Honestly, thats a thing. My F150 has, no joke, like 10 or 12 cupholders and we use them. 4 in the center console, one in each door, two in the rear seat armrest. We will have coffee, smoothies, water, kids drinks, etc when we leave the house to go camping. first thing I said to my wife when we...

I bought a 2018 Chevy Bolt a few months back and it has a heated wheel. I really love it, thats why I want it on the Jeep.

Do you think it will? The Gladiator EcoD is as heavy as my trailer and has a fairly long wheelbase.

Well and thats not even what I mean. If im just cruising down the freeway with my trailer at 65mph, my F150 is putting about 300 ft-lbs sustained at 2000 rpm. Thats why Im more interest in a truck where the engine is able to do that fairly effortlessly. That Tacoma 2.4L would be giving it...

I mean its 1.8 kwh battery. 10HP is 7.5 kw. That means, assuming no efficiency losses or anything, and completely draining the battery from 100 to 0%, 10 hp will kill it in 14 minutes. Its not meant for sustained output, its meant for bursts. Watch the Tundra IKE Gauntlet. The electric power...

Those numbers are the combined electric + gas. Thats why I am not too interested in it. The battery is only like 1.8 kwh or something which is not enough to supply a meaningful amount of power or torque for extended periods. Even 10 hp could only be supplied for maybe 8 minutes or so before the...

Dont have a Gladiator yet but this was my solid axle swapped ‘95 4Runner on 37’s last winter. Probably close to 40” deep.

That and its $67000 to start for the Overtrail and I bet its going to be marked up by dealers for a year or two. Realistically, buying one of those would probably be 2-3 years off. The wife also wants a bed so we can throw our dirty wet crap in. Paddleboards, bikes, whatever. I wish Toyota was...

You know whats funny, I already have that insane diesel cooler sitting in my garage. That radiator they use is the cooler for the inverter in a Prius. I bought one a few years back for my F150 with the intention of doing the exact same thing, plumbing it in after the oil cooler to cool that...

My experience with 4 sets of Duratracs is that you have to rotate the hell out of them. I am talking like 3-4k miles. And then stay on top of alignments. If you let em go and they get a little wonky, its all over. But they are the best A/T tire i've used in the snow. KO2's suck in the snow, I...

On full-sized trucks, yes they are. Ram is the only one down year over year on full-sized trucks. But mid-sized trucks are down across the entire board except for the Ridgeline. For GM, Ford, and Toyota you might be able to blame that on the new gen around the corner. Also, I think Ford gave up...

Even though the tow rating on the Gladiator is competitive, the Pentastar is not going to hold a candle to how the Colorado or Ranger 2.7L tow. The Colorado 2.7 is making 348 ft-lbs at 1500 rpm, 391 ft-lbs at 2000 rpm, and 430 ft-lbs at 3000 rpm. Thats more torque than my 2014 F150 3.5L...

My Lexus GX makes 301hp and 330ft-lbs out of its 4.6L V8 and I am looking for more than that. The Pentastar is a decent motor, and I have had them in Ram 1500 rentals, but it just wont have the low end torque I am looking for to keep the RPM's down while towing. My GX makes 330 ft-lbs at only...

Yeah payload will be an issue for sure. I agree. I usually try to pack everything I can in the trailer to keep weight out of the truck.

I am getting very close to pulling the trigger on a 2023 EcoDiesel, but, I want a sanity check before I get to much farther down the road. I tow a 2012 Jayco JayFeather X213 currently and live in Utah at 6500'. I tow here, WY, ID, MT and sometimes down into NV. Dry weight is ~4250 lbs and GVWR...

I agree. I started looking at the dealer websites here and of the 6-7 dealers I looked it, it appears there are something like 20-30 diesel Gladitors in transit. Someone is going to be sitting on a wholeeeee bunch of 2023 Gladiators if they dont keep these incentives going. The dealer with the...

That's what happened when I bought my F150. They actually told me that I could pay it off whenever but they would lose their kickback if I didnt wait 4 months. I honored it for them, but at the time the rates were super low and it wasn't a big deal.

The real question now is if the Jeep will come in on time. If it gets in after the 1/16 deadline then i miss the 15% off MSRP incentive. Do we think that will continue? Will it get better?

This was actually what a salesman said to me today. Finance it and then pay most of it off right away and then coast out the required 6 months with minimal interest. I never even thought of that but its a great point. I was asking becuase I am used to Fords, which have a program similar to...

If the motor was dumping too much fuel, wouldn't that produce additional power unless it was an insanely low AFR? I would think that would be noticeable.
