I've heard a salesman say before "sell what's on the lot" so if someone goes in looking for a Max Tow equipped JT, some eager young idiot of a salesman will say , "yeah, we can do that".
The way salesman have to run everything by the sales manager, someone somewhere in management knew this was...
The wonders of modern technology!
All this is supposed to keep people from hurting themselves and it just makes things aggravating for most of us.
I posted up about the stuck in park with the door open aggravation and was told that two shifts from park to drive would override the stuck in...
I will probably end up with a Diamondback on my truck eventually, I've been trying to decide between the SE and HD.
I wasn't aware they made a headache rack.
A hose clamp placed around the tailgate hinge will accomplish the same thing, if anyone wants to secure the tailgate without buying that part.
Since the tailgate handle locks I'm not too worried about the tailgate being stolen.
I'm happy with the halogens, I don't need a light that will get covered in snow or ice.
A heating element is one more thing to fail but if vehicles come standard with LEDS, heated should come standard, without having to buy a winter package, I don't want heated seats or steering wheel either.
The Max Tow package is the only way I could convince myself that I can get by with the 5' box on the JT. I don't always need the cargo capacity but when I do I can grab the cargo trailer and know the truck will handle it.
Anything that takes away from the towing capacity reduces the usefulness...
I believe it was you that posted up a 2 mpg loss with a slightly wider AT tire.
That helped me determine to keep the stock size and tread on my truck.
MPG's equate to heat and tow capacity.
Who or what is TFL? Can you post a link?
I bought my JT for truck duties, I had intended to install a mild lift and bigger tires.
When I began to read about the towing test to get the rating (even though I have no intent of towing at that weight, in that heat) I decided to leave it stock.
I...
That's an interesting question, though if you go back there's no guarantee that they will give you suitable tires.
They may give you two year old street tires that are too small, and you'll still be out of pocket to replace them.
When I first heard of the X model I thought it would be a base Rubicon or Mojave, a model with all the good drivetrain/suspension hard parts but none of the interior fluff.
If you buy the concentrate you'll need to mix it 50/50 with demineralized water.
Depending on how much you need it may save money to buy the concentrate, you'll get two gallons out of it.
My wife's Highlander has ESS yet I never trigger it.
I suspect the brakes are less sensitive, I do get the message to step harder on the brake pedal if I want to engage ESS.
Maybe Jeep could make the brake engagement less sensitive, it would satisfy many, and those that want to use it just step...
You got a screaming deal on your JTR, I'm envious.
I picked my Sport up in early Dec., it was advertised at 35.8K, it sounded too good to be true.
I was thinking it was going to be a bait and switch and was ready to walk if I smelled anything funny.
With so many '23's still unsold, and the...
My base Sport has the buttons to control the HVAC but it needs the screen to display HVAC mode, temp and fan setting.
Thanks, I didn't realize the three knobs were available.
I'll have to look into converting if my system begins to have issues.
