I screw this up all the time, I wave at Corvetteās when Iām in the jeep, Porscheās when Iām in the Vette, and Jeepās when Iām in the Porsche. People must think Iām really friendly.
So I have the exact same truck, exact same tires, i I can confirm the 37ā ridge grappler fits in the spare location on a 17ā rim in case you want to do the same.
Just to estimate the additions (I'm guessing on actual components used since they don't explain):
Wheels ($250each x 4) $1,000
Mopar Lift $1,600
Nitto Trail G's ($400x4) $1,600
Wheel Spacers $200
Installation/re-calibrate...
Wow, this looks great. The price confuses me a little because it appears to have new custom wheels, 40ā Nittos, and a lift installed, but the dealer only marked it up $4K? Granted they may be doing all of that at cost to move the vehicle, but still respectable considering what Iāve seen other...
uh...awesome truck, but no $57,250 is not better than Employee Pricing. My Launch Edition had the same MSRP at $62,310 and the exact employee pricing I paid was $55,660 including destination. Don't get me wrong, you still got a great deal, but for others out there who may be going to get one...
My Launch Edition was $55,500 (or right about there, cannot remember exactly)...Employee pricing is 5% off. Now the cool part is getting 25% off of accessories. I added the lift installed, tube doors, performance rock rails, 7" and 5" LED lights, floor mats, winch mount, and grab handles. So...
Put it on AutoTrader, ask a fair price and it will sell in less than 3 weeks. If it doesnāt your price is too high. Your vehicles value is what someone is willing to pay for it, not what KBB or some other service says. I know this first hand, I have a fun vehicle that Iām selling to make room...
Originally thought I wanted Gobi/Gator but they turned out not what I would have liked to own for years and years. Went black and damn it looks good to me. Color is such a personal preference thing though. Side note I came out of the store the other day and had a car full of guys from Brazil...
We are sissy's but it starts to be a little uncomfortable if the temps are below 70 for having the doors off. Here in Michigan we went 2 months fully naked on the JL, JT was too late in the season when we got her considering we spent almost a month in French Polynesia right after we took...
Well, all I can say is this was my business, I was successful enough at it as a small business owner that it allowed me to very comfortably retire at 43, so I do speak from a position of having some first hand knowledge. Iām still cursed to look at every gap, color, and the fit and finish of...
It is interesting that this is such a polarizing subject for people. I retired from the automotive interior trim world a few years back, but know the harmony people here at the big three that pick everything from thread color to feel of the headliner material. It is a very big deal with these...
Crazy, we have a LE with the Mopar lift, rock rails, tube doors, 7ā LEDās, 5ā LEDās, and 37ā Ridge Grapplers only cost us $61K installed. Damn these are sweet trucks!
Well Iām a classic car guy and a Gladiator owner who has towed. First comment is drive the Cars to whatever show you are taking them to...why save them for the next guy, use them like they were intended! This is coming from a guy with a ā67 Vette restored to concourse level quality.
Second...
Do it, youāll love it, but I think you should be able to get closer to 5% under MSRP. There are a bunch of us on here (including myself) that paid about $55,500 including destination charges (without doc fee). Be patient, theyāll accept a reasonable offer thatās close to this. Good luck!
Sorry forgot the other question, at full turn I did notice a small rub. Iām thinking if I keep these rims Iāll end up with spacers...havenāt had time to fully investigate, but zero issues in normal driving, at 75 on the interstate the wife commented on how quiet and smooth the ride was.
Wow, thatās awesome, yes sailing is ridiculous fun! We are on a 44ā Sun Odyssey this time, we just did a well sailing The Swedish western archipelago in August in a 42 bennetau...those mfārs know over there how to sail over there, itās very rocky and beautiful shore, and itās open to the North...
Or the market could go down 10 percent 2 years in a row and in 5 years you still arenāt back to even. Then your math looks very very different. There are no investments that offer a risk free 7% rate of return. We have been in a 10 year bull market, the longest in history, history is not on...
I just got my 37"s and lift installed this week, so I can tell you driving back to back on my LE there is little difference in power or braking (I don't drive aggressively though). I do notice the tires grab the even road surfaces a little more, but that is to be expected. Overall, I love it...
