  1. "I", am an ANALOG man, trapped in a DIGITAL age.............Uconnect and navigation?

    Howdy Lucas, Thanks so much for putting your information in language a troglodyte/Luddite, like me can understand. I think with the help of the folks on this list I have a pretty good handle on what this Uconnect stuff is, what it does and what I need. Can't even imagine trying to figure all...
  2. "I", am an ANALOG man, trapped in a DIGITAL age.............Uconnect and navigation?

    Howdy Mr._Bill, I have had after market brake controllers before, I just thought it would be nice to have the factory one and eliminate ANY possible problems with warranty. If Jeep sells it and installs it and it screws up that's on them not me. I learned many decades ago it's way cheaper for...
  3. "I", am an ANALOG man, trapped in a DIGITAL age.............Uconnect and navigation?

    Howdy PlayfulBird, Again if "I" understand what your saying and what the video is saying even with out Uconnect I should still be able to use the hands free phone, map apps that are in my phone, music apps that are in my phone and voice command or push buttons on the steering wheel to control...
  4. "I", am an ANALOG man, trapped in a DIGITAL age.............Uconnect and navigation?

    Howdy j.o,y.ride, If "I" understand you correctly, even after the Uconnect trail expires, google maps will still show up on my 7 inch screen SO LONG AS, I have my iPhone plugged into a usb port. If that is true then I don't have a problem, still need to figure out how to power the Garmin...

  6. Good stuff or snake oil............

    Howdy All, Well I just brought the new Gladiator, home. My friend did the ceramic thing and in the sunshine it sure looks pretty, of course nowhere to take photos in the sun so took them when I got close to home where it's darn near always gloomy. Still even under the cloudy skies it shines...
  7. Just got home with my new Gladiator, Rubicon, Snazzyberry

    Howdy All, For the last month I have been burning up the internet, watching youtube videos to the point of driving my wife nuts just got home after doing the deal on my new Rubi. I had a friend do the ceramic coating on all the painted surfaces, of course the sun isn't shining today here in...
  8. Mud Flaps

    Howdy All, I have the Rock Blocks on my SxS, they work well and will FLEX when you hit stuff and go over things, on the SxS they look OK but from the photos you folks have posted I really don't like how they look on the Gladiator, just my personal opinion. I am leaning towards the Weather...
  9. Good stuff or snake oil............

    Howdy Patrick, I live a few miles north of Granite Falls, at the west base of the Cascade Mountain range, right at the mouth of the Robe Valley. Back before they locked all the logging roads this was a dirt bike, 4x4 heaven, you could ride-drive for days or until you ran out of fuel, now there...
  10. Good stuff or snake oil............

    Howdy Chad, "I" am probably one of the most skeptical, cynical, people you would ever meet.

    Howdy John, Barring unforeseen circumstances, I should be getting the Jeep this coming midweek, the guy I am working with said he could get it done in a couple of days, if I do it I'll be sure to post up my opinion and some photos. If the darn sun ever shines up here again you might even be...

    Howdy John, The fellow I have been texting referred to me by a long time friend who is a detail freak uses a product called, Onyx Ceramic Coating, how many coats I don't know, I can only "assume" they will know what they are doing and do use as much as is needed, well if I decide to get this...

  18. Introduction and towing question.

    Howdy Patrick, Thanks for your reply. I really appreciate posts like yours, well thought out and meaningful. I do NOT plan to do anything harder then a gravel road with the Gladiator, don't need an off roader that is what the SxS is for, don't plan to add big tires, don't need them for my...
