  1. downsizing wheels

    I don't think I said anything about a "loaded" Maverick. If you look at my post that you quoted, you'll see that I said a "Maverick Hybrid" - which starts at $22,195. Yes, greedy Ford dealers have been marking them up, but you can find them for MSRP if you're willing to drive a ways - or even...
  2. downsizing wheels

    I just checked the configurator too - and your're right... it's currently an additional $4,650 to go to the auto diesel from the auto gasser ($4,150 for the diesel engine + $500 for the heavier-duty 8HP75 auto) - and $6,650 more to go from the manual gasser to the diesel ($4,150 for the diesel...
  3. downsizing wheels

    Forgot "Costs $10K more up front" and "Diesel fuel cost significantly more than regular unleaded gas", and "Diesels cost more to maintain and repair" (which you will be doing more often than with the Pentastar)". Diesels are great for towing/hauling if you need to do that a lot - or if you just...
  4. Power steering quit and then started working again a couple of miles later

    Cool... Thanks! I may give that a try and see if any air comes out. It certainly can't hurt.
  5. Power steering quit and then started working again a couple of miles later

    Cool... glad you saw this post! So... is it your theory that the pumps start failing intermittently because they are overheating due to air in the system? So... in order to get the air completely out, you have to jack up the front end and work the steering through 60-ish cycles lock-to-lock...
  6. Power steering quit and then started working again a couple of miles later

    Thanks for all of that and your previous reply. Very interesting… especially that it’s just gone away for the past 20k miles. Hopefully it stays away. You know… I’m trying to remember if I kicked mine to accelerate after exiting the off-ramp yesterday. It’s very possible…. and I wouldn’t have...
  7. Power steering quit and then started working again a couple of miles later

    So, the problem just… went away for you - even when doing the same procedure that triggered it before in the same weather conditions? …or did you do something to fix it?
  8. Power steering quit and then started working again a couple of miles later

    No, I'm at work now, so haven't had time to plug my scanner into it... but I'd think if a code for something that important had been thrown, I would have gotten a warning on the instrument panel. Maybe not? Also posted this in a FB group and a couple of people there have chimed in to say it's...
  9. Power steering quit and then started working again a couple of miles later

    '22 Sport S - Stock except for Rubicon wheels/tires... roughly 9k miles on it. Near the end of my commute to work this morning (sunny in the mid-30's)... which is about 45 minutes long... the last leg of which is about 8 miles of interstate... I took the off-ramp near my office and just after...
  10. Gladiator fuel overflowing.

    I bought my Gladiator a several months ago... already have over 7k miles on it - so lots of fill-ups already - and this just happened to me for the first time. I usually go to the same gas station and I always stop pumping when the pump shuts off automatically the first time. Maybe the...
  11. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Facebook Marketplace. I had been watching it daily - sometimes multiple times a day - for several weeks - searching a 100-mile radius (though it’ll still show you results farther away). I checked Craigslist a couple of times but never saw much of anything on there. I kept seeing the same sets...
  12. Nobody waves anymore.

    I am new to Jeeps (at age 58) and I wave at every Jeep I pass (Wranglers/Gladiators anyway). I get a wave back about 50-60% of the time... and that's in my Sport S with skinny stock street tires. I recently picked up a set of Rubicon take-off wheels/Tires (Wildpeak A/T's) and bolted those on -...
  13. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Finally found a good deal on some Rubicon take-off wheels/tires for my four-month-old '22 Sport S. Picked them up yesterday and bolted them on today. It looks SO much better now - and It'll be more capable off-road. I'm probably gonna do the 1.5" Teraflex spacer lift up front to level it next...
  14. What Did You Do FOR Your Gladiator Today?

    Picked up some (barely) used Rubicon wheels w/Wildpeak AT's for my 4-month-old Sport S. No more skinny street tires! Whoo Hoo! I'd love to do 35s/37s & re-gear at some point, but this will be a nice upgrade for now. Can't wait to bolt them on.
  15. First Time Topless this year.

    Yep! The pine pollen is already pretty awful here in SC. I kept my windows up and turned the A/C on and switched it to recirculate earlier today because I don't want my cabin air filter clogged with that junk. Only a few more weeks to go! <sigh>
  16. Is it me or is this guy full of it?

    He is a clueless idiot - and I mean that in the nicest way possible. ;-)
  17. Is it me or is this guy full of it?

    There are some good ones out there (SavageGeese being the absolute best IMHO), but this dork isn’t one of them.
  18. So long, farewell (traded in JT Overland)

    Sorry, man… didn’t mean to come across as a d!ck. Was just making that observation.
  19. So long, farewell (traded in JT Overland)

    Wasn’t directed at the OP in any way… he clearly stated his reasons for switching. I was just reacting to your statement that your “Ram is way more comfortable when towing” and how that is obvious.
  20. Is it me or is this guy full of it?

    That tells me all I need to know about him. Thanks for saving me the trouble of watching the video.
