Wrangler is set to come equipped with the more powerful and economic 3.6L Pentastar V6 coupled to a 5 speed automatic.
