Has anyone bought the tan color Weathertech mats? I'm figuring on Saddle leather but nothing else inside is tan. Thought the tan mats might look good. Also planning on the tan Hotheads.
Would love to see pics of tan seats and tan mats.
After months of deliberation and research, I think (as of now :)) that I'm not gonna get the JT at this point. In my opinion, it's too expensive for what you get. I also have concerns about what seem to be common Jeep trouble issues which would detract from the experience for me as well...
So in addition to buying a JT off the lot or custom ordering one, another way would be for the dealer to locate one spec'd like you want and dealer trade for it.
Haven't heard of that happening thus far . . .
a passing thought . . .
Anyone considered coating the outer edges of the fenders and the hard top? The vertical surfaces, I guess you'd say. Thinking body colored here with Line X protection on the edges that could scrape branches, tree trunks etc.
For those of us still on the fence between these two colors, I'd love to have a place to see/compare both. I do realize it means posting your pics twice, but I think it be cool to see them on the same thread. Extra thanks for pics posted with Saddle :).
I also realize no one has their Gator...
For those of you that have the Saddle Leather option (or have seen it in person), in your opinion would it look better with Gobi or with Gator? I realize it's pretty much guesswork at this point, but what the hey . . .
Post here how you see the market getting softer for the Gladiator. Increased inventory, deeper dealer discounts, FCA promotions, etc.
For example, here in Lexington, KY the local dealer's website has 18 JTs listed! About 8 of them seem to be Launch Editions.
As Jeep falls farther behind in their paint schedule, some are succumbing to the lure of other colors (cue music: Another One Bites the Dust).
So what is your 'tempt color'? How long will you wait?
Anyone else (first Jeep owners or those prepping their spouse) riding around in their 'cage' (traditional car/truck) with extra windows down/sunroof open more than usual? Been trying to get the Mrs. used to it subliminally. Didn't work, she picked up on it right away!
She's definitely on...
Anyone planning on covering their leather seats with seat covers? My thought is to get the leather, then put on seat covers for the hot months, then enjoy the leather the rest of the time. Lets me avoid the all-black interior and get rid of the red dash of the Rubicon.
Drove a Rubicon, then a non-max-tow Sport S back to back. Fairly short trips, 55-60 mph max.
To me, the Sport S had a smoother ride over bumps. It seemed the Rubicon needed more pedal to maintain speeds, which could just be the gear ratio difference. Was more pedal than I expected though...
So I loaded this up with my 4wheeler, a couple of coolers, and most of my gear/weight that would ever be in the thing. Towed it around for a while on 2 lane and interstate with the Pentastar in our 2015 Durango Citadel AWD to try to get a sense of how a JT would do. Tow rated at 6200 lbs. Truck...
I've seen the discussions of adding Rubicon suspension components to a Sport S for added off-road capability. Here's a silly thought . . . But what about the possibility of "de-Rubiconning" the suspension in the interest of increasing towing/payload? I know it sounds silly, but I thought I'd...
Opinions? Bigger discount? I don't mind buying from stock, but I want a fairly loaded Sport S but without the Blind Spot and Cruise Control nannies. I seriously doubt I'll find that in the color I want.
I want the tan cloth interior (Sport S). Unfortunately I also want the Gobi exterior. I don't think they will work well together. But I don't want all black interior more than I want the Gobi, so I'm thinking Gator.
Seems like not many have the tan. How are you liking it? What color...
