  1. Looking at Campers (6spd Sport Manual)

    Are you though? You have 35 years experience - then cite any of that experience that supports your actual claim - that insurance is denying coverage for slight overloading situations (or for that matter for slight speeding). Talking about insurance risk factors, risks of accidents, etc. is...
  2. Looking at Campers (6spd Sport Manual)

    Please cite a single documented instance of this happening with a fact pattern that wasn't bat-shit crazy. That said, I'm actually really happy that this is one of the saner, on balance, Gladiator tow threads I've seen recently. OP - when your lease is up you could consider a Rubicon/Mojave -...
  3. Tuscadero Jeep Wrangler announced

    This aged well...
  4. What do you lose if you don't get leather?

    Sorry, I’m sure nothing is wrong with the leather itself. Or, at least I have no negative experience. What I was trying to say was that as a Floridian who plans to have his top off a lot, I don’t want leather but, if it was available, I would like the fancier interior otherwise. Katzkins build...
  5. What do you lose if you don't get leather?

    Good post. Though as @quetscoatl adds you also get the rear-seat fold-down armrest. I wish there was an 'interior upgrade package' that kept the cloths seats but added the other stuff, I'd have paid maybe half the leather seat option price for such a package. To me, in Central Florida and next...
  6. Had a Jeep miracle today.

    Secret Gorilla Glass prototype for the win! ;)
  7. “We’ll have more 35” tire availability news later this year, so stay tuned.” = Xtreme Recon Gladiator?

    Be still my heart :) But not sure I’d forgo my manual on order if Xtreme Recon (ugh) was auto only…
  8. 2021 Ecodiesel Big Issues beaware

    My guess: dealer won’t buy it back because of the dealer lift + 37s. Buying it back on an invoice sale means they’re only out some small amount of profit, but those dealer lift packages mean their forgone profit would be way higher. Of course the sad flip side is you’d think the dealer would...
  9. Toolbox \ Toolkit that fits in rear underseat storage bin

    Thank you, super helpful!
  10. Toolbox \ Toolkit that fits in rear underseat storage bin

    Great thread. Dare I ask if anyone has a solution also compatible with the lockable underseat box? My current plan is "pack light and wrap in a towel" :(
  11. Newbie gal who wants to learn!! Help me choose my gladiator?

    A max tow is by no means required for light duty towing, BUT it's such an amazing value that if you don't want a manual or the absolute cheapest Gladiator possible (and if you want the cheapest Gladiator than you want a manual anyways) then I think it's almost a no brainer. So I concur with most...
  12. New orders - 3% under invoice with @dealersider

    I think this is an interesting discussion. I USUALLY see this in terms of people buying local at MSRP versus traveling which makes me chuckle because if their time is THAT valuable then why are they even bothering to shop around :) But you're right at a 2% spread makes things a lot tougher. If...
  13. Took delivery of the first Gecko Green Gladiator!…. Hot Wheels

    I was so excited to open the thread :) I do wish Jeep would get their 'Gecko' in order. I swear between this toy, the Facebook post this week, the Euro configurator color, the color from the 2021 fleet order guide, and the color of...actual JL Geckos arriving on the lot!...none of the colors...
  14. Automated car wash issue

    For God's sake man don't tow anything with your pickup truck! Haha jk, I'm just a little 'triggered' from an ongoing discussion in another thread ;)
  15. First Time Truck Buyer - Does this plan make sense? Mainly questions about payload/towing...

    Understood and appreciate the reply. I guess it depends on how often you need to fill the bag and how much you want to only carry the five-pound bag all of the other days. I'd love to hear from @Serik more about how often he plans to go camping, where he's planning to drive, and how much he's...
  16. Jeep acknowledges big demand for 392 Gladiator V8

    I agree. But as others have said if they want to act like the 6.4 is something special and rare they just need to offer the darn ubiquitous 5.7 :) I know fleet fuel economy is a concern but darn it they offer the regular hemi in almost every other product…
  17. Chip shortage is finally affecting Gladiator production

    Not a shot at Daniel who is a great guy, but the lesson of countless threads here is that dealers know FAR less than informed consumers online. FAR FAR less. Most staff at dealerships aren’t even car guys much less Jeep guys. Even if they’re not outright lying to make a sale or get a customer...
  18. First Time Truck Buyer - Does this plan make sense? Mainly questions about payload/towing...

    OP wants to tow 4,000lbs with a max tow. Do you feel like the Gladiator is that under-equipped that it can’t even tow half its rated spec?! Remember a Gladiator Max Tow’s rating isn’t very different from a THREE QUARTER TON truck’s rating from the early 2000s. OP - asking this question on...
  19. Chip shortage is finally affecting Gladiator production

    Question: these emails with delivery dates and/or delays, where are they coming from? I have a VON and VIN but have no idea how to get into ‘the system’ to get these sort of notification emails… :(
  20. Mojave Production 2022

    I'd offer 10:1 odds the Mojave will continue into MY22. The Gladiator is awesome and is selling pretty well, not sure why this forum sometimes has something akin to a guilty conscience and speculates that trims (or the whole dang truck!) will be discontinued. By the way, check out the age of...
