It makes sense that Canada should be higher in per capital consumption simply by virtue of climate - heating cost for colder weather and a longer winter, electrical costs for lighting (due to winter darkness), very large surface land to travel for business, freight, etc.
But total emissions is...
My Overland is in the dealer’s for a similar noise. First they thought is was a wheel bearing and changed the LF bearing.
Then the noise persisted so they involved JeeP engineering and now 1 of the front axles is being replaced. At the same time I have a leaking RR axle seal which means another...

The USGA estimates the US at about 18%. Right up there with Canada’s 1.5%
I respect everyone’s POV with regard to the environment, however I live in a country responsible for 1.5% of the earths carbon escape in the environment. I see no need to pay carbon taxes here and pay for vehicle controls that have no effect on the air I breathe. Other countries like the US and...
I will add that I am not a fan of this system with the diesel in particular, due to the turbo and the time needed to let this wind down from high revs- 20-30 thousand rpm if the vehicle is at speed before a stop. Also agree with the “unnecessary” comment.
Further to that, the manufacturer claim...
It is possible the plastic cap is a temporary for the engine oil fill when FCA receives them.
Then, the oil is filled and checked and the real oil cap goes on and this is confirmation at the factory the task is complete.
It would make sense that the factory installs the permanent cap based on...
40 gal aux is huge imo; I would be very happy with another 18 gal fit into the spare tire space, even 15 gal if that was all that would fit without exhaust mods.
My dealer went to the staging area 120 km away to pick up my vehicle because they have had a high rate of damaged vehicles from the trucking carrier. They phoned me ahead of this to ask if I would authorize the trip. Came in pristine.
I’m not understanding.
There is a digital speedo option in the drivers center screen by scrolling through the parameters through the steering wheel controls.
The gorilla glass is listed in Mopar parts.
The only Gladiators they fit are without the enhanced safety package - with the radar on the rear view mirror.
Hell, you could haul across the provincial border from the lot and it will still need the inspection done right even though it is right from the factory.
Another expense that hits us in Canada is provincial safety inspections.
I can buy a vehicle in one province, drive it 50 km to my province for registration and it must have an authorized garage do a safety inspection for up to $300.00. Is this in some or all states as well?
