  1. Is the diesel gladiator worth it?

    I literally couldn't even go 55 on a flat road and get that lol. No idea... ha. I believe people are getting it, I just wasn't able to. Maybe I wasn't using being soft enough on the gas. Also summer has killed my mileage because I've been mostly city driving lately with high temps and no...
  2. Is the diesel gladiator worth it?

    Never saw that on my Rubicon, even bone stock, flat road at 65. More like 23. My first 3500 miles were 90% highway. With 37's (KO2) on stock wheels, winch up front and 4 1/2" springs I'm at 21-22 mpg. So only a 1 mpg drop, same conditions. Assumes light wind... out the door in strong winds.
  3. Is the diesel gladiator worth it?

    If you're not towing and you just want more torque for the added rotational mass you're adding, yes, I believe so.
  4. 2022 Jeep Gladiator Order Banks & Production Start Dates

    It was a typo as I ordered well past that date and still got a '21 VIN.
  5. Gupton Motors up to 8% below invoice

    In my experience the high volume dealers will quote trade at the lowest possible KBB number. My $.02. Peterson would have been $15k lower on trade for my ā€˜19 JLUR vs a local guy ( based on the lowest KBB) and the local guy still gave me $5k off MSRP on the new one plus tax savings on top. YMMV
  6. Oh snap there might be a DPF Delete now :D

    It’s probably impossible to have a productive conversation on this topic on the internet lol. I hear you though and I doubt anyone would say their intention is to make others suffer and have dirtier air. I’m all for electric but it’s a balance while we all go through that change. As far as...
  7. Oh snap there might be a DPF Delete now :D

    Yeah that was my reason for not deleting — also no dealer will ever take one and reinstalling everything … yeah. Not worth it.
  8. Mojave Bump Stops

    Well, it would be $300 for a new one from Fox that performs better ;)
  9. First time service, oil etc

    I'm at ~6000 miles with my EcoDiesel and I'm still at 35% oil life. It sounds like right around 10k will be correct for me.
  10. 3.73 gearing with 37s

    It really depends on what motor you have. From my experience, the 2.0L/3.6 was just fine with light 37's on stock wheels with spacers. I.e., KO2's. However, when I ran my Nitto's on beadlocks, good lord, it was awful with the 2.0. I mean freeway speeds I was under 10 mpg, and it just became...
  11. Let's see all those Gladiators with a FULL vinyl wrap!

    Yea, no shock there -- labor is probably double what it is in most areas. I think in Scottsdale we're around $4500.
  12. Eco Diesel lift

    forgot to update sig I guess I’m running their 4 1/2ā€ springs so I can swap to my beadlock wheels with 40’s for moab each year. I run 37ā€ KO2’s daily on stock wheels with spacers. Helps with break over angle anyway and I still get over 22-23 mpg with the setup if I didn’t wheel it I’d probably...
  13. Eco Diesel lift

    The RK springs were too stiff in the front in terms of ride and just felt bumpy on road. The evo springs rode a little softer. This was with a winch, steel bumper. It’s personal preference I use the gladiator for camping and couldn’t be happier with the setup. The kings would have been fine I...
  14. Eco Diesel lift

    I have a set of new kings (2.5 with adjusters!) for sale front and rear for the gladiator if you decide that’s the route you want to go. Would sell them at a fair discount off new. I ordered both the Fox3.0’s and kings, ended up not being able to return the kings. I also have a set of RK...
  15. Let's see all those Gladiators with a FULL vinyl wrap!

    Yep, I'd like to see them as well. I've been considering wrapping mine.
  16. First JT with OEM factory Halfdoors?

    Half doors are one of those things you don’t really understand until you have them, and then go wheeling IMO. I didn’t love them until then and now I can’t wait to have a set again on my (new) two door. I have them for the JK as well. that said I don’t think I’ll get them for the gladiator—...
  17. Badges earned in Ocala Nat’l Forest

    If you're afraid of pin striping, you could always put PPF on the sides of the vehicle. It's expensive, but it's better than buying a different vehicle to run trails if that's your thing. It's stopped pin striping on my vehicle on at least one trail where another Gladiator got pin striped to...
  18. Arizona ($2600 shipped) King 2.5 Performance Series shocks (3-5" Height) with ADJUSTERS! NEW IN BOX.

    ttt Still have these. Will negotiate slightly on price. NEW IN BOX. Never used. No longer have the bump stops.
