Diesel main batteries are bigger. Aux batteries are the same. You can upgrade your gasser to the diesel size battery by removing a piece in the bottom of the battery box.
Those unicorn fully loaded Gladiators for $55k were out there, at least when I bought mine in 2021. The trick is the ones I found were Overlands, not Rubicons. I got my Overland for $53k out the door with all options but the Advanced Safety Group and that Bluetooth Speaker. True, you don't...
I would be pulling the batteries and have them load tested. That and check if the alternator is being commanded to charge. Making sure all the fuses in the underhood fuse box would not be a bad idea, as well.
Variable TXV's that respond to demand work a whole lot better than the fixed orifice systems that older cars had. Much easier to keep right above freezing without having to go through freeze thaw cycles like systems that solely regulate on pressure.
If you want perceived effortlessness, they already have a solution for that. The 3.0 Diesel covers all of the towing issues and fuel economy issues in one swipe. (And yes, if you push the 3.0 hard enough for long enough while in hot enough weather, it will derate.)
Complaining about the 3.6's...
At least for a good while, these subscription based options should be somewhat easily hackable. A properly coded Raspberry Pi with a LIN bus shield should be able to issue commands over the vehicles LIN or CAN bus. All it would take is someone with the feature and a similar device to snoop the...
I would point out that this Jeep probably has a California emissions package instead of the Federal emissions package that every other state has.
Might not be an issue but something to keep in mind if you ever have to go the parts store, as it can matter on getting the right parts.
I was actually looking at these exact lights myself. The only thing I didn't like about them was that it was going to take two aux switches to run the white and yellow parts of the lights. Not a deal breaker, but that could be an issue if I ever get a roll bar and lights for the top.
Has anybody tried installing the flush mount 3 inch cube lights or other lights of that type in the part of the bumper where the parking sensors would live in? My jeep does not have that option, and it seems like there is a decent sized cavity that would fit lights with a little room to spare...
My guess would be the heater circuit in the O2 sensor has failed, and the gauge can either directly detect the failure or it is just defaulting to this message because it is getting insufficient voltage from the sensor side of the sensor.
I have been tempted to mount a set of single-row LED lights in that gap, as I don't like the look of cube lights up by the windshield.
It may be a decent alternative option to making a filler plate while still getting rock protection from the wheel well.
