The price reference is the median of configuration medians, not the median of all active cars. Each configuration has equal weight. Configurations with at least 3 priced listings are used when available; otherwise the reference uses the configurations with a recorded price. Model years, mileage and condition vary.

Where the 4.0L 6-cyl sits in the Nitro engine lineup
Every engine family this model was sold with, ordered by size. The bar spans the model years recorded for it; the price is a reference across priced configurations, with each configuration weighted equally. Older engines look cheaper because the cars are older — overlapping years alone do not match the vehicles by age, trim, mileage or condition.
2007–2011 The 3.7L 6-cyl configuration price reference is about $744 less — $5,950 against $6,694. These references cover each family's full set of priced configurations; they are not recalculated for the overlapping years or matched cars.

Which Nitro years got a 4.0L 6-cyl engine
Every model year this engine was fitted to, newest first. The bar is how much of the family's VIN volume sits in that year — long bars are the years this engine was everywhere.
VIN counts come from our decode of the model's build patterns, not from live listings. A year link opens the full Nitro report for that year — every engine of the model, not just this one.

The 4.0L 6-cyl Nitro: common questions
Which Nitro years have the 4.0L 6-cyl?
2007–2011, without a break — 5 model years in our VIN decode, across 17 factory configurations and 4,952 VINs.
What does a 4.0L 6-cyl Nitro cost?
$6,694 is a configuration price reference: the median of configuration medians, with each priced configuration weighted equally. It is not a listing-level median or a valuation of an individual car. The year-by-year ladder shows VIN and inventory counts; its links open model-year price reports covering all engines.
Is the 4.0L 6-cyl turbocharged?
No — every configuration in this family decodes as naturally aspirated.
