  1. Why do aftermarket wheels have to look so... aftermarket?

    My biggest problem with most after market wheels is that they are predominately black - flat, polished, machined. Not a fan of black wheels, but to each their own. That's what makes this community and the Jeeps on display so cool.
  2. Spray in or Bedrug?

    I have never heard that a spray in liner hurt value either. You are doing the liner to protect your investment. Now if you did it in a funky color, people may not like the choice. I had mine rhino lined and it is awesome. Just hauled a bunch of landscaping stones and after cleaning looks brand...
  3. Bikini top recommendation

    Went with Shade Idea - here's the link. Overall pretty pleased with the product. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08DKM5KXZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  4. Willys undergeared??

    Getting 18-19mpg combination of city/hwy. Best on Highway was 21.
  5. Willys undergeared??

    I've had no issues getting up to or maintaining speed here in Houston. When we have taken it on trips, it's cruised all day without issues as well. In fact it feels a lot livelier than my 2014 JKU.
  6. Car washing the Gladiator and transfer case

    Is that an AMX that you are restoring? If so what year?
  7. Silver or Satin Black Saltas?

    I like the silver, seems almost everyone wants black wheels. You did a great job painting them, they look good. Enjoy your Jeep
  8. Factory side steps or aftermarket ?

    Went aftermarket with a set of NFAB - Predator Pro Nerf steps. Easy to install and they look great.
  9. How do you plan to drive your Gladiator?

    Mine is a DD and we like to take the top off and let the grandkids enjoy riding in the open Jeep just like the JK. Like the OP, just want to do some light trails etc. so we can have some fund with the grandkids as well.
  10. Cleaning/Polishing

    I like the Chemical Guys VRP protectant for the plastic trim and bumpers. I also do the Griots 3in1 Ceramic wax after a clay bar once a year. I keep it up with Griots ceramic speed shine though out the year. For the tires I use Chemical Guys tire kicker extra gloss (the best I've found). Buy...
  11. Replacement for written off Gladiator

    Looks like a nice set-up, if they're willing to work with you, I would go for it myself. Good luck.
  12. Leaking axle seal?

    During my routing maintenance my dealer noticed my right real seal beginning to leak. They ordered the part, it came in a week later and put on yesterday. Happy they caught it early. Hardest part of the process was one of the service people telling me they had never heard of this issue. I...
  13. Bed Cover Preference: Roll Up or Flip Up, and Why?

    I've had the BAK 4Xs roll-up for almost a year and it's been a great addition to the Gladiator. Didn't want one that flips because I didn't want the rear window to be blocked.
  14. How accurate is the Fuel Mileage shown on our Trip Computer?

    it's not very consistent. There are times it's as much as a mile or two to high and other times as much as a mile to low. Very confounding.
  15. Anyone wish they had THIS gladiator

    No - I've had an extended cab Chevy S10 and the jump seats were useless. I like having the extra room a four door provides. Nice looking concept, but happy with the end product I purchased.
  16. Mods no effect on 6 speed

    That's why I said the 5lbs per corner just doesn't add up. That big of a tire change should have resulted in more weight. Out of curiosity what did you think of those Falken Wildpeaks?
  17. Mods no effect on 6 speed

    Not to beat a dead horse - but how is it only a 5lb per corner increase? Going from 33's to 37's when I look at tires is quite a bit more than just 5lbs let alone the change in factory wheels. I'm looking at going from my stock wheels and Firestone MT's (255/75r17) to Lt285/75/17 with Warn...
  18. Color?

    We all have different colors we like and dislike. By asking that question, it's like starting an argument at a family gathering, then sitting back to enjoy the show. If you like white, get a white one! I went on to the lot looking for one color and found that I preferred something different...
  19. Sad start to a new gladiator

    Glad you're ok, if they decide to fix it, make sure you fight for the decreased value because of the accident.
  20. Cloth Seats vs. Leather Seats Package

    Depends on where you live. I put Katzkin leather seats in my 2014 JKU and it was the worst mod I've ever done. The heat and humidity in Houston made the seats extremely uncomfortable with the freedom panels off. I could have put that money to better use. As Rraya10 said your location will be...
