  1. What Tires and Why?

    Just for clarity, everyone is talking about these being LT (Light Truck) tires, right? Both stock tire options for the JT (A/T and M/T’s) are JT... (Opps, Freudian Whip, errr Freudian Slip, I must have JT on the brain!) ... both are LT Falken tires. ALSO here is a really good tire test...
  2. Post your 2020 JT Gladiator build status

    So catch me up... they used to be VIN’s, what’s a VON?
  3. Crash Testing... Any Info, thoughts, facts - to discuss!

    So in looking up the USA crash test it says it hasn’t been done?!? https://www.nhtsa.gov/vehicle/2018/JEEP/WRANGLER Any one know why it hasn’t been tested and what timeframe manufacturers are allowed before testing must occur? Search site for other Wrangler years and couldn’t find any with a...
  4. Crash Testing... Any Info, thoughts, facts - to discuss!

    Here is the Euro test, agree that it is different to US testing, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t things to learn. Agree that I read it with a grain of salt. Test not cratering for aggressive off-road vehicles. https://www.euroncap.com/en/results/jeep/wrangler/34192 BUT the adult occupant...
  5. Crash Testing... Any Info, thoughts, facts - to discuss!

    Congrats to all that have been able to order the LE! The rest of the world just has to wait! I do want to start a conversation about crash testing, any known data, rumours, facts. Being the JL suffered a one star (with some true issues being uncovered and some seemingly poor planning by...

    HA! Funny how Jeepers, sailors, campers, caravaner can all hook up and chat online and have a great time! No worries on your post-a-matic-frenzy friend, you can't be American and be thin skinned in Australia; I'm no shrinking violet regardless! Just a side note, the website is to a Jeep...

    Yep. First job in the US outta the gate was two weeks vacation. Australia gives everyone 4 weeks. So a lot more Jeep time up our sleeves.

    Ha ha! it's not "my" website, a Jeep Mate... as I told you... re-read your OWN posts, the only troll seems to be your foolish responses to anything you don't like ... you post a fair bit of inaccurate things, is it to increase your posting numbers.? .. fine, post and dribble away... but...

    Ha! Nah, I've lived in AU for a decade... just get back for holidays and vacations at times... I sail. Bought a yacht in Mexico and spent six months cruising Mexico before taking a year to cross the South Pacific. We then raced her in the Sydney Hobart yacht race (one of the more difficult...

    Mate! Can you please bother to do a little bit of research before you post. I saw you earlier commenting on winning a prize for the most JL/Gladiator posts. sooo if your going to comment on Euro ratings, or the average AU income, at least bother to look into it before you just drop useless...

    G’Day! But I’m a California boy over here. Aussie’s do love their Toyota’s, and all 4wd utes (mid-sized trucks) so the Gladiator should sell ok here. I’m laughing at y’all complaining about the JL price. It was just FINALLY released in Australia and a full kitted Rubicon is almost AU $80K...

    I disagree with your above STATEMENT Jeep seriously F$@@ up crash testing and possible engineering designs on the JL, will the Gladiator have similar issues? Read Euro crash testing shows: 1.) passenger AND driver have massive chest and thigh damage at 60kph- 40mph!! 2.) the roll cage and...
  13. What Jeep Gladiator aftermarket products would you like to see?

    How about a 1.) fuel tank that replaces the spare tire and transfers into the main tank... then would need a spare tire carrying option. 2.) side mirror delete, replaced with small cameras on booms that extend for towing and have a small LCD that is on dash corners for viewing like the mirrors...
  14. **2020 Jeep Gladiator official pics and specs**

    She's finally seen... profs to FCA, as I love leaks like this to get us all salivating! Questions and some opinions: Rear door windows - do the new JL's have that partial moving - partial fixed, rear window as well? Not a fan of the smaller portion rolling down to make room for that HUGE...
  15. Verified: 2020 JT Gladiator Pickup Truck Production Starts January 2019, Order Banks Open in Jan/Feb

    Great info, thanks all! I’m a Californian that’s been in Australia for the last decade plus. I grew up with a ā€˜73 Bronco that Dad let me learn to 4wd in. Had a ā€˜98 and ā€˜00 Ram quad 4wd, but was working silly hours and afraid to scratch the black paint! Now I’m late 40’s and have a ā€˜10 Jeep...
