I have been lurking on this thread for the most part and my thoughts are sort of like this. A Jeep does drive different than a car for all the reasons already mentioned. Although it should drive safely and in a controlled manner though don’t expect BMW or Porsche steering precision, it ain’t...

For me it is the addendum annoyance and using a vamp tap on my otherwise perfect factory wiring harness. At least my dealership was up front that it was installed but the fact that they wanted to charge a 10X markup on a device I didn’t want in the first place is where I got a bit chapped. The...

It was a little comical the other day I was rolling with all 4 doors off just around town. I went to get an ice cream and there was a JKU there parked with only the front doors off. My son in law who is 20 was with me and he said cool Jeep what do you think of that one pointing at the JKU, my...

I would think that if the FCW kicks it still should return to normal operation maybe after a timer or some other event happens like cycling between brakes and throttle. Seems like a software bug to me but may just be a safety feature. I would suggest asking the dealer about it at least and let...

There are lots of things that can allow or exacerbate vibration in your steering. As stated loose components and or misaligned front end attribute to allowing the oscillation to occur. A stabilizer can’t cause it, loose components can’t cause it, and even misalignment can’t cause it. A bump...

Shadowspapa has a good woman. Mine is very much the same way though. If she wants something I encourage her to get it and she does the same. If we can’t afford it yet we will save for it.

Does the wife like going off road? If she says she doesn’t, take her ASAP and get her into it. Let her drive it off road. Once she gets the bug, it will be you telling her you can’t get the mods yet.

Just know you will not lose any functionality in your vehicle if you remove it.

No, Uconnect still works for the find my Jeep. The difference is that function has a lot more legally binding language that makes it yours and only you being entitled to use it for your purposes. This other thing is way more shady with no such agreements and I would say borderline illegal if...

I disconnected mine after the first night it came home. No GPS police yet because there is nothing in my finance agreement that states they are going to track my vehicle or did I agree to it. But many dealerships do install them for the tracking purposes previously mentioned.

Here is the one I removed from mine. It was not the OBD2 model it was hardwired into the hot lead but you can see it is the same thing.

That sir is an ELOS GPS tracking device installed by your dealer and probably listed in your addendum. It hooks inline with the obd2 port. Some dealerships install them for tracking their inventory and for recovery in some cases if they pander to high risk buyers. You can and should disconnect...

That is a cool backdrop for that top picture where is that?

Congrats on getting your Overland. Also, If there is anything else you want to know Tina just ask.

A better way of putting it would be more like the handling of an older car pre-80’s but also one in good repair mind you, but that would limit the experience to a much more narrow crowd that has experience with the way cars drove in the 70’s to early 80’s. I friggin love my Gladiator and have no...

No, I was not talking about the dangerous changes lanes when you look down to change the radio station. My Jeep does not exhibit that excessive wander trait that some have had issues with. I am talking about how it compares to my previous trucks that were much tighter in the handling department...

See! Just like a beer swilling cow girl. :LOL:

Oh now that is easy. Just wait until this Covid-19 stuff dies down and head on down to a country bar. Just need to know how to two step, cotton eye joe and a couple other line dances, where a Stetson and boots , talk with a twang ahhh hell just go buy a Jeep probably cheaper and definitely just...

There are a bunch of different mirrors you can get that connect to the hinge. That is what I use, got them off of eBay for $25-30.

Local Jeep dealer sprayed Bullet liner in mine. Cost was great, designed by the same guy that created line-x and there is only one option/cost mine was $375 and has lifetime warranty so if it fades they will re-spray free. Not sure what your paying to have yours done or if you have bullet liner...
