I've only owned my oil burner for a few months (also my 1st Jeep!). Was driving back home after helping my kid move out of college. Was parked at a red light and there was a Mojave in the oncoming lane. As he turned and made the turn, he honked at at me and then did the "wave". I also honked in...

I love the diesel drive-train but don't like the turbo lag. I was checking out the interweb and banks pedal monster came up on several forums but some say it doesnt really reduce the turbo lag but kinda "hides it". I'm ok with $300 ...as a PC builder and home theater nut, I've spent $XXX on...

Very close to ordering this for my diesel to get rid of the turbo lag (for stop-n-go traffic). I do know all it does is make the pedal more sensitive but apparently, there's a little bit more involved where it mimizes the turbo lag. Since the install is so easy and kinda hidden, do I have to...

Topic..interested in getting this but not sure if it's actually helpful or not. Plus its $300 so not exactly cheap for a "trial". I have a stock rubicon with factory 33s but I work from home so most of the drive (as of now) is around town/short commutes with a lot of traffic lights/stop signs...

My kid and I were returning home last night from a local park and got T-boned by a speeding 16 yr old (no drivers license on her either). I was driving but was able to control the impact as the glady swerved off the main street but the 33's went right over the curb and onto the footpath like a...

Still discovering my Rubby but found out mine (and 23 onwards) don't have the older Fox 2.0 shocks (red). Was this a cost cutting move by Jeep to move to a inhouse cheaper shocks? Not sure who makes these on mine. Though I do enjoy the street driving and have no complaints with whatever shocks...

Celebrating one week of ownership today with a measly 200 miles..lol. Here's my Ranger that went in for the trade (went positive in my loan so used that towards my down payment). Loved the Ranger but rear seats were too small and gas milege was just ok (20mpg combined but still better than...

Hi all Still in honeymoon with my oil burner but already getting "complaints" from my wife and mom (elderly). My now-traded Ford Ranger had the side steps and it was super handy for shorter people (mind ya, I never call my wife "short"..lol). I have a friend who does fabrication and he said if...

Jeep currently has high money factor for leases and they work with crap banks which results in high APR. I was lucky enough to finance it thru my own bank and after trading my Ranger, used my own bank for the reminder of the loan. Jeep currently does 6.5% APR for Tier 1 credit in my area!! Ford...

Hi all, I know tons of threads here and I've been going thru them and seems the general consensus is Beamtech H13 or the Auxito H13. For whatever reason, the Amazon links posted in these threads for the Beamtech is no longer active ..I found these via google search: Is this the correct bulb...

Ok fellas, officially 'joining' the forum. Walked out with $49k plus taxes which I thought was a good deal on a oil burner. Last diesel was a BMW X5 that served me extremely well for 82k (though had 2 crticial emission related issues and both covered under extended BMW warranty). Will keep it...

In talks for a '23 diesel rubicon currently with my local dealer listed at $51k and I'm trying to get it down to $49k. Not sure if the salesman is trying to BS or not but he said, they've received corporate email stating Jeep will be ending the current '15% off msrp '23 models' discount come...

Hi guys, Hopefully my deal works out and I'll be signing the final paperwork and trading my Ford Ranger for a '23 diesel Gladiator Rubicon (pretty basic specs but leather seats and cold weather package and Mud terrain tires). I've owned a BMW X5 diesel back in the day for 82k miles but had...

Almost closing in a rubicon diesel deal (might sign the papers tomorrow). Only 2 things I dislike are 1) terrible halogen lights ..I might replace these with LED bulbs (not the whole housing but just bulbs). I've seen YouTube and process looks simple but I don't have tools nor auto experience to...

Can ya pros please go over this lease breakdown and see if I'm in fact getting this lease based on the $49k discounted price? Rubicon diesel with leather seats and tow package. $3k down, 3 years lease @ 15k miles (sales couldn't see 10k in their system as I work remote and 10k is still a...

I've started shopping around for a oil burner '23 glady but notice none of them come with any safety features, period. Not even remote start even on the $50k rubicon's I've seen. I drive a Ford Ranger Tremor currently with all the safety features and truth be told, have come to appreciate it...

G'day all I'm in CA and been out of the diesel world for a while . Last oil burner was a '11 BMW X5 that served me faithfully till 92k miles. I had my share of emission issues (and tow) but still loved the oil burner, the sound and the crazy highway milege (was averaging 26mpg combined and 30mp...
