The 3.0 isn’t really a bad engine it’s actually pretty smooth and i avg about 20-22 mpg in city and hwy. But it’s just that when starting you kinda need to push a little bit more gas since it only has 222 lb-ft of torque. I suspect that 3.6 will be a little bit more faster than the 3.0 (0-60 in 7.8 sec for the 3.0 and about 6.5 seconds for 3.6)
