Look at JL 4XE resale value. It’s horrible. A lot of dealerships won’t even take them in trade.

Isn’t a RHO about the same price as the 392 Wrangler now that they lowered the price about $15k?

Do you honestly think they’d make a SFA Dakota?

They aren’t the quietest A/T on the market, I noticed that they’re louder than my Jeep’s A/Ts (dueler a/t Revo 3) when they gave me Rubicon service loaners, but they are not obnoxious by any means. You can just hear them hum a little bit. Here’s what I would do, unless you just want a dead...

Yeah. The $8k off I got on my Jeep in 2/2020 would be roughly 30% off if I bought a 2023 for the same price. 2020 $55k msrp vs the same Jeep in 23 being $67k. Stellantis had no idea what they were doing with pricing for the first several years.

It dawned on me a few years ago that the kids I see today wearing Nirvana tee shirts is like me wearing Led Zeppelin shirts in the 90s. I still haven’t fully accepted that.

What brand is that?

I couldn’t even hear them with the windows down. I had them on a GMC, is why I mentioned windows down. I had a few other friends run them and they loved them too. They’re technically called an A/T, but look at the tread pattern. That’s no A/T. They were good in the snow and fine on dirt roads...

The cool thing is they have three Jeep dealerships. I bought from the one on Capital Blvd because I was working across the street at the time and they had exactly what I wanted at their Cary location so I got the same deal as if it was on their lot. We agreed on a deal. I gave them my info so...

This is the only pic I can find of the sidewalls continental tires that I was taking about. If you have any German performance cars, you’re probably aware of what great tires they are

Like others on here, I’ve never had good luck with their wet traction. They do last forever, butthey would look absolutely ridiculous on a rubicon. You need something with a more aggressive sidewall.

I’ll bring this back full circle. Caring this much about my lawn and drainage projects makes me feel old. 😂

Yeah, sorry for the hijack. 100% on me. Yeah I made everything flow downhill. The water table is very high and the house garage should have been elevated a few feet. There are a series of drywells, but rather than fight the overflow from large rainfall events, I made it so it would flow all the...

What tires do you have? Assuming you have a quality tire on there, pretty much all modern offroad tire until you get to aggressive M/Ts are pretty much silent till you don’t rotate them properly and/or don’t have proper alignment or balance and they cup. I can’t even hear my tires and I couldn’t...

In 2019, before there were any reasonably priced gladiator bed covers, some people were somehow using Colorado covers. I can’t see how a cap would work though with the Colorado bed being 2” longer. It’s a Tacoma bed also only 5’ even vs 5’2”?

I’m not disputing what you’re saying at all, but just wanted to comment one thing. The fact that they ever sold for $75-$77k is pretty wild to me. 22-24 model years were wildly overpriced. For comparison, I just went on Jeep’s website and build a 2026 and built a Mojave X, which comes very well...

Swales flow an incredible amount of water. That whole area gets limited sunlight. It’s a big problem because the only grass that will grow there is fescue and apparently that’s like goose crack. You can’t really see it, but there is a city park with a large pond behind there. Every spring when...

Funny to me that you think the sales person, that you use a derogatory term for and continually defame, is the dishonest person and the finance manager is the honorable one. You have that completely twisted. I’ve worked at a lot of dealerships. Started off in traditional sales and worked my way...

I did end up renting a tractor to dig one of the the 4x4x4’ dry wells, one run of one of the French drains, and regrading a swale to make it actually flow downhill. Our detached garage would get water inside under heavy rains and it started off by building a French drain around it, but it still...

Yeah. Trenching is no fun. I hand dug several French drains a few summer ago. Several hundred feet plus about 100’ of dry creek bed and a few dry wells. That made me feel very old. lol. My Jeep got a workout too. I forgot how many yards of gravel and river rock from the stone yard, but it was a...
