Yep! I’d still be rocking my S8 if work didn’t force Apple on us. That said, Apple has made the OS update to allow the manufacturers (FCA and whoever the supplier is for the 7.0 - Panasonic?) to manipulate the screen display size. Ball is in their court to make it work as intended, but...

Be aware that if you enjoy Apple CarPlay, the display shrinks down to about 5” when using the 7.0” UConnect whereas it stays full screen for the 8.4”. This is my top complaint with my 7.0” and it is not cheap to change out to an 8.4” later. Typical price for a used one is about $1000 for the...

Have you considered something like @ACE Engineering ’s motor flip kit to get it out of the way? https://aceengineeringandfab.com/products/electronic-sway-bar-flip-kit

How much cash are you looking for on top of the black hard top?

Anyone out there mounting awnings to their rigs? What are your thoughts? I’m having a difficult time finding the direction I want to go with the bed of my truck and I feel that a mounted awning may be a driver of that decision. Seeing excellent innovation of the likes of @WhatExit? with low...

Excellent! Thank you!

Not to keep bugging, but did you ground your CB radio and multiplexor separately? I get great FM reception, but my SWR is at about 2.4 after attempting to tune the CB earlier today. As it sits now I’ve got both my CB and the multiplexor grounded to the same stud in the passenger kick panel. I...

I am FAR from a comms expert and even further from an enthusiast. My focus was a hidden setup and I wanted a single antenna to keep it that much more minimal. I’ve seen many people use it without issue, but I also only have a 2’ FireStik and am concerned I should have gone for a 3’. Back to the...

I just got back from trying to tune mine and got it to about 2.4 for both channel 1 and 40. I’m going to chase a new ground and may give yours a shot. I’m currently using one of the studs in the passenger kick panel, but I’m sharing it with the Rugged Ridge multiplexor (combines FM and CB to use...

:LOL::LOL::LOL:

Well by then they will have come out with five more models. How will you decide between the Lunar and Mariana Trench editions??

The oaks with Spanish Moss are mega down here. I take a canopy road where they make a tunnel to get out to the neighborhood from the city. Some pretty rides out here!

Is something like this an option? A Softtopper with a RTT doesn’t sound so bad!

:LOL::LOL: “The Gladiator is on Struggle Street” Turns out the writer of the article just wanted another clickable title. Once again, no real facts or really anything tangible. The author just doesn’t seem to like the JT nor the price. Yet his quotes are from a dealer that sells 15-25 a month...

Took it to closing on the new crib!

In retrospect I wish I checked the LED box when ordering. I had no idea the halogens would be as terrible as they are! That said, I’d prefer a stubby. I think I’m most disappointed that the OEM steel bumper isn’t winch ready. It’s arguably the best looking for the Jeep, though!

I say it in jest as a slight jab to jalopnik, not the article in itself. I’ve just read a lot of things from them where first-to-post and click bait titles held higher regard than actual content.

No issues with mounting. All is in place. Mine is a 2’, but I haven’t yet tuned it for SWR to determine if it is an acceptable height. Aesthetically and physical functionality the 2’ is preferred as it is below the roofline to avoid hitting things. Functionality of the radio itself is yet to...

This has to be the biggest cluster of a thread :LOL:
