Great find... The "iT's RaTeD gOoD tHouGh" argument kind of crumbles when the literal data for rear passengers (what we've been talking about) is presented.
The mental gymnastics in this thread...
Do yourself a favor and buy Ryobi's $100 power washer. It's only 1600 psi/1.2 and even the 10 degree nozzle is safe for cars. Get the foamer attachment and some neutral based soap (Car Guys makes a good one) and you'll never have to worry about going to a car wash again. No mud will survive...

Freedom panels??? Maybe on the 12th visit he'll finally take a look at the suspension.... This clueless tech is practically gifting you the ability to lemon it if you wanted to go that route
Do you guys have these newly recommended bolts for the rear sway bar link? They're about 20mm longer. I'm based in NY and don't feel like paying the $13 shipping from the above link!!!
I had a 5.7L Challenger before my Gladiator. One of the best cars I've ever owned. Miss her :(
Enjoy the AWD and the luxury of not throwing weights in your trunk lol
