One sting-grey at Auburn Jeep, front of lot.

I honestly do not know when I will be able to finally get my JT. I have a number of financial commitments to meet before I get to that point, and I am determined to save up and buy it outright(no loan!). There is a good chance I won't be able to get it this model year, but i am watching and...

I'm guessing Sausalito.

Went by Burlingame Jeep, not a single JT in the lot.

Hello, for those of you who have gone to see what is available on the dealer's lots, what have you seen included with each trim? As most of us know, dealers usually pick what they suspect will be the most "popular" options and omit the rest on most examples they order from the factory. I think...

I had briefly thought of the idea of "what if it was offered in yellow", first time in my lifetime that a new jeep was produced that could be accurately labled as a Tonka Truck! I heard that they did it as an official limited-production run for the CJs, as shown bellow:

Do you think just using the rubicon's stock lockers would be sufficient for this kind of application, given the size of the vehicle?

Just because the basic shape is from 2005 doens't mean they haven't continued to refine the internals. Just as an example, the 2019 model looks noticeably different inside compared to my 2006.

Why is it that the Nissan Frontier is never looked at with these kind of comparisons? Before the arrival of the JT, their biggest rival was(and might still be), as a fellow japanese manufacturer, the Toyota Tacoma. So it would fit right in with this comparison. It would be interesting to see a...

@ACAD_Cowboy If I went with lockers more heavy duty than what comes on the stock rubicon, it might be the cable type, I'm just not sure how necessary it would be if I'm pushing a plow through wet and heavy sierra snow.

I have been between here and florida, the only noteworthy state I remember seeing with higher speedlimits for trailers was in texas.

A question regarding one of the reasons for canceling the order; why are we rating how well the truck tows at 70+ when nearly all states restricted trailer-pulling vehicles to no more than 65(55 is very common)? I imagine it would be more capable at the slower speeds that are required by law in...

I don't get it either. Granted I'm used to it sense mom's had a prius for quite some time (the auto start/stop is normal with that one), but it does make sense as a fuel saving measure. Furthermore, any enhancements to our fuel economy means we can be out on the trail longer because the rate of...

I believe that is what the dual-top package is.

Using the system I know from my frontier, I'm curious just how extensive the new system is, or will be, for how versatile the rails will be. The picture bellow covers a number of things I'm unsure of when it comes to Jeep's version of the system: 1. Is it just the side rails, and the rail...

Does that mean you can get the factory paint of a different color on respray?

I just looked at the video that @ACAD_Cowboy posted again, and I think the only reason I would have to go with a locker that's more heavy duty than the electronic type is if I were to make the truck capable of accepting a snowplow and get some extra paid work done with it that way in the winter.

From what I know, both the stock lockers on the rubicon and the nismo are electronic. I'm not sure I was even aware of there being air powered ones. Also, as mentioned in the opening post, I'm looking for what is most cost effective without sacrificing the performance minimum I'm aiming for. And...

@eternus You miss-understand. I'm not seeking out the lockers because the rubicon has them, I'm seeking out the rubicon because it has the lockers for a better cost than getting a sport and adding them aftermarket. I am currently the owner of a Nissan Frontier Nismo, it has a locker in the rear...

The thing is though, the Gladiator pretty much is a Wrangler in every way except the model name, especially if you consider the whole Scrambler evolution concept, so it feels like this should be an exception to that idea.
