You've not read some of the information via 'Jeep Informant' on the "complexities of heating & cooling lines along the underbelly (2.0) ? Then there were the Fires !? I just don't have confidence in the newness with it in the Italian 2.0 Turbo version, simple as that - not based on any...
OH ! I am more of a JL Visitor, where I actually have my moniker posted ! This Gladiator thing is a new possibility for me but honestly I'm leaning toward the more practical parts of the JLU (Rubi) for ME ! I do enjoy the camaraderie on both sites. Never say never . . . I could change...
Everybody seems to be "hoping," so let me get on the hope-train and hope that on Christmas morning I go out to my garage and see that Santa left one their . . . for me to see ! :clap:
Sheeeeeeeeeeee . . . be quiet ! Jeep and Ram already slept together and gave us the rebirth of a new "Gladiator," now what you want, them to shack up again and produce the genetically modified version too ? :brokenhearted: Out of wedlock relationships don't often work out for the best . ...
Can't resist . . . perhaps the best question so far ! Of Course I'm gonna get the BlueTooth Speaker . . . but, for my iPad !
Well, and maybe this will be the final ultimate incentive to go ahead and order one of these damn trucks too . . . :cwl: ! It would also be nice to multitask with it...
Thank you for the "like" Bestop.com, on my previous insight, but, don't let that "go to your head" !
Delayed reply part 2 -- After great thought processes, on my part :clap:, I have not 1, but 2 new (to me) suggestions for New Product (JL) ! Ready ? They will be useful in countless...
And why wouldn't it - from the b-pillar forward, the "body" is IDENTICAL to the JL ! Good to hear though, cause now either way I go - JL or JT - the Sunrider gonna work !
You make a Very Good Point, one which I neglected to think about (amateur!) - gearing and how it affects low end usable torque ! I believe my PUG/WK2 75th Laredo (2016) has the 3.21 for better gas milage ! I do tow a drift boat - trailer & boat totals are under 1000, so not really an issue...
I hear your point of view, if your into comparing with Competitors ! Not Me, I have never had interest in any other American Brands in my life (long time, ha). Practically born in a 2 door Plymouth (with "wings," remember those?) and all the Plymouths & Dodges that followed ! I did...
285/260 JLU & WK2 vs. RAM DT 305/269 -- is it a lot to ask of 20 hp to lug around an additional 400+ pounds, between the Rubicon JLU and the Rubicon Gladiator ? I think so, but the proof is in the testing by all the TFLTrucks out their in the months ahead. I'm not an engineer, nor did I...
Or, on the other hand, the Rubicon versions -- JLU and the JT are 400+ pounds apart; yet use the same hp/torque #'s ! You would think, being a Truck, Jeep would of programmed/adjusted the JT to the RAM specs to offset that additional 400+ pounds !
Maybe they will wake up by launch (or...
Deal Breaker ? Well, for a "penny-pincher" such as I, . . . the ever increasing costs, the new and unique ways FCA comes up with to "nickel & dime" its Faithful - it just amazes me ! NO, it ANGERS me is more the what it does to me every time I go to build & price a JLU or a RAM DT I just...
And . . . for retiree's like me, it will be the ONLY ride available . . . but the most fun will be taking it "to the dirt" ! The "dirt" for me means the Logging roads/forest service roads on BLM or State Parks or other Federal (Public) lands, where the View hasn't been "messed with" yet ...
I like the Drawer Thing, but don't count on any of the 3rd parties to come up with anything until 2020, unless, they've put in requests to FCA for the SPECS & they have a Chrystal ball telling them Jeeps gonna sell a Ton of these from day 1 - to make the financial start-ups cost effective ! OR...
Hi everyone ! Been on the "sister/brother" site for awhile now contemplating trading or selling my 2016 75th WK2 in of course Recon Green . So, it wouldn't be to much of a pain in the "arse" for Jeep to add a few drops of "dog-crap" brown to the Recon Green; give it a "new Name" and wallah...
