So when I bought my new to me ‘21 Gladiator from CarMax I requested none of the Sirius XM services. I specifically said no, none, nothing. They did their part. The first time I take it into my local Jeep dealer for the rear axle leak diagnosis they, without my permission, signed me up for a...

Nope. Just bought a ‘21 Gladiator Willys and it only had 10k miles on it, ready it for towing behind motorhome. The truck weighs in at 4,880 with full tank of gas. I have no facts other than the weight difference between a JLU and a 4xE, but I have to believe the Gladiator hybrid will be more...

not sure where you are but here in central sc even in the winter yard guys come blow leaves, trim bushes, … but I do agree revenue slacks off.

Low overhead business. $60 an hour equates to $124,800 a year. Not bad for cutting grass and pulling weeds. Here in SC that would be a good job.

Gee I wonder how many shares of company stock is held by the pension fund? Or for those that now have 401k’s have the matching funds in company stock? Or retired workers’ IRA’s? I once had a golfing buddy who was 1000% pro union state he couldn’t care less about the stock market. I mentioned to...

I’d do as above and borrow the truck where you can place the top in the bed. Less chance to damage the top of your truck. Right tool for the job.

So I bought one of these...

Thanks. I’ll give a look.

Hey wolf island driver, could you let me know what Bt dongle you’re using and would you recommend it? Thanks. Tired of cables.

I use CarPlay mostly but sometimes I have a short ride, phone in pocket, just let it connect by BT. Haven’t bought a BT dongle yet.

Have you tried connecting your phone via Bluetooth and using maps on the phone with the audio playing through the car unit? Works well with mine. Does everything work correctly between the iPhone and uconnect going thru Bluetooth? Music, phone, contacts? My 14 works well and has since I got...

After posting the above I rechecked the dates. Sorry old story.

Jeep recall

I did not know D cells were 9 volts!

I’ve towed a JK ht Wrangler, and now Gladiator. You do NOT want the steering wheel locked, bad things will happen. Modern Jeeps Wranglers don’t lock, neither does the Gladiator. There have been instances of a “Death Wobble” with some Jeeps in the past but seems to be quite rare. I use the NSA...

Dealer adds have been part of new car sales all my car buying life, over 50 years. Want $$ for a spray can of Scotch Guard, or a good wax job. Tell them you’re not paying for the scam, and be prepared to walk. Nitrogen in tires is nonsense for 99% of owners, a warranty doesn’t cost anything...

My new to me Gladiator has black rims, thing is they were a compromise. I’m not a fan of black or most other color rims. Black makes me think of the 50’s or 60’s when people would remove the hub caps exposing the painted rims. Looked like crap then, not much better now. Beauty is a personal...

I bought a twice owned Gladiator this past June with just over 10k miles. So far I’ve put on just over 2k.

This is also why companies move offshore and to right to work states. wanting a 46% pay increase, same wage for less work are both indefensible. Want a return to a pension system for new hires is a non starter IMO. Employees, especially new hires, need to plan for their own retirement.

Lawyers! You have to agree not to be messing with the stuff while driving.
