  1. 6MT 3.73 - 3rd gear 2500-2900 RPM hiccup in power delivery

    I had a 2018 JLR six speed and it would do the same thing. Drove me crazy and I got rid of it six months later. I really wanted to get the six speed in my Mojave, but I heard it was still an issue. Went with the auto instead. The stutter is a result of a bad oem tune.
  2. 6 Speed Manual Regrets?

    No, they both definitely have a different feel from one another. The JK’s manual transmission was clumsy and very truck like. The JL’s manual transmission has a much better feel. However, the gearing in the JK was much much better. The JT gear spacing is horrendous. If you get the manual, be...
  3. My Gladiator is the most polarizing vehicle I’ve ever owned.

    If anything, my Gladiator has been the most polarizing vehicle I have owned for my own self. Sometimes I love it, and other times it’s a very frustrating vehicle.
  4. Bare bones sport manual

    Drive the manual then the auto. Then go back and drive the manual again. Really make sure you drive it in all conditions. I owned a 2018 JLR with a manual for five months and had to get rid of it. It’s such a horrible pairing with the 3.6 due to the spacing in the gears. 9.9 out of ten times, I...
  5. Shipping a Gladiator across the country?

    The Mojave would definitely be a step up from what you are driving. I find myself a driver that really tolerates a wide variety of driving characteristics among my vehicles. My other car is a 2021 Subaru STI and it is not the smoothest of riders. The issue with the Mojave is its loose steering...
  6. How long do you plan to keep this truck?

    I’ve bought 64 new vehicles in the past twenty years. I got my new Mojave last week. At my rate, I may keep it until the end of October. Lol
  7. Shipping a Gladiator across the country?

    I used Intercity when I bought my new corvette in 2019. It was a great experience. Not cheap, but in regards to shipping cars, you get what you pay for.
  8. Shipping a Gladiator across the country?

    They are the best in the business for sure. You can’t go wrong with them. A lot of people are suggesting a road trip. I love a road trip just as much as the next guy, but I don’t know if I would do it in a Gladiator. In my one week of owning my Mojave, I have quickly discovered she is not a...
  9. Shipping a Gladiator across the country?

    If you ship your Gladiator, use either Intercity or Reliable. Do not use a broker!
  10. People who factory ordered in july/august...

    My Mojave was ordered on July 20th. Build completed on August 18th and I picked her up on September 4th.
  11. The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

    One story was an 80 year old man and his dog. The other was an older woman as well. Probably didn’t have the strength to break the window.
  12. Which Gladiator trim (and options) is right for me?!

    Like said before me, go with the Overland. The upgrades on the Rubicon are no use to you.
  13. Gladiators in STL?

    I ordered my Mojave from Gupton near Nashville. Great experience and I recommend it to anyone.
  14. Gladiators in STL?

    Thanks. She makes my seventh “wrangler” I’ve owned. I guess I can consider her part wrangler?
  15. Gladiators in STL?

    Brought her home on Saturday!
  16. What gas are you using?

    You really can’t tell the quality of your gas or the performance of your vehicle unless you datalog. On other vehicles I have owned and datalogged, I did see a quality difference between gas brands and the way my car(s) reacted. The most consistent believe it or not was Costco. The least...
  17. Snazzberry Gladiator JT club

    Finally saw snazzberry in person on Saturday when I picked up my white Mojave. I can say that pictures don’t do the color justice. An absolutely beautiful color in person.
  18. Took Delivery of Your JT? Sign in Here!

    Took delivery of my Mojave on Saturday. This is my seventh “wrangler.” In the past, I have owned 1986 CJ7, 1987 YJ, 2003 TJ, 2012 JK, 2016 JKUW and a 2018 JLR. Sold my 2019 Ram last month. Would of liked to have another two door, but still need a truck. The Mojave was a great compromise. She...
  19. Gupton Motors up to 8% below invoice

    Oh, I thought it was Phil. Sorry about that! On another note, your Jeep could be there. This was just one of the rows of Jeeps. There were plenty other Jeeps there. They told me they get two to three delivery trucks a day there. ?
  20. Gupton Motors up to 8% below invoice

    You are right, cars are way to expensive these days. Maybe I’m just getting old. I think everything is too expensive these days. My truck had a sticker price of 52k. This truck is definitely not a 52k truck. Actually, I don’t think it’s worth what I paid with the discount, but it was the...
