  1. Another Stop/Start system issue - and a total dealer meltdown

    ...or just push the Disable button on the dash when you start the engine...
  2. 2020 or 2021

    Does the SelecTrac transfer case have a Neutral position, so it can still be towed behind an RV?
  3. Overpriced aftermarket parts...

    We bought my wife's JKU about a year ago, from a dealer about an hour away from home. They talked us into buying a 5-year maintenance package, telling us that we would get free oil changes and tire rotations on a regular basis. Came time for an oil change so we went to our local dealer to ask...
  4. Motorcycle (not a dirt bike) in the bed.

    Sure wish our bike would fit in the bed...
  5. Jeep Customer Service

    thanks - I never thought about the stickers under the hood!
  6. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    Yesterday we drove from San Jose, Ca - where it was 82 degrees and smoky - to Salinas, Ca - where it was 61 degrees and windy - for a late lunch at our favorite restaurant: Black Bear Diner.
  7. Jeep Customer Service

    Where would the decals be located? I recall the white "Jeep" lettering attached to the embossed "Joop" on the body in front of the doors; I don't recall any decals on the dash or anywhere else on the vehicle - the keys had the AMC logo on them. But then, we sold it in 2000 so my memory might be...
  8. Jeep Customer Service

    I think we had one of the last ones built in the AMC Windsor plant - it was ALL AMC. I don't recall seeing anything with Mopar on it at all. About 2 months after we bought it the dealer changed their signage from AMC to Mopar... Yup - had a real nice top, actually. We really liked the side...
  9. Jeep Customer Service

    Our '88 YJ soft top didn't even HAVE locks on the doors - AMC figured it was a waste of money since the tops could be "bypassed" so easily...
  10. Towing and transfer cases

    The Book says tow 4-down or 4-up - no dollies allowed. My question is: with the transfer case in Neutral are the front and rear drive shafts still connected to each other, and disconnected from the transmission, or are they disconnected? Seems to me, based on the stated restriction, that the...
  11. Towing and transfer cases

    So, I know that the Jeep platform is probably the most popular choice for towing behind motorhomes, and I faithfully follow all the recommendations. But, the engineer in me needs to know what is going on in the transfer case while towing: when the transfer case is in Neutral what exactly is...
  12. Key Fob Follies

    I'm a retired engineer, and the biggest complaint I have about the fob is that every time I take it out of my pocket to unlock, or lock, the doors the buttons are always facing away from me...
  13. Wife hates gladiator

    I guess it's all in the perspective - I wouldn't call the Gladiator a "massively long truck", but then my last truck was an F450 crew cab with a 9 foot bed! Wheelbase of around 225", and unloaded weight was just under 9,000 lbs. We used it to haul a 38 foot fifth wheel around - now THAT was a...
  14. We need to talk about the “Jeep Wave”

    So, if I'm driving my motorhome, with the Jeep in tow, am I allowed to wave at other Jeeps? Maybe I should wave at other motorhomes towing Jeeps - there's a TON of those! Asking for a friend... :devil:
  15. Water fording depth - Update

    My son had that happen to his Challenger a few years ago in Norfolk, Va - DOT had closed most ofthe roads in his neighborhood, except for one intersection. He go to the middle of the intersection and no farther. His insurance totaled the car, rather than try to replace the drive drain, engine...
  16. Very basic radio question

    All my music files are mp3 files - so does that mean they can't be sorted? What do I have to do to get them into ID3 format? Also, is a playlist just a list of files, or is it a file containing the actual music files in the playlist? This is all so confusing!
  17. Very basic radio question

    So, I admit I'm an old phart - this is the first vehicle I've owned that has the provision to use a thumb drive to store music. My question is: can the music stored on the thumb drive be stored in a hierarchical fashion, like folders for various genres of music, then artists stored in those...
  18. How to spot a Mall Crawler

    I prefer whisky to whiskey... LOL!
  19. Can we Disable the auto stop start?

    I have conditioned myself to disable the start/stop every time I fire up the beast - it's really not that much of a hassle to punch one more button on the dash...
  20. Recommendations for front bumper under $600?

    Looking at their website the D-ring mounts are bolted through the bumper into the frame horn - the tow bar brackets likewise bolt through the bumper to the frame horn so I think I'll go ahead and get this bumper - the wife approves of the look so that's a major hurdle overcome!
