*IF* only this forum had a moderator that could combine this and the other 2" lift thread..

Side steps.. or whatever they are called

I'm not 100% sure if the public can even attend, as you can see it is held in public though. Just show up with plywood and they will usher you into the activities.

They had a JT pulling an 18 wheeler today that had a Ford Ranger on the trailer.. I guess because it can Haha.

Hoping for Memorial Day.. lol Most of the Gladiators have been arriving at dealers 2 weeks after their "ship date".

Nice! I wouldn't put a ton of faith into some wheel manufacturers posted weight. I saw one place list the Mopar Beadlocks at 26lbs when they are closer to 34lbs. I'm with you on the unsprung weight topic. After seeing many AEV wheels with porosity issues in the barrel they went to the bottom of...

Other than it being the wrong color with red letter tires that JT is spot on in my opinion. 37s look just right.

Any dealer that would keep your deposit is a dealer you shouldn't have went to in the 1st place. I go drive the Gladiator my dealer has in stock every time I swing by haha. Then again I buy a new car every 6 months and I'm looked at as a distant employee at this point. I learned something new...

I'm trying to resist 37s with the 2" lift. I almost think the Gladiator looks fine with 35s and no lift. My issue is that I already have the Mopar lift, a set of 17" BFGs in a 35" as well as 35" Ridge Grapplers in 18s. Now if I were to have a Jeep to put them on haha!

Agreed. They are still offering a far better deal than 99% of the dealers across the US. One thing most people don't realize is that buyers that have an EP or CDI number WOULD save 11% off MSRP, or 5% under invoice - IF they were compatible on the JT. So yeah, the deal they are offering is...

Looks like the writing was on the wall weeks ago.

Yes that messes up the entire idea. Seems like that puts you in the middle of the LE VINs that are posted on here.

This was posted back on April 13th. I still think they are building 10k pre-spec units for dealer inventory before they start on the LEs. That would mean the LE VINs would start around 110500.

It always pays to know a parts guy. My tri-fold cover and 2" lift both came in on Friday.

Vehicles have rake for improved aerodynamics which in turn aid in better fuel economy. Doubtful that FCA cares what their vehicles look like when towing more so than the fuel economy numbers.

1005xx was the start of the first units the were able to be sold. I'd guess the first 500 were all built as test pilots which have various uses.

It makes prefevr sense as to why they did in my opinion. It gave them 6-8 weeks to build 10k pre-spec units which allowed them to schedule the parts needed for the LE models. This in turn benefits the LE buyers because they end up with a more refined build at the expense of the pre-spec units...

Courtesy delivery / drop ship. Selling dealer must submit the drop ship change request to the VOIM team. The dealer who actually delivered the vehicle only gets paid by FCA for the PDI. They are assuming the liability for little profit while the selling dealer profits from the sale. Most dealers...

They could be in short supply from the supplier since they had to allocate 4,190+ for LEs.

It would seem that if you got that email you don't have a Launch Edition. Probably a good idea to call them again and confirm that you indeed want one. Tons of JLs sitting at the plant and numerous Gladiators being loaded for transport and buzzing around. My ship date is the 15th and I don't...
