I am not. If they would even have to, build it into the cost of the offset into the premium of the option. For the consumer, would still come way ahead bs doing it themselves.

Yes I am comparing the wrangler to the gladiator. They are made on the same assembly line and share most other parts. Shorter gears are good on a pickup too for more than just big tires.

100% agree. 4.10s are serviceable and not worth the trouble to mess with (cost, hassle, warranty, etc) if just going with 35” or smaller tires. But, I am sure the market is there of people who would gladly pay the up charge from the factory to start with 4.56s.

Your comments and naysaying completely ignore that Jeep already offers this option on the wrangler. 4.56 on the auto with XR and 4.88 on the manual as a standalone option. A little taller gear even with just the stock tire size would be perfectly driveable as is, and for many would provide a...

Agree 100% on this. Really seems like a no brainer. I think they already allow for you to chose this for the JL with either 4.56 or 4.88 (depending on various packages). Easy money for them for a quick upcharge on the ordering with no additional work on their end, and really good value for the...

Didn't see this anywhere, but last time this edition on the Gladiator also allowed for the selection of the mack's toe package. Anyone see if this would still be the case?

I am interested in this as well. If Gobi is done and final 2022 ones being wrapped up now, I wonder if Earl slots in in that paint bay for both JLs and JTs with the Reign (purple) being an eventual replacement for the current High Velocity (yellow) as a JL only offering.

Just happened to my friend's Subaru Outback parked off street, under a security light. The worst part was they didn't even get the CAT... idiots made off with a basically useless resonator. Not that that made the repair bill any less.

We are talking about Jeeps here right? Where many of the most hardcore enthusiasts ride them hard and put them away wet? But you are right, they are ill equipped to be parked outside.

Your take on this is truly bizarre. Let alone your seemingly tenuous grasp on the realities of real estate across the country, we are not talking about a Ferrari, but a Jeep Gladiator, where even a decently equipped one still costs a bit below the average transaction price for all new vehicles...

I expect Jeep corporate actually monitors threads like this or other social media (which I don't really bother with). If they don't, shame on them. The point of raising the issue (or ranting in your book) is to elicit a response that might resonate with someone who matters. Also, as I have...

That is correct. I do not (yet) own a Gladiator. Almost did (had to delay for reasons outside my control), joined Tread Lightly and everything last fall. After a while of looking at this forum, decided to officially join while I was waiting for the right chance to place a custom order. Please...

Thanks @bleda2002 and @Mister Lamb. Not sure if @Artsifrtsi is trolling or actually would rather Jeep not offer an airbag to protect his own kid. Opposing airbags because the MAN says you need them is asinine. Also, the other arguments that basically amount to 'back in my day....' are...

I find it ironic that you have a picture of a child in your profile picture. You should go tell him that you do not care if his head bashes into a metal pillar or pavement in a crash even while yours will be protected. I also believe that your concerns are wildly unfounded and overblown. Jeep...

I am not sure I did contradict myself. I simply stated I cannot understand the desire to not have them. I simply cannot imagine having to contort myself around the truck to make sure the doors are locked or roll up rear or side window. But that is me, and I also bemoan that the rear window...

Just because you type more words doesn't make your opinion more right than some else's. We are talking about two airbags to avoid what is clearly at best laziness by Jeep or in my opinion negligence via their omission. Ford has them on the Bronco and last I check those doors come off too and...

Except for that blow to the head of the rear passenger, as you acknowledge. That could be a major concussion or worse. Which certainly should nullify any other good aspects of the crash results regardless if the BOF structure held up better than the tin can Korean models (which certainly seemed...

That is precisely the point of this post and is certainly a reasonable position. This is a public forum and a place to call out Jeep for what I and certainly others perceive to be a pretty egregious omission. Sure Jeep does some things well, but the lack of a rear airbag in a MASS market...

I understand the KISS theory. Just that power door locks and windows are something I don't think is an actual problem. The doors on my 2000 Ram are completely rusting out, I've replaced numerous other necessary electronic related things like the starter, thermostat, etc. and the radio, heat...

I am hearing that Jeep is cutting the 2022 Gladiator/Wrangler orders short (compared to the 2021 model year run) and launching 2023s this summer. Some speculation over on the JL forums seems to peg this to an auto emergency braking update as standard across the line for govment compliance. If...
