I don’t think you understand the economics behind platform separation. Tell me specifically which engine the Ford F-150 full size truck shares with the Ford ranger mid size truck. And then tell me specifically why you believe there isn’t one. It’s economics. Plain and simple. We already know FCA...

And generally the people who think it will happen dream about it happening without reasoning why it won’t happen. Editing this for further reasoning, look at Ford and Chevy. Neither of them offer a single engine crossover between their full size and midsize trucks. FCA offers two. The other...

The 4xe isn’t a direct compete with full size. Until it is, which I don’t doubt will happen at some point but for now it’s not. Point being, there is a reason they went with a midsize platform in the Jeep and stayed there ending the rumor mill on the Dakota revival. When they rebranded to Ram...

I actually found more utility in having a plastic drop in liner in my old truck. The grit in the spray in is nice to keep the load from shifting, but sliding things in and out like a 150lb fish house sled is much easier with the drop in. I wouldn’t want to pay the extra money for lineX because I...

I see the comment on here a lot that people want a faster gladiator or they want a regular production 5.7. Hate to break it to you but that won’t happen. FCA ended the production of the Dakota to focus on the full size truck market and they didn’t bring it back because the expectation was that...

Mud flaps. I drove around for 2 weeks in my Willys after I bought it and immediately realized I was going to lose a lot of paint after our sandy and salty slush winters with the MT tires. I may even try to find some black JL or Jk take offs and put ATs on for winter driving. Really would like...

The Patagonia by milestar is made by Nankang. I had a set of nankang conquerer at5 tires on my lifted WK and I can’t say enough good things about those tires. My wife has a set of nankang sport sp9 tires on her car as well and at the price point they kill everything on the market.

Light work, pretty impressed actually. These things have great brakes.

Willys at work. I have snap caps for the lock cylinders coming today and a black stubby antenna. All that’s left to blacken are the tail lights. I call it “Threat level midnight”

I went through a similar situation with my Titan. I had some steering clunks and other dash noises. The closest dealer is 45 minutes from me. The dealer I bought from was 2.5hrs. So I took it to the close one. Bunch of a-holes. So the next work I had done went to the dealer I bought from...

Did you do the KBB cash offer? I traded a ‘17 Titan on my 21 JT back in June. I had been tracking the pricing since I bought the Titan last year because I discovered after driving it for awhile that I couldn’t stand it. Anyways when I finally decided to make the swap the KBB figure was the...

That’s the 13”. I bought the 16”.

Hey I got those same guards. They don’t quite cover as much real estate as I hoped but they’re pretty nice. So far I’ve added to my black Willys the sill guards, weathertech mud flaps, black snap caps to cover the key cylinders on the front doors, and my black antenna should arrive tomorrow. The...

What length is that one out of curiosity? I think the one I ordered is 16”

I see an awful lot of wildland fire outfits using side by sides. This doesn’t seem that outlandish to me to be a practical unit with better utility than a side by side. Having been red carded at one time and now working at a USFWS office, I can tell you there’s a lot more to wildland, grass and...

Sorry to revive an old thread, I just bought the Ksa auto one from amazon. They’re offering free one day shipping and a $2 discount (so $24.99). After looking at the reviews of the rugged ridge, rydonair, and the weird off “VOFONO” brands across amazon it looks like the ksa gets better reviews...

Jeep wave was applied to all 2021 vehicles. It only applies to some 2020 vehicles per their website. It provides an unlimited mile extension to the 3/36 factory warranty. The power train warranties for either gas or diesel dont change. The tech guy at the dealership signed me up while I sat with...

I don’t know if it had anything to do with cruise control but I did find it odd that progressive gave me a discount on the 2021 gladiator from my 2017 Titan. Not hugely significant, about $55 less on the 6 month rate between the two. The wrangler was always prorated higher due to glass coverage...

You got sting gray and granite crystal metalic. If you need more shades of gray buy the book.

I put them on my work bench with intentions of sticking them to random crap, never stick them to random crap, then throw them away when I clean my garage once a year. Seems like the system works pretty well. Few years back I bought a budget lift for my WK from rough country. I could not believe...
