You must be new here lmao. @ShadowsPapa has been turning wrenches for many a years and from what I can tell doing “tech” work just as long. Or did I take that out of context?? Some things get lost in text lol
Gags like the last jeep I’ll ever own ?? ? cuz I did just trade my jt but it’s not the last one I’ll own I’m sure. And I still have the 4xe if that stays in good health I could think of a 4xe glad some day ??
If it’s not 20 degrees outside I can average 35 to 40 mpg combined on our 4xe without issue. Wife drives about 60 miles for her daily commute, charge it over night and she drives mostly on electric to work and mostly on gas the way home “ due to no charger at work” if she could charge at work we...
They had a 2.7 there as well. Didn’t even look at it lol. I don’t feel there is enough displacement even with a turbo in that configuration. I’m sure it drives fine and tows ok but I was not interested.
Funny, I looked at the taco along side the gladiator. Couldn’t justify paying taco price for a truck unchanged since I was in high school lol. A midsize truck with full size fuel consumption and midsize power and capacity.
Also so far the 150 is nice. Like I could drive it to fl and back to ny...
Idk what your local dealers are doing but ours are pretty good idk if it’s because we are in a rather rural area and there are lots of farmers turned mechanics around here or what but they seem to be mostly capable. With the jeep I only one shop do Questionable work and that was more of a...
Seriously though lol. I thinks it’s one- the Karen’s of the world making complaints or two the administration of the forum randomly flexing on the members to try and keep us in check.
As a previous gladiator owner And still a jeep owner I still will hang here. Never said I was leaving. Won’t be joining the f150 forum either as it’s not really a truck I plan on modding. But thanks for asking.
If you wish to blow me kisses on my way by feel free and don’t be offended if I...
Venting is not the solution as the op states. You need to cool the oil and or coolant. Or those testing meth injection might find keeping egts low could very well be the solution.
I’d be happy at 65 but from the posts here the eco diesel derates on that same run empty… which leads to my efforts and the efforts of others to solve the oil temp issues. I never derated myself though, however I live in a cooler climate and no big time mountains
The towing will be nicer with the 1/2 ton by far. But it’s the other comforts that make the deal as a daily driver. My jt is by far the least roomy and or comfortable rig I’ve owned, and yes I knew that going in. I won’t by any means say this is the last jeep I’ll ever own lol. It is the last...
I don’t get it either bud… wish they were all as reliable as yours and most of them are I’m sure. But mine not so much lol I really like the gladiator seriously I do!! But between the issues I’ve had and the possibility of a cp4 failure I can’t justify hooking it to my nobo and hitting the open...
