Woah, I get to be one of the first posts on this thread!

I did a lot to it today, being my first day off with the Gladiator. I put on my Rydonair radio antenna, Mopar Door Sill Guards, put my drain plug in my floor mats, put in a cubby hole for my wife's stuff.

Wife added her hat to the Jeep when I have the top off, and I put in all my stuff I had in my Ram truck. Fits perfectly, now I just need an air compressor for off road trips.

I also wanted to show how much room is behind the seat, I put my Cherokee Trailhawk Trail Bag in there, which has my tow strap, and gloves.

My dog Pia also got to sit in the Gladiator for the first time.

Well, I was gonna give Rubi a bath today, but a Jeep friend rolled up at 8am and took a road trip OVER the mountains.

Mud baths count right?

Trip Notes:
A Jeep gets a wave. Two Jeeps rollin gets many waves and thumbs up.
A Rear locker, and 3 pedals inevitably will have you driving in circles around said second Jeep with spectacularly roosted donuts.
Don’t let the dog drive.
There is a 30mph speed governer in 4lo.
A full mag dump costs more and is emptied quicker than the Jeeps tank.
The 4th 5th and 6th mag dumps were also found to be just as expensive. Further testing needed yet.
The freedom top bag makes a very nice tailgate mat.
No, that scratch will not buff. And that dirt, is ground into the seats and carpets. And is in every nook and cranny on the outside as well.
Run what you brung, and love what you bring. Life is an adventure waiting to happen. Double so if there’s a second Jeep.


And the requisite pics for attention.

Nothing too dramatic. Drove around the Valley for gear break-in Mileage.

Did come across some cool ruins at Sears-Kay. ??

That's what I'm talking about. Guns and jeeps go hand in hand. Have to be ready for anything, especially if you go off grid. I think everyone should have an ar15 mod for their gladiators. ?

I added a conceal carry card to my wallet along with my gay and black cards. And definitely learned a lot in that time about firearms in general through ARs.

And today, we got to introduce a gun newb to firearms and a allow him safe access to sample a tailgate of various calibers and styles, ask questions and learn.

Hows the pre filter working for you? Have you checked the air filter since installing the snorkel?

I’ve not yet popped off the air box to check as it’s only been maybe a couple thousand miles, and mostly in winter. I also put in a K and N so different expectations. That said, in the rain, i do notice it collects it, and on a couple occasions tapped it out as the sand was evident. So definitely feel it’s doing what it needs to.

I haven’t gotten my EDC yet. I’m still saving for something nice. And get more rounded with guns and shooting in general.
