It is too bad that they dropped the lifetime warranty - although lifetime with some Jeep products can be measured in single digit years.
How is entune better? Reviewers generally give the uconnect system high marks.

If they dropped the lifetime warranty - i'm not sure i'd buy another.
Uconnect has 3 major flaws. 1: occasionally the system will lock up and get confused, it will not play music from your flash drive, once rebooted it is fine. 2: If you update your music flash drive, it can take a while (15+ minutes) to read the drive and begin to play music.
The last is a little more serious: Uconnect will sort music based on the MP3 TITLE TAG not the filename. This means that if you are listing to an album and the 1st song is "Tom Sawyer", and the 5th song is "A Farewell to Kings"
AFTK will play first. It also basically prohibits listening to a live concert. There is a workaround to this i developed (and got free a Jeep wave extension), but it is a pain in the butt.
Both vehicles are good solid vehicles, i personally prefer the T4R, when the Jeep gets to 50 - 60k (which will take another 2 years) I'll think about replacing hers, possibly with a RX or GX.
