I don’t see any branding or part numbers on there. Maybe someone over at the JK forum will know. This is a Jeep Gladiator forum you posted on.

At least these refreshed models have the 2.0 in them. The old 2.4’s were awful. My wife almost bought one, but her VW Jetta seemed more spacious.
Does the Compass trailhawk come with a rear locker like the Cherokee had?
I ended up picking up a loaded 2021 GC WK2 summit, hemi for the longer trips. Couldn’t be happier in that. So glad I got one of the last years of the WK2. I am not a fan of the new styling or interior material they chose.
8 JKs is impressive!
Absolutely. I’d rather see the forum flooded with happy owner posts rather than “My market value is tanking” threads. Of course, the technical threads are very helpful as well.
If you like the way it drives currently, don’t change a damn thing. Once you mod the suspension, you’re going to be upgrading a lot more than you think, especially if the goal is 3-3.5 lift and 37’s.
Have you driven a lifted Jeep before? I hate to see people who upgrade for looks then hate how...
It sounds like you just need to take a nice vacation and bond with your JT again. With days darker earlier, it’s cold out, and the Jeep just sitting outside all sad, it is easy to forget how fun it can be to drive it and use it for it’s intended purpose.
Really close your eyes, imagine driving...
I like both. I’d probably be happy in either as long as it has a sunroof and is blue or Gobi. I’m not going to try and convince anyone to do anything anymore - just do what makes you happy. But please, for the love of God, just know there is no need to post a departure thread if you do leave ?.
That is how it is done, good call.
The market is on a pendulum right now, yes, because of many issues including Covid. It will take time to get back to normal. I don’t think we will see trade in values like we saw then for at least a very long time. Many consumers are just now seeing the...
First off, forget about the Covid market, that was a rarity and should never be used to compare to a real car market.
Let’s go with your theory on Gladiators being very niche and only being available for a very limited time. If that is the case, even if Gladiators were in the mid 30k range...
What is? That a vendor didn’t have the parts so they refunded the customer in less than 4 weeks? Where is bad? It sucks that he didn’t get the Black Friday deal, but the vendor could have done much worse.
I don’t think that is the case. With high interest rates and inflation, it just means you have to make smarter financial decisions. Don’t buy something you can’t afford, pretty simple. If you buy right, you should still be able to save. (When it comes to vehicles)
I mean, they gave you a refund instead of keeping you tied to a purchase that you might be waiting even longer for. It sucks, but it sounds like they made it right with the refund. Sometimes, you just have to look at it like a glass half full. Take the refund and purchase elsewhere. No need to...
Unpopular opinion (maybe). Gone are the days of putting next to nothing down on a $50k+ vehicle. It’s not terrible at 6/7% with a good amount down.
Drive something basic you can afford until you save up enough to drive what you really want. The closer you are to a payoff or not having one is...
