The 8 speed does change things. Yet it all depends and what your figuring in for the price to be worth it. Fuel mileage aside you need to think about the added strain on the drivetrain, not only due to tire size but weight as well. Who knows how long the 8 speed will last with the extra strain...
I just put 3100 miles on mine in the last 7 days with some off roading in Ouray Co and Moab Ut and was comfortable the whole time. I could drive mine all day everyday. I have a 2017 Ram 3500 Limited and find the Gladiator seats far more comfortable that it has. Not as roomy by far. But way more...
Just wondering what air bags people are using. I just drove from West Virginia to San diego in a stock Rubicon. Bed was fully loaded. Had enough weight in the bed to about level the truck but did notice some high beam flashes and on some of the Interstates across Utah had some pretty big dips...
Sweet. Just read through that other thread And got all the answers i needed. Thanks for letting me know about it. Talk about a thread turning into conversation alley though. Lol
I feel ya completely buddy. I had my first JT for 3 months and i got rear ended. I got my insurance involved first and they had an adjuster come to me. Insurance will not repair frame damage. They will replace the frame if its cost efficient. I also needed a whole new bed and cab corner and a...
I got the same problem. My punkin gladiator got a grey dash. I am also looking to get a red dash. I have read plenty of people on here that dont like the red dash. Gotta be some people willing to do some trades on here
Guy was going about 35. I was stopped and heard his tires lock up but not for long. He admitted he was not paying attention. Also it pushed me into the Jeep in front of me. Bent his spare tire rack but no other damage to his.
Mine got rear ended and pushed into another jeep in front of me. Biggest damage was frame and bed. Insurance totaled it because the frame was on a 9 month backorder. And bed was on a 6 month backorder. Long story short i got a new Gladiator on the way.
That sucks. I had 0 issues with mine. And i ran it pretty hard. And for leaking i had the passenger side freedom panel leak one time driving in the rain but i undid the latches and wiggled it a bit and latchet it back and it stopped leaking.
Im actually not really happy about the punkin rubi not having a red dash. I have a punkin on the way because my first gladiator got totaled when i got rear ended. And my wife and i both liked the red dash quite a bit. We shall see i guess.
Also you can do whatever you want to make anything pull more and more and more until you have to hit the brakes. The more it weighs the more inertia you gotta get stopped. And the extra stuff in the Rubicon factors in. Just take a Rubicon and a Sport S with the max towing package both empty and...
