How much of the savings on the EV's is in avoiding the gas tax or has CA closed that loophole? Eventually the states will start sending bills to EV owners for miles driven to reclaim the lost gas tax revenue. I take it CA has some pretty high gas taxes that if factored in would reduce the...
I have mixed feelings on this whole "blowing grass in the road" that seems to constantly pop up.
Sometimes it sounds as if this is the most dangerous thing for a motorcycle rider when I feel it's the least of the worries.
I rode motorcycles for 50 years until I decided to give it up due to...
I think Virginia has changed some of these laws since this article was written, but it is a good read. I read it back around 2014, and ever since then, when I hit the Virginia state line, you don't want to be behind me.
I drive 5 under, and in construction zones, I drive 10 under. I am not...
Wow. I have to say if your Jeep actually looked like it did in your picture that is not muddy at all. Hell, the road to my sister's house is a publicly maintained dirt road and it is a muddy mess whenever it rains. EVERY vehicle that drives on it to get to their home is caked in mud. It's...
Get a cover for it and just cover it.
I cover the camper every fall for the winter, and it is amazing how little weathering is on it after six years—decals all like new, etc.
With a car cover, you have a non-issue. Just buy a good one and don't cheap out. This brand looks good. USA Made and a...
Everything is fine with your Jeep. Here is another thread that beat this to death on the Wrangler forums and another thread from this forum. The consensus is this is normal so you have your answer confirmed by many Jeep owners. You don't have an issue...
Uhaul trailers are about 2,200 lbs, + you said the truck was about 6,500, so let's round down to 6,000 + weight of Mojave, which is about 4,900 lbs, so your GCWR is 14,700 with those numbers. It is way over the GCWR of any Gladiator or Mohave, regardless of the engine or package. You're just...
Doesn't look like there was some sway there...there was a lot of sway there!
He was one emergency maneuver away from having 14,000 lbs of scrap metal for his estate to dispose of.
No one ever mentions the savings from evading the gasoline taxes. The government will eventually have to close that loophole and start charging per mile driven to make up for the loss in taxes from Gasoline sales. Once EV usage becomes more mainstream do you think the Fed and States will just...
It's not so much the weight as it is the giant sail some of these campers create.
I towed a 26' 4500lb trailer across the US in 2020 with a 1500 Ram with the 5.7 Hemi and it was a long month and a total of 8200 miles. It towed it and made it but above 60 that Hemi wanted to be at 4000 rpms and...
Looks like adaptive cruise is standard but I didn't see any mention of LED lights? Did I miss it or does it have this great package and those Halogen headlamps?
Today it was 9 degrees out and some awesome snow. I purposely went out and found a snowy back road, yanked her into 4 wheel and enjoyed some rural winter scenery.
Keep it in the garage and it will last a bit longer but you'll miss out on all the fun in the snow. These things thrive in the...
Really impressive!! What a lot of work! Makes $4k for a Smart Cap look like a deal after seeing how much work is involved. Can't wait to see the finished product.
Yeah, the 4-wheel drive on my Jeep Gladiator takes me back to the 70's 4 wheel-drive trucks! Constantly shifting in and out when the conditions are mixed snow and dry areas.
This type of system was actually a HUGE step up in the '70s, as you didn't have to get in and out to lock in the hubs, so...
These things are showing discounts of $14K off sticker all over the place. Granted the Jeep site is only showing 192 Mojave's nationwide with a Manual Tranny but it might be worth doing a search, seeing if there is something you can accept that isn't quite what you want but can live with for 14K...
I was very surprised at how easy it is to drive and how comfortable I am in it. I have a full-size GMC Denali 1500 diesel with super cruise and love it. But since getting the GLadiator, I have put 400 miles on the GMC and 4000 miles on the Gladiator! I just find myself jumping in it instead of...
