Maybe its just a local thing or the demographic, but I have seen 5 of us parked at my gym.
I dont live in a very busy/well developed area either.
I don't know any of the others, nor have I talked with them.
I have been meaning to get a photo of the parking lot.
When we are all there, I would...
My first longish tow. Not a lot of weight (1600 lbs) but was a little surprised at the MPG hit.
Averaged 16 mpgs towing up & back from the mountains.
Used to get 19 towing behind my Grand Caravan.
The Gladiator did seem to tow it easier than the Caravan, the 8 speed vs 6 speed trany is likely...
You know that it is an option on the Sport S and every trim above in 2021.
I think only 2020's didnt have it and you cant get it in the base Sport or Willys Sport.

Sorry, I did miss where he said it failed again. :mad:
It does show though that the white plate is a flawed part and likely part of the issues.
@JeepCares This really should be a factory covered repair and not blamed on the user.
I still suspect these are getting buggered on the assembly line.
White plate in the wrong location/out of its groove w/pins exposed.
In the correct position (covering the pins) and in the correct groove on the housing.
Good post on the Wrangler side about the white plate getting out of its groove (likely happens at the factory) and how to fix it...
I get the point........ appearance when not loaded.
What I dont get is how "lifting" the truck 1 1/2" in the front and 3/4" in the back (more if using Rubicon take offs) is considered not "lifted"
I miss having a sidecar rig.
Maybe again some day when I can free up some garage space.
We had his and hers.
Definitely more street biased than a Ural though.
Might want to try dropping the pressure down to around 20 psi or less and then back up.
I had a sensor on my JL act like it was dead and that got it reading again.
There is an array of things that will or wont work depending on what pins are bent.
There are also warnings that can pop up too related to auto park and Stop/start.
If you never had issues, I dont think you know what works or what doesn't.
I have a JL that has had no issues.
It really doesn't matter what I do, it just works.
I don't have to be patent or take any special care in connecting it.
In fact, up to the issues with my JT I never even knew this was...
