That sucks, and I know it's frustrating. I am being told over and over "we can't get an ETA on your parts - they are backordered with no date" and it's now been at the dealer 11 weeks (waiting on a frame, not related to any engine problems). I would say in your situation to contact your...

Irish whiskey, Venezuelan rum, and American IPA

Glad you're getting a new one. I'm stuck in limbo... they want to completely replace my frame with a new one. I wish I had been totaled!

Hard top would make more sense at that price to me. I ended up with the "Popular equipment" package in 2020 IIRC - hard top, tow upgrade (not max tow), and 7" display but it was a lot cheaper option. It didn't come with nearly as much, but that is a double edge sword if you don't want...

I like that they've got a steel bumper package for the Sport S trim but I'm not sure I'd want the rest at that price. Seems like it still comes with the plastic rear bumper?

Well I don't feel quite as bad now about my dealer experience. (unless it's the same guys) on a side note, anyone know where they ship spare frames from? They are telling me there's no way to tell how long it'll take, only that it's got to arrive on a truck (doesn't everything?).

Guess I learned I'm not the only one who hasn't had a haircut in 2 years now. I have had to learn a lot of things the hard way over the last two years. I never knew my hair was wavy/curly for starters (and that it gets tangled really easily). I was using a stretchy "fast dry" headband and...

I was on the side of "never" as I like the color and enjoyed what I have. But the dealership is in the process of replacing the frame and I'm thinking it's just time to let it go whenever I eventually get it back. I doubt I'll get another stab at gator but if I do order a new one I know where...

It sounds like you are well aware of the potential for it to go wrong, and taking precautions in the off chance that it does. When I first started kayaking I would carry them on top of my sedan with foam blocks and ratchet straps. I always made sure to have four attachment points, two on the...

My parents would use a "kid-sized" .22 with the subsonic rounds for squirrels. We also had a British pellet gun that used an odd size (5mm?) and that thing would drop a squirrel pretty quickly. That being said, if you are trapping them a bucket of water is a lot more reliable and quiet. I...

Yes, that was my mistake. I am still a bit new to all of this. I have been communicating with my insurance adjustor all this time.. I have an independent agent who I haven't spoken to in ages. I'm sorry as I think that is causing a lot of confusion. edit: "Field Claims Superintendent" -...

I feel like the assumption being made by the agent and the body shop (dealer) is that this will not be a totaled vehicle, and I could understand that given the high value of the truck and the low initial repair estimate (<$2000). I brought this up again with the body shop manager, who said...

I called again today (since they wouldn't return my voicemail from last week). I spoke to the body shop manager this time as he picked up the phone. He says "looks like it's at the service department. You need a new frame and a new axle housing. I'm typing up the claim adjustment now" Well...

Insurance agent is apparently on vacation until June 6th. **** me. I need a vacation myself, but no vehicle makes that a bit hard to manage.

Don't worry, they'll be getting called out when I get my Jeep back (or a check from the insurance company) and the appropriate 1* reviews on every website I can find. For shits and giggles, I checked their reviews on google and all of the employees (5 that I could identify) have left 5*...

Do you have the option of taking two vehicles? Just haven't heard that mentioned yet. Yes, you have to split up the family and burn 2x as much gas but there's lots of room to carry whatever you want. We have two dogs and two kids too. If we have to load up in one vehicle it's the wife's...

Good news, ok news, bad news. Good news: went to traffic court yesterday and won! No more ticket at least, and don't let anyone tell you it doesn't feel good to hear "not guilty" from the judge. Ok news: Insurance agent forwarded me an email at the beginning of the week saying they had...

Never thought I'd see people arguing against airbags. Oh well, if that's your starting point I don't think even the most gifted orator could change your mind. Perhaps a bad accident would, though.

There are several threads on this, and not a single one of them starts "I was having trouble with the electrical connector so I forced it into place." Sure, I doubt someone would mention intentionally breaking it, but given the desire to have it fixed honesty is a good starting point. It's not...

Budget and aesthetics will probably make your decision easier. Do you want it to sit flush? Do you have >$1000 to spend? There are a lot of options here. I got the gator hard tri-fold, and it takes only a min or so to take it off (4 plastic knobs on mine). I know they sell ones that stick...
