Ordered my SG Sport S Max Tow, both safety packages, and aux switch group on 12/23....but as far as I know mine is still just "in scheduling" trying no tto nag my dealer too much but plan to ask for an update in a few days ...but I am hoping to have a build and ship date by now.

Just my personal opinion.......To me, that is not even worth the time to make a phone call or to send an email. At most I'd hit it with a squirt of spray paint or Amsoil Metal protector HD (rust preventative spray) and call it a day. Heck, you could easily scrape them up that bad or even worse...

My major reasons: 1. Cost 2. Space - We are a family of four (2 adults, 2 kids) and even the larget RTT would be cramped and usable only for sleeping. Our 10x10 ground tent is a palace. In the event of rain or other weather we can very comfortably spend hours inside of the tent with plenty of...

Maybe they were scouting it (seeing if you had wheel locks, etc) out for a future hit. Or maybe it was just totally coincidental they were in a jeep and they were just looking for open/unlocked cars to just look for loose items inside. We havea rash of this in my area now....sort of "soft...

Basically it just means it has been officially acknowledged/logged by FCA. It may not actually start getting built for several weeks...or maybe it will get built tomorrow. This thread is helpful to understand at least some of the "black box" that occurs during the process...

That does look very good!! Is the price even less if you go with plain black and skip the pet screens?

That is exactly my plan!!

I need security for the few times a year I will use a topper. I need to be able to keep things out of sight and locked/secured to a point that it would require quite an effort/disturbance to get to them. Whether I am transporting tools on a multi day trip or maybe keeping expensive gear out of...

I have not really begunb research yet (my gladiator is still on order....so I can't even take measurements yet lol) but I too am looking for a workable solution for maybe 4x per year. That RSI cap and others look great....but yeah $3K+ is not in my budget for that amount of limited use. I am...

I have seen e few threads here and elsewhere about this...have not seen a definitive cause or fix yet. Here is one thread: https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/filling-up-with-fuel.35723/ Seems like it is related to the evap/venting bits and pieces if I had to guess.

BINGO - rumor has it my brother in law spent years living in Shanghai to be the QC rep/troubleshooting engineer for his very recognizable big name US comapny. Can't elaborate more but he even described in great detail why he would have preferred the units coming from the chinese factory.

I think it really depends on how much the "brand" chose to pay the chinese factory. There is absolutely good and even great stuff coming out of plants in China.....but it depends on what price point that the buyer (the brand like Warn or whoever else) told the factory to meet. If they factory...

Yep that is quite a difference. I don't know much about modern paint colors/additives and how it all "works" but I see this same dramatic color shift on both of the blue cars we currently have as well. Depending on the level of clouds, angle of the sun, amount of sun, etc it is crazy how much...

Sarge definitely available for special order...I placed my order for one on 12/23. It is just not showing at all on the jeep.com website. My sales guy wa swatching for it to be available in the order system since Spetember or so and emailed me when it suddenly appeared in their order system...

Right, and from what I have read many times the "factory" bedliner just uses chemical adhsion promoters to speed things up versus the scuff sanding that LineX performs. So with the LineX you get a thicker product that is also bonded much stronger.

just curious is that an ARE for a gladiator? or something from another truck that happens to fit? I would love to find a deal on a used topper as a new one just won't be in the budget for a bit.

I always go through the entire owners manual and other manuals when I get a new car. Can't say I read every single page, but certainly I read all of the details about the controls and maintenance schedules/fluid types/capacities, etc. It's also good to get a feel up front how the manual is...

Right! It does seem to change quite a bit in different settings similar to how the gator did. I think seeing it in person is likely the only sure bet. Depending on cameras and lighting colors can also look very different in pictures. Fortunately, I got to drive by a sarge wrangler on display...

I was wondering the same....but thinking of flowable silicone.

Very true....it is always hard to tell with these things, as peopel due tend to complain/comment more about issues on forums. So, ther every well could be 50 or 100 people with no leaks for every 1 person that has a leak. This one seems slightly sneaky though, as I have read here and elsewhere...
