I trust this needs to be viewed on an actual computer? I’m sure others have asked....but with 119 pages in the thread, doesn’t seem worth looking further than the half dozen or so I went through.

Yeah, I’ve lost this argument. My logic and sound reasoning are no match for insults and personal attacks. The benefits are definitely there in favor of the automatic...your logic is sound. You don’t seem to be in a rush, so there is very little reason that you shouldn’t be able to find an...

You live on an island for a reason...and few other vehicles allow you to enjoy that island as well as a Jeep. So, the real question is, what’s your backup vehicle? Just make sure the backup is reliable, simple, and also a Jeep (or Jeep like...vintage Bronco, Scout, Defender, FJ, etc). Is Turo...

I love your commitment and dedication! Long story short, but the first Gladiator I ordered I decided not to buy and the dealer sold it to a young couple that didn’t know how to drive a manual...the salesman actually drove them 3 hours back home in their new truck (I’m guessing they were trading...

I take it you don’t know how to drive a manual? Or maybe you just don’t like them. I’ve never had push button lockers or discos...always climbed under the Jeep with a pair of wrenches and depended on driving skill, a tow strap or a winch to help me where lockers may have been needed. Regardless...

I think I was too tired to be diplomatic

The Stop Sale wasn’t a big deal. You had 3500 of the roughly 8000 Gladiators built before mid-June that were impacted by the recall and stop sale...all because 5% of those 3500 might have a problem. So about 175 trucks had bad driveshafts. They’ll have the whole issue sorted out LONG before...

The truck isn’t a freakin video game. At that point you’re literally taking away all the good things about a modern automatic without gaining any of the awesomeness that comes with a manual. Manually shifting an automatic is absolutely worthless. It’s the equivalent of a CVT with programmed...

1)I’m not always at home when the weather permits removal of doors...I can toss the uppers in the back, but full doors gotta be left in the garage. 2) half doors are THE PERFECT height for an arm rest 3) kids in the back get the door-less feel but the wife seems to think they’re safer ‍♂️ 4)...

Yeah, and then you can toss a Bartact seat cover on to match the rest of your interior....

There are 2 things that stand out to me here...and I’m NOT saying that you’re getting a bad deal, just 2 things that don’t jive with MY logic when looking at that build: 18” wheels make tires a lot more expensive. Maybe you just really like the look, but me, personally, I’d stick with 17’s and...

Man, that looks a lot like the one I ordered and then chose not to buy.

This concept just does NOT work with Jeeps. At least not in the way you’re pitching it. Resale value is often so high that it only looks like a good deal if you’re comparing the used Jeep with the MSRP of a new one. Compare to the 5-7% below invoice that could have been paid new, and you find...

2nd order submitted! Gobi Rubicon. Manual, MT’s, Tow, Aux Switch, 8.4 w/Premium sound, LED’s, Trail Cam, Cargo Trail Rail,

How did we make it through the whole day with no one posting about Gobi becoming available?

What happens when you hover over Gobi?

Production of the JT did not begin until the second quarter of 19...and within the automotive industry, that’s pretty much normal. I took delivery of my 2014 JKU the first week of June, 2013. For whatever reason, Jeep slowly pushed new Wrangler intros from the beginning of the 3rd quarter to the...

I could also mention, I came from Honda and Mazda manuals. We’ve owned a 3.8 JK and 3.6 JKU with manuals, and 3.8 JKU and 3.6 JKU’s with auto. I’ve test driven the JLU and JT with both auto and manual. The 4 speed auto in the 3.8 was terrible. Though I’m trying to find one now, I’d only live...

The fact is that new automatics are better than ever before...it’s where the bulk of development money goes because over 90% of buyers would rather pay extra to be lazy. It’s also easier for manufacturers to control the way people drive with an automatic and predict maintenance costs. At this...
