Bought it. Drove it home. Tried to figure out where, what things are and how they work.

I just talked with Chad from Rock Hard 4x4 They have a very nice looking tubular rack system. They are developing a rack that will accommodate the Mopar hard cover, but it will require drilling the rails.

We finally found our Gladiator! (Probably). We should close the deal tomorrow and pick it up then or Monday. It is a 2021 (of course because we only wanted Snazzberry - or maybe Earl, but Earl is too hard to find and too new/expensive). Mojave. 37500 miles. $35400. This is a good price...

I may look into that. We are going to make a Montana LLC next year to buy a motor-home. We could just have the LLC own the jeep and rent it to us at cost. IF the insurance is that much cheaper it may be worth it. I tried to run this jeep through Montana insurance quote, but without an...

The salvage title was because it was stolen and recovered after being paid off. No real damage (they stole the key fob and left a bunch of Pot in it). But it does not matter. Rebuilt title for any reason at all and the comp and collision insurance costs $2k a year more. They took 6-7K off...

Wow. Thank you!! This works great. It even searches craigslist. There are a ton of them (makes me feel better after several comments indicated we would not find many Snazzberry Mojave options - they had me worried, but there are plenty) . I will let my wife start sorting through them and...

Thank you I will try it

Yes. 5 Small yellow vinyl ducks. Isn;t that what Jeepers most desire? (My wife runs a regional library and they give them out at events, so I can go to events and get them, or claim the leftovers as compensation for helping to clean up).

Sorry, but factories do have bad days or weeks where they have a huge number of quality defects (huge compared to normal). Often they catch the defects and the cars stack up in the correction area. Sometimes they slip through and they hav a bunch of warranty issues. This is what as I...

Thank you. We were just about to buy the one in New Haven with a rebuilt title. It was stolen and recovered with no damage. Then I discovered that insurance companies charge $2000 a year more for comp and collision on rebuilt title and they devalue the vehicle in the event of a loss ($25K...

We are looking for a very specific Gladiator. We found one locally, but it had a rebuilt title and the insurance cost woudl have been insane. We found two others, but they had had a light grey or white interior and my wife took one look at the interior and said "Nope" Google searches are not...

Ethanol has 15% less energy. And yes it will not burn clean in a car that is not designed to use it. That is why you do not use E85 unless your car is made to run it. You will foul your plugs among other things. (i.e. Carbon build up). Ethanol does not burn as hot as gasoline, and without...

Part of the problem may be a gas you are using. These engines are 87 octane engines. To get octane to 95 most places here use a lot of Ethanol. Ethanol has a lot less energy in it and does not burn as clean, especially a lower compression levels. If Australia uses ethanol to achieve high...

Except, as we ;learned that your insurance costs massively more (more than double) and the insurance payout in a theft or total loss is massively reduced. Nothing wrong withthe vehicle, but insurance makes it impractical.

Salvage title is actually illegal to drive. You can buy one with a rebuilt title or Branded title. These have been repaired and inspected by the state. IN this case the Gladiator had been stolen, the insurance paid the claim and then the Gladiator was recovered. It was not damaged except...

The branded titles was because it was stolen and later recovered. The only damage supposedly was they stole the key fob. Once an insurance company pays for a stolen vehicle, it will be totaled regardless of whether there is damage. However, there was a bigger problem. The branded title means...

THank you. What is the brand name of that rack? Will it fit on a Gladiator? Can you carry kayaks and bikes at the same time?

HI; After looking at and then for a Gladiator for years, we are getting ready to buy one, possibly this week. We will be new to Jeeping and Gladiators. Our experience is limited to having ridden in Jeeps a dozen times and driving one off road four or five times. Yes we already understand...

If you want to have fun, go off road, cruise tapeless summer nights - Gladiator. If you are going to do long trips, move lots of people at a time, haul heavy loads, or tow something largeish, the RAM If you want to save money, practice your mechanics skills or stay home a lot - keep the Durango.
