I got my 2020 Sport S for ~38k (stickered $41,835) in June of 2020 and while that's less than MSRP it's certainly not on the level of Gupton's 5%+ below invoice pricing (which I would agree deserves the title "deal of a lifetime" for most folks). I got into a 35 mph crash in April that impacted...

Got the call. They say it's finally ready. I'm going to try to pick it up tomorrow. ?

Yeah getting rid of my Jeep was the last thing on my mind 7 months ago. But now? It's only the hassle of finding something else to replace it with (along with selling it) that keeps me from jumping right to that conclusion too. And then what would I get to replace it? Buying another Jeep...

LOL it's like an arms race on the roads with you guys. What did Gandhi say? "Bright ass headlights for bright ass headlights will leave the whole world blind" I like my halogens. I am the type of person who would prefer less artificial light unless it's absolutely necessary. I use my high...

Well it's now been 7 months. They said 2 weeks ago it should be ready last Friday; that didn't happen. When I called on Tuesday she said "We were checking it all over and found out your fog light wasn't working". Mind you, that is one of the first parts they ordered/replaced back in April...

Do you leave your headlights on auto or turn them to on/off each time? I wonder if that makes a difference.

There is about a 0.5% chance of it randomly failing while they were working on it and about a 99.5% chance they damaged the pins taking the door on/off. First, if you can, I would have them put in writing that they did in fact disconnect the electrical harness at the passenger door - the one...

That's definitely not a recoverable shoulder. I wouldn't want to have to sit on board that was forced to prioritize projects. Too much to do and far too little money to work with. There are so many 2 lane roads in my area with open ditches that it'd be impossible to fix them all.

Find out if she's got someone who can lend her a vehicle. Most insurance only covers 30 days. I sincerely hope they decide to total it for one of the reasons put forth (roll over, on roof, etc). If they decide to pursue repairs, I wish you all luck and patience in the world. I got a call...

Not jumper cables, but I did buy a cheapish air compressor off of Amazon in the hopes that I would one day get to visit a trail that required me to air down. In the ensuing year and a half (including 6+ months in the shop) I've used it probably 2 dozen times to either top off low tires or fill...

Yes, it was my fault many posts ago for using the wrong terminology (please don't sue me) but for the past several months I've corrected it and I am talking with the ADJUSTER. They are a dealership that has been in business since 1988. Certainly their techs and mechanics could be clueless, but...

I agree and the insurance agency couldn't seem to care less about it. I guess because the adjuster has a function car to drive and hasn't been bumming rides for 6+ months.

I would've thought so, but the last big ticket items only had me at ~37% (need 70% to total). I know these parts now are probably only a couple thousand (?). Unfortunately I don't think the math adds up yet - BUT (and a huge BUTT) they literally have no idea what the scope is because... This...

Previously on "Never Going to See My Jeep Again": (edited for brevity and poor memory) Our protagonist found himself frustrated but ultimately hopeful that his ordeal would soon be coming to a close. After all, how long could it take to ship "bushings" and the folks at the dealer body shop...

This is my favorite part. It's clearly not just a repurposed front/rear door and if it's functional that would've required some interesting electrical work. I feel like even most limos only have 4 doors, maybe a fifth. The break over ain't great but it's sitting a lot higher than me.

173 days and counting (5 months 20 days). I talked to them today and "we're still waiting on 'bushings' - but hopefully they'll get here tomorrow because it's saying they're in transit". I spoke with them 14 days ago and we were still waiting on the same parts then so no update at all in two...

I sure hope they decide they are a "lifestyle pick-up truck brand" and not "we'll make a pickup truck in 5 year runs ever other decade brand". Why are they not just being more outright with where they are going to take the Gladiator platform? What is the point of teasing models several years...

Started off with just body work, bumper, fog lights, fender. Next was frame and axle housing. That was the biggest wait as there was no movement for over a month before I finally called Jeep Cares and opened a case. Next was engine mount brackets. I can understand the part delays to an...

Glad they gave you a loaner. Today marks 5 months my gladiator has been in the shop for repair after a relatively small collision. Supposedly I'll be getting it back by the end of next week.

I can't imagine what a six story duck would look like floating down the river... but I'd like to find out.
