  1. Gladiators in STL?

    I’m just north of you in Columbia.
  2. What changes would you like to see on the next gladiator?

    A properly geared manual transmission with the offering of 35” tires and 4.56 gears.
  3. Turns out Jeeps are not Toyotas

    There are different levels of marketing. Those that attract you to a product, and those that make you aware of a service once a consumer has brought a product. Of course, there are a lot more areas of marketing. JeepCares is definitely marketing, done with intention.
  4. Turns out Jeeps are not Toyotas

    A marketing ploy to give the illusion of assistance.
  5. Turns out Jeeps are not Toyotas

    Don’t rely on JeepCares to do anything. They are a marketing ploy at best.
  6. Dealers drive new vehicle from different state to your dealership?

    Honestly, of all manufactures, Jeep has the most tolerable break in measures. Really, the worst thing that could happen is a driver gets on the highway and sets cruise control. I bet that is what they do.
  7. Dealer oil overfill

    No, not that I am aware of.
  8. Dealer oil overfill

    Overfilled JLs were such a big deal years ago when I bought my new JLR. To think that this is still happening is absolutely insane. On something as easy as an oil change, it shows the ineptness of Jeep’s dealership network.
  9. STOLEN from my driveway this morning! New Jeeps are crazy easy to steal apparently...

    Probably because your vehicle was stripped down to nothing within hours of it being stolen.
  10. 8 Speed Automatic Regrets?

    I tried that with my JLR. Kept the revs high but the oem tune is bad as well with the manual. I thought it was only my Jeep, but I drove a few JLRs and they all had hesitations or slight bucking when remaining in gear at a “higher” rpm. It’s all emissions related crap, both mechanical and...
  11. 8 Speed Automatic Regrets?

    Most of the cars I have owned have been manuals, including my 2018 JLR I owned several years ago. I would loved to have my JT as a manual, but the gearing in the manual is horrible. In this case, I’d rather drive an auto, which I do with my 21 Mojave.
  12. Oil catch can - feedback?

    Being port injection, coating of the valves is not a thing, but I do worry about fuel dilution and it’s impact on octane rating.
  13. Oil catch can - feedback?

    I’ve used a JLT before as well with good results. High quality and easy to empty.
  14. Anyone take advantage of the wild resale values?

    Nope, not at all. My secretary traded in her beat up 2015 equinox with 80k miles and got $12k for it. This should be a 6k dollar car.
  15. Anyone take advantage of the wild resale values?

    Decided to keep my Mojave and got rid of my 2021 Subaru STI. I was given 10k more for my STI than I paid for it a year ago. Crazy market.
  16. Gladiator Quality Control Issues

    Quality has never been Jeep’s strong suit. I’ve have owned six wranglers and now my gladiator. All of them had quality and/or mechanical issues over the short period of time that I owned them. You would figure over the years that Jeep would improve their product. Nope. They increased their price...
  17. 6 MT and cruise control

    Tell that to the mt-82 Mustang guys. That’s not a good manual transmission.
  18. 6 MT and cruise control

    That’s why I am shocked Jeep put cc on a manual wrangler/gladiator. The motor constantly bogs down on the highway.
  19. Jeep Door Storage

    I use $2.00 pool noodles. Cheap and works great.
  20. Your thoughts on the 6 speed manual in the Gladiator?

    I’ve owned nothing but manual wranglers (six of them) leading up to my Mojave with a n automatic. I owned a 2018 six speed manual JLR and only had it for six months. I was so disappointed with the gearing, it just ruined the experience. If you are patient and have a good amount of tolerance, go...
