I'm currently driving a overland rental and it's already on its 2nd set of windshield and already been chipped!! side topic...I drove down to the bay today to attend a funeral and noticed a Tesla pulled over to the emergency lane and another huge construction truck in front. Then noticed the...

Interested in seeing some high milege diesel owners!!

Topic..interested in getting this but not sure if it's actually helpful or not. Plus its $300 so not exactly cheap for a "trial". I have a stock rubicon with factory 33s but I work from home so most of the drive (as of now) is around town/short commutes with a lot of traffic lights/stop signs...

Perfect for soccer moms and the mall crawling crowd.

I just bought a oil burner (all stock rubicon diesel) and right now, getting around 21mpg with city driving (I work from home). Got t-boned (separate thread here) last week and its at the collision center now for repair. I was given a overland gasser for the rental and it's averaging...

UPDATE: Dropped my truck to the collision center this morning. Was surprised Geico coordinated another Gladiator as replacement for the rental (It's a gasser overland trim) at no charge. And of course, the replacement came with the infamous Jeep chipped windshield free of charge ;). Rental...

I mean the whole world is moving to hybrids and then full EV and these will be the ONLY drive train available on residentual vehicles. Heck...Europe already has EV trucks for years. And EV means fully computer/chip intergration so almost everything will be a cookie cutter design of high tech...

I've owned my share of mid size trucks over the years...2nd gen Tacoma, 3rd gen gmc canyon full of tranny issues, Ford Ranger (rock solid with the 4 banger turbo) and now my oil burner. I do love my diesel Glady but the ride is kinda harsh but that's expected off a real 4x4 truck with a solid...

I've seen so many threads on Reddit as well saying jeeps are prone to rocks, etc due to the flat design and I'm crossing my fingers. I've already been t-boned in my brand new truck this week so don't need to deal with a chipped windshield later..lol. I've owned trucks for over 10 years and never...

Plug in hybrids will be hot next 5 years. A lot of people (inc me) are not fully sold on EV and I own one and I drive it a LOT simply cos of home charging (and discounted SMUD rates). A combo of gas/electric is far better instead ....plus if Russia does a EMP strike on US and takes out all power...

Thats for the tip mate. As someone who's never reallly been in this situation for over 20 years, how do I go after Geico for the dimisshed factor? They haven't really said anything on this other than assigning me a estimator. However, I did speak to the actual repair place and talked to the mgr...

Hey guys..appreicate the kind words. Good thing is other party was also with Geico (same as me) so they are handling it. Fault was determined to be other party....I feel sorry for the kid though..appears she just got her license 2 months ago and is a high-schooler. I was able to her Drivers ID...

My kid and I were returning home last night from a local park and got T-boned by a speeding 16 yr old (no drivers license on her either). I was driving but was able to control the impact as the glady swerved off the main street but the 33's went right over the curb and onto the footpath like a...

The safety features like blind side monitoring, rear/front collision alert SHOULD be standard on ALL trims. If a $20k Kia can have these features, I don't see why a $45k+ Jeep can't have it and it becomes a $1k add-on. And as with my other vehicles, the safety features can be disabled for those...

I've been using Tyger covers from Amazon for my last 3 trucks (gmc canyon, ford ranger and now my Glady). For $200, ya can't beat it...it's watertight, looks good, lasts forever and super light and can be removed in under 5 mins if ya need to haul larger stuff. I've hauled tons of camp gear for...

Still discovering my Rubby but found out mine (and 23 onwards) don't have the older Fox 2.0 shocks (red). Was this a cost cutting move by Jeep to move to a inhouse cheaper shocks? Not sure who makes these on mine. Though I do enjoy the street driving and have no complaints with whatever shocks...

Another main thing that swayed me towards my oil burner is in the mid size segment, the Glady has the MOST rear seat space (I test drove the new gen Tacoma and rear seats are still small and barely can fit 2 adults at the back). When I bought mine home and my teen kids went for a ride, the first...

Side topic..any reason why Jeep has NEVER made lockable hood lockers? It doesnt cost much if Amazon can be selling lockable lockers for under $100. But hey, they put lockable rear seat compartments if u wanna store stuff and have the roof off?? Trying to understand Jeep's logic here.

Well..if ya care for diesel, then there's only one answer ;). This is the way.

I'm happy with my diesel and hoping to run this to ground (as long as the emission hold up).
