You got that right. Very odd stuff. Mine only beeps a few times when I leave the local food store and don't have any beer in the bags. Not sure how it knows that, but it may be part of the Active Safety package that detects vehicles in your blind spots and then detects the lack of beer in the...

Wow, good idea. Thanks. Will keep that in mind and not blast the next door neighbors if I come in later at night and want to move the trash cans to the street for the morning pickup. Also, handy to know if I want to make off with a JT I see running at a convenience store. I won't fully close...

If I get out of my JT while it is running and have the keys in my pocket (which I rarely do, I just leave them in the console), yes, the horn does sound 3 times. Probably a setting I can turn off somewhere.

Maybe we'll get the 250th Anniversary model in honor of the Chief. Maybe Red with White and Blue decals with stars on them. And a check engine light feature that randomly displays error codes that make no sense.

Thanks for the info. I will check there.

OK, thanks. I was just getting my hopes up. I think it would be a good product that would sell given all the Jeeps out there (and other vehicles too) that have unused rocker panel things in their dashboards.

Nice! I am actually writing this for my other Jeep, a '16 JKU. I am changing the radio to a Jenson that Crutchfield recommended (my original factory one is dying). They said there is a USB port behind the radio which then basically results in a wire hanging down on the floor or thereabouts. I do...

Wow ....... I see we are comparing Gladiators to BMW's. Next, we compare Bobcats to Lamborginis. If I really like yellow, then I'll buy the Bobcat.

Yea, I know. But we can fantasize.

Ok, the 6th of 12 editions or something just got released. Great graphics, pretty colors, I guess. Supposedly a '70s or 80s thing. OK, next. How about a REAL special edition. Like a Gladiator with a bit larger and skinnier steering wheel. Take out the front part of the console and put a real...

Yes, that's another issue with some of the new motors, even the 2.0 turbo in the Wrangler. Many of these motors (like my wife's 2.0 BMW) want 91 octane fuel. At least my wife's car's specs mention that although 91 octane is recommended, you can still use 89 octane which she uses all the time...

OK, so the size of the 5.7 and 6.4 are about the same. But would the 5.7 get significantly better gas mileage? I mean, the window stickers on the Wranglers (Moab) with the 6.4 get combined 14mpg. And that's in a Wrangler. I wonder what it would get in a heavier Gladiator? I don't care what the...

Not sure which Mojave you have and what you have done to it or who made that offer (private, Carmax, ???) but if I was offered anything close to 30k on a 2021 and can buy a Mojave X here (I see you are in Florida and see stuff on a lot of dealers' websites) for about 51-55k or a standard Mojave...

The topic of the thread is is like asking what is better, a pair of boots or a pair of running shoes.

For all the smart people here thinking about the 5.7, it that engine physically smaller than the 6.4 or is it just a matter of the 6.4 with a larger hole bored into each cylinder? I'm just thinking in terms of cooling and more room under the hood.

You said it all .... "You buy a Gladiator because you want a Jeep but need a truck." Amen. Again, my towing normally is limited to about 8 miles R/T to the marina where I keep it. It's a totally flat road when I bring it home a few times a year unless we have a hurricane warning here in the FL...

Whether anyone cares or not, I was skeptical of buying the Mojave instead of my Rubicon because I felt that the engineers must have some reason for the lower towing rating. I was thinking that it likely had to do with the suspension and tongue weight considerations. Sure the Mojave can pull the...

I totally agree. I was just responding to an OP comment that a salesman at a Jeep dealership thought that all Gladiators have the same towing capacity. So he left and went to another dealership to purchase one. I was indirectly trying to say that he likely knew more about Jeeps than any...

I see you are in Mississippi where there "may" be more people who understand Jeeps but even then, salespeople are salespeople. If you think the salesman at your dealer doesn't understand tow ratings, think about those of us in or closer to urban areas. I have lived in the Miami area for about...

Hit someone in a car, cause bodily harm and have your alcohol blood test at .07 Hit someone in a car, cause bodily harm and have your alcohol blood test at .09 (DUI is .08) Barely notice it yourself. But go to court and see what happens.
