  1. Spec Sheet posted on FCA media site - 6500lb towing capacity for EcoDiesel Gladiator

    Still looks to me in regards to towing the Rubicon is the best option for the diesel since the GCWR is higher than any of the others. Rubicon axles curiously have a higher GAWR than the gas versions which makes me wonder if the Rubicons not only got higher spring ratings but also got some of...

  4. 2021 Gladiator EcoDiesel Official EPA MPG and towing capacity

    So if it is consistent with my experience with my Grand Cherokee 30+mpg highway is more than achievable even before a GDE tune.

    Just like TFL another crap article with no factual basis in an official release. This one does not even make sense. In midgrade Overland and desert-ready Mojave trims, the EcoDiesel nets a 500-pound capacity increase to 6,500 pounds. In Gladiator guise, however, the diesel's mandatory 3.73...
  6. Progress of building and delivering the Eco-Diesel

    my guess with the info available is a JTR will come in at about 1050 based on comparisons with the JL differences between v6/diesel and applying that to the v6 vs diesel JTR.
  7. Gladiator Window Sticker and Build Sheet Order Tracking

    May have received incorrect information? Please elaborate. While I appreciate the email notification are you saying FCA botched the emails? So it is true that there is no way my order is going to be delivered to my dealer within the week even though Jeep chat rep told me this morning it had...
  8. Gladiator Window Sticker and Build Sheet Order Tracking

    Nothing, it was completely unsolicited and the odd thing is that per jeep chat mine is supposed to be delivered this week but still shows D1 per their system. They opened up a case to look into these emails.

    Just got an email too. If I get mine this week I will let you know

    Because although 2020 ordering has closed and 2021 ordering has started the marketing machine is still on 2020 until 2021s start showing up at dealers.
  11. How long it would take Diesel Engine MPG to pay for itself

    I towed a 6400lb travel trailer a couple weekends ago and was around 18mpg highway. I was somewhat impressed with how it pulled but I do not like the floaty feel of the rear air suspension with the higher tongue weights. Reminds me of my grandmothers caddy back in the day when they pulled an...
  12. First problem - Oil leak

    "Machining mark on lower corner" Sounds like a QC problem on the cover. Hopefully that does not become a widespread issue. Good to know about the injectors, might need to do a little preventative maintenance on delivery and apply some anti-seize on the threads.
  13. Progress of building and delivering the Eco-Diesel

    Yes and like I said I have done the math and 1400lbs is quite a bit more than I plan on loading in there. Your comment about steering does not come into play when a weight distributing hitch is properly set up. I am not trying to get into an argument here and like I said you are entitled to...

    By loaded you refer to full tanks? I have no intentions on boon docking or long term with this rig. We travel light. I also don't drive fast when towing which makes a huge difference with sway. I also don't tow anything larger than 3k without WDH and sway control. It should be around 6300...

    Kodiak Ultra Lite 283BHSL. 5603 dry so we will see what the actual numbers come in at. I don't have high regards for TFL and their statements so I have been keeping an eye on the FCA Gladiator press release feed. Right now pretty much all you can do is put a deposit in on a trailer that...

    Train to Jessup, MD rail yard then truck to the dealer.
  17. Progress of building and delivering the Eco-Diesel

    At least you didn't buy it in CA and have to pay a transporter to drag it over the line to Arizona or Nevada to avoid paying CA tax. Hopefully it does not take too much longer for you.
  18. Progress of building and delivering the Eco-Diesel

    Good for @Schreconjeep and I that we are closer to Toledo but just far enough away that they have to go by train (All CSX routes, yours have to switch over to BNSF or Union Pacific along the way). My last Jeep order took about 8 days to ship from Detroit (Jefferson North) but that one had to be...

    I have a travel trailer on order scheduled to come off the line in Indiana 8/23. Wish I could just pick up the Jeep in Toledo, drive the 2.5hrs to Indiana and skip the shipping/transport of both...
