Toss up for me. My dad and I did a Jeep jamboree at Badlands off-road Park in NW Indiana, or me and my dog road tripped with my camper down to E Texas to go feral hog hunting with an old buddy.

I did the Mopar 2" lift on my '22 JTRD with steel bumpers and winch. I added a 1" front leveling puck. All in all I got 3" gain all around. The lift came with the Fox 2.0 shocks. Mine is an early year build, the later year builds the lift kit shocks were changed from Fox to.....??? The springs...

I was just going to say something like that, the pentastar is fine for a 4 door Wrangler, but it's terrible to drive in a Gladiator unless you're going out for groceries or coffee

Well I've had to play catch-up on this conversation, seems it's devolved into a sealing dumpster fire. I had a sight mark z max green dot on my long gun for a long while with mbus iron sights. It went wonky on me and couldn't center or just work properly anymore. But sightmark stands on their...

Tan steelies like your AI picture or something blacked out, tungsten, gunmetal..... Keep the factory Rubicon wheel size as a minimum (17-18"), don't go to big and end up with a stupid looking strip of tire on a manhole size wheel

I've got close to 50k miles on my '22 JTRD, I tow and haul and off-road it (probably harder than I should, and I know I over load). I've never had cooling issues, I watch my overland pages like a hawk when I know I'm running heavy or maybe pulling a little out of my class, never been close to...

The ota updates to the infotainment system are good enough to pin you in a few block radius. Even if you didn't sign up for extra services, checks for updates every time you start the engine, and really screws with things if you are running a tazer sometimes, just depends on the update

My '22 JTRD does about the same. Usually hangs around 22 mpg for my normal driving, drops to about 19 mpg if I'm pulling my camper. I will say it's really consistent though, unless I get a skunky tank of fuel, gets grumpy. I have the ASS "feature" disabled, I'm sure that would make some kind...

You're not off track, everything has turned to the disposable mindset. Every vehicle I've owned I've maintained myself aside from major repairs and drove them until it wasn't practical and had to let them go.

They can manufacturer all kinds of excuses to get out of warranty work. Driving too fast, too slow, unapproved blinker fluid....

Oh, btw. I have the factory '22 Rubicon diesel parts, minus the front sway bar links if anyone is interested, they're were taken off at about 20k miles. Hit me up if you're interested, there just taking up room in my garage, also got a stock diesel exhaust pipe, it's the final segment with the...

I got my '22 JTRD with the fox shocks, never had the feeling of them being soft. Routinely put around 1500lbs in the bed like ^ said earlier. Now I have the Mopar 2" lift on, came with new springs and shocks, I had a choice between fox 2.0 and something else, think '22 was a transition year for...

Power back window..... Preach brother.... The struggle is real. I think the gladiator is mis-classed, I constantly line up with f-150s and best I can tell we're the same size, I might be a little taller. It's probably weight based, gladdy is mostly skinned in aluminum so it doesn't have as much...

I call shenanigans on both, they both want to sell or lease you a new "lifetime" vehicle every 3-4 years. I'd still have my '14 Cherokee as a second vehicle, but I asked about transmission service at about 120k miles and they said bluntly NO, they'd have to pull the engine to get at the...

Those last two bars on the fuel gauge go away faster than the rest. I've only ran mine to the warning light 3 times in 45k miles, it ended up taking high 17 to mid 18 gallons. I typically do 2 clicks at the pump unless it's blowing back(been there, don't that, got the T-shirt, it sucks, face...
