It's just GM.
From what I've seen in the past, the UAW will pick one of the big three for an initial strike to push them into bargaining. They'll then use that contract as the basis of negotiating with the other two.
I speculate that Ford and FCA are seen as the weaker of the three companies...
We can’t figure that without the EPA rating or the actual price of the option. We don’t even have good speculation on the milage yet. The price MIGHT be $4995.
That said, the ROI isn’t going to be great and, IMO, no one should buy this engine for that reason. The real reason is to take...
I’d search the compressor threads on the JL forums. I think there are some kits that let you mount it under the Wrangler, in the frame rails. That may still be a viable option for the Gladiator.
I’ve got the ARB twin compressor for my JLU. I’m still trying to figure out where I’m going to put...
I like your ARB Twin Compressor location. I may go with something similar.
I’m also thinking of mounting it under a diamondback tonneau cover, if I get one.
Travel costs is one thing some people tend to forget about. For you there is an obvious benefit here. For me, in Colorado, the difference of a few percentage points still makes it worth buying locally if I can get 3% below invoice. There is also the cost of my personal time, which I place a high...
Dealers have multiple ways to make money beyond margins and holdback. In Dennis Dillon's case, you HAVE to use FCA financing for at least 6months. They make their money on that. Dealers also get monthly bonuses for making specific sales numbers. They make money on add ons and dealer fees. They...

Quadratec has issues with their supply management systems. It's so bad that sometimes their website states that a product is IN STOCK when it hasn't even been released for sale by the manufacturer. I had that problem when DV8 was getting ready to release their Tailgate Mounted Tire...
For me, it comes down to the body color of the JT. Gator Green looks spectacular with black fenders. However, Hydro Blue and Firecracker Red look best with color matched fenders.
As for paint scratching, just put a clear wrap on them for extra protection.
I'll give you some things to think about on this.
1. Katskin seat covers cost roughly the same as getting leather.
2. it is EASY to upgrade the 7" uConnect to the 8.4". There is a thread on it in the Audio/Electronics forum on JLWranglerForums.com
3. On the flip side, the Overland lets you get...
A grille is only about $200 and you don't even have to paint it. If you go that route, I'm sure you'll be able to find a buyer for a hydro blue grille. Someone will want to either replace a damaged one or have blue as an accent color.
