What is an unpopular opinion you have in the Jeep community?



That while I wouldn't own these myself, and 24's are ridiculous on any vehicle, these wheels don't look so bad on this Gladiator...

My unpopular opinion is that most people are uploading huge images which are greatly slowing down the forum. Could we all please resize to screen size before posting?

That my wife's Bronco is just as awesome as my JT

No no come on now

 

[Rahkmalla]

And lets be honest here, I wouldn't be buying another Jeep without the XR option, so that means no JT and no 2 door

The XR option is just too much value

I bought 17x9 steel wheels at 355 for 5 and 315/70r17 kendas at 435 for 5 and paid 200 to have them mounted, balanced, and TPMS taken from the stock wheels, them I sold my factory take off mojave wheels and tires for 900. THAT'S value.

4k for beadlock wheels and bigger tires? 450 per wheel and 310 per tire plus install gets you to the 4k price of XR, except doing g it yourself you still get a grand back in takeoff sales. Jeep doing it for you, you dont. I'm missing the value proposition you're seeing.

If Darth Vader was a jeep.

Gladiators look terrible without doors and/or the hardtop off.

Now THAT IS unpopular. As in WTF?

 

[DocMike]

Yep. I managed a case from my local liquor store.. probably never happen again.

Just brought a couple bottles home from Komiefornia for my sister inlaws.

They must live in a riot-prone city.

They must live in a riot-prone city.

Id have a clever name on the side. Something like "Chaz Street sweeper" or "San Francisco side walk cleaning services"

Found one for you

THEY'RE DECALS!

Ok, we have to draw the line somewhere. That's just ridiculous...

Lol. Agreed.

 

[Oasis Supernova]

Apparently jeep owners are a bunch of assholes. Lol

I love my manual, clutch included. I think my rokblokz look great. But IFS is significantly better for desert racing. I don't imagine many KotH entrants are running solid front axles.

I neglected to put the not in there darn it... IFS is better in most situations it's just really expensive compared to how inexpensive SA setups can be.

I put Rockblokz on my JT as well i think they look great. Just FYI don't try backing over obstacles with out removing the flaps first. I ripped one off and bent the crap out of the bracket.

 

[Chestnut]

Pretty good...... at best. It could be way better.

That is fair. I'd rather 2nd through 6 be more evenly spaced imo. There is a bit too much of a jump between 2nd and 3rd. I disagree with 6th being useless. I use it often from 55+, but downshift out of it often if i need to increase speed at all.

Clutch could offer more feeback, i wish that the gas pedal was a bit less sensitive.

I’m gonna get boo’d for this one but I didn’t have an issue with the brightness of the factory halogen headlights. I only replaced them to get a cleaner white light look.

That being said, the LED bulbs are much brighter. Probably too bright.

It’s not about the wheels, it’s about the gearing

That’s the value
