10,500, 7 months old. I think this JTRD is going to be a looong term vehicle for me so getting the tune now to minimize the soot buildup and get a little better fuel mileage to me is a no brainer. I don't see any other vehicle anytime soon meeting my unique overland/off-road needs out West. Also...
Hmm since mud terrain tires have much larger gaps between lugs to not "lift" pebbles/rocks off the ground, wonder if that would help with the self-impact rock throwing/issue. I may lean towards M/T vs A/T tires next swap.
Ya I just know going in that any true off-road vehicle is going to get scratched to hell and back. I just let it happen lol. One reason the Cybertruck interested me... paintless stainless-steel would be amazing in that regard. But then again it's a "full size" pickup type vehicle that wouldn't...
Interesting. Ya I just got back from Colorado, was on a gravel road by myself and got a chip in my windshield when there was no other vehicles around. Was trying to grasp the physics of a pebble bouncing around the wheel well and what kinda crazy angles involved to get a pebble up and over the...
Thanks for the post. I have quite a bit of off-road experience, but not in the JTRD. Ya I watched a video.. looks like Jaws 1 high-centers a lot of vehicles. I do have full skids and rock rails.
Looks like I may wait till summer as I'd like to go all the way to the top. :rock:
Ya I'm surprised at how many people rely on website configurators for information. Those things are built by web development teams with the information they had that time and aren't often updated.
I would never have bought a gladiator if it didn't have the diesel. One bright spot is if it is indeed discontinued now or soon; our resale value should stay strong.
Did you ever let the truck run out of fuel or not prime fuel system after fuel filter change? Just curious if any air ever got to the pump that you know of.
I just did a 3,200 mile road trip to Colorado and back to Alabama and thought for sure my GG was going to bite the dust. But it actually held up. Colorado is very harsh on windshields. But when this GG finally fails, I'm going Hyperformance windshield. But so far after 6 months and 8K miles...
Ya I'm not sure if I just need to install a resister on the airbag connector to cure the airbag light or if I need ALL of the under-seat connections connected to cure it.
I've removed the passenger seat developing my overlanding rig and now I have an airbag light on the dash. I don't care about the light itself too much, just curious if all the remaining airbags would work in an accident? I couldn't imagine the system not detecting one airbag would shut down the...
Holy crap my JTRD was build on May 20th 2022. Pretty close. So looks like I should have this "durability improvement". I've also used EDT since driving it off the lot.
Can you explain what a properly primed system is after replacing the fuel filter or draining water?
