  1. Jeep, where's the Gladiator love?

    Understood. But for me, that would be fine. If I was anticipating regularly carrying 4 large-ish* people AND a trailer, I'd be looking at a full size pickup, not a mid size. *The 4 people I am likely to be carrying are not going to come anywhere near to an 800# weight limit. And even that...
  2. Who hasn't removed their door bolts yet, and why?

    Nah. I think I'll stay, and continue to judge off-road worthiness and utility on something a lot more important than just "removable doors", thanks.
  3. Who hasn't removed their door bolts yet, and why?

    Really? FANTASTIC! Quick, point me toward the one that has solid axles, factory lockers rear and front, and can fit 35" tires without any mods. I'll wait... Sheesh... People who think the main reason to buy a Wrangler/JT is "removable doors"... :CWL:
  4. Jeep, where's the Gladiator love?

    Good questions. However, a lot of people (such as myself) buy a pickup for the utility of the bed. I'll never get close to maxing out payload or trailering capacity, so if a "4xe Gladiator" had a little less towing and little less payload capacity, that would be just fine. I would think that...
  5. Jeep, where's the Gladiator love?

    They've already promised to reinstate and strengthen all the EPA regs, including CAFE numbers that the current admin rolled back. That cannot be good news for any big gas engine. I doubt it would happen in time to change any 2021 models, but it clearly could have severe impact for all future...
  6. 2021 Jeep Gladiator Willys Debuts With Unique Content and Increased Capability

    Problem is the Mojave is exactly as much as the Rubi (in some cases more), so why not get the extra hardware? I'm kinda surprised Jeep doesn't offer something between Sport and Rubi/Moj that isn't just a tape & stripe special. There's what, like *nine* different JT models listed on the JT web...
  7. 2021 Jeep Gladiator Willys Debuts With Unique Content and Increased Capability

    So.. stickers and a smattering of options that are available on literally any other Gladiator? Don't get me wrong -- I rather like the look of the Willys, but it would have been great if it would have had *something* special about it -- perhaps an option that current is only available on Rubi...
  8. NACHO IS NOW AVAILABLE ON THE GLADIATOR!!

    Finally! The Gladiator needs more bright colors; current choices are looking too much like 50 shades of gray... Dark Black Light Black Black Metallic Light Gray Sting Gray Silver Dark Silver on and on! :LOL: Personally, I like Nacho much better than the current Wrangler HellaYella (which...
  9. Trail Recon Gladiator

    It doesn't matter, really. Like you, I drive what I like, regardless of what other people think. But it is interesting to see what others are doing, esp when it comes to vehicles that are going to be true Wrangler competitors. I love Jeeps (I think this is Wrangler/JT number 6 or 7 in my...
  10. The "What Jeep is Now Offering Since the Bronco Unveil" Thread

    The LEAST Jeep needs to do is offer an optional 35" wheel/tire/4.56 gear package, available on every JL/JT trim level. We all know they fit without mods -- there is no reason NOT to offer it except laziness/complacency on Jeep's part. The Bronco's 35" Sasquatch tire package, available on every...
  11. Trail Recon Gladiator

    Agree on all counts. I like Brad and his videos. I also think the new Bronco is going to be a great, capable SUV and strong competitor for the Wrangler. However, after the Bronco is finally released, you'll see wall-to-wall 200% saturation of Bronco YouTube videos as everyone tries to grab...
  12. TSB steering box review

    Do tell! I want to hear THIS story...
  13. 6.4L V8 Hemi (392) possibly "real world" testing for future Gladiator model

    And now the fantastic GT350 Flat Plane crank motor is dead. :crying: A V8 option in the Wrangler/Gladiator would make sense. But it would be better if it was a less specialized (read: uses regular gas) version, and not a $70,000+ "TRX Fighter" high end vehicle.
  14. 6.4L V8 Hemi (392) possibly "real world" testing for future Gladiator model

    Totally agree. If I wanted a sporty car, I couldn't make a worse choice than a Gladiator with a hemi. I love sports cars, but have precisely ZERO interest in big 4x4 trucks with ultra-hipo engines. It's like putting a 426 in your forklift. Sure, it can be done, but really, you're battling...
  15. To Mojave, or Not to Mojave...

    Yup. That's why I said "the poster" and not nineball in my response to him. Sounds like you made the right choice. I agree with you -- both are good, and I think honestly, I'd be happy with either. Was just objecting to the statement that the R would "ride poorly 99% of the time" as it...
  16. To Mojave, or Not to Mojave...

    Yes, I read that. Nothing in that article supported the statement that the Rubicon "rides poorly 99% of the time (in comparison to the Mojave)". Certain areas/terrains the Rubicon was smoother (usually the slower rockier sections), other times the Mojave was better (high speed runs over...
  17. To Mojave, or Not to Mojave...

    Is the ride of the Mojave really noticeably better than the Rubicon? It doesn't seem logical to me that shocks aimed at high speed desert running would be *softer* than shocks made for low-speed rock crawling, where articulation and droop are king. All the tests and comparisons I've seen and...
  18. Gorilla Glass

    Has any objective source performed any testing on these new GG windshields showing that they are indeed more chip/crack resistant than OEM Gladiator windshields? Not arguing against the GG windshields -- I'd probably spring for one just on the possibility that it is better if the price...
  19. Gorilla Glass

    Just a note: check your deductible settings on your insurance. Most, if not all, insurance companies have 1 deductible for Collision (accidents, etc.), and another deductible for Comprehensive (theft, fire, vandalism, falling objects, glass breakage) -- this is where your windshield is...
  20. Maximus-3 JT Roof Rack System Officially Launched - Now Available

    @Maximus-3 Did you decide not to sell the bed bar (the one shown in your avatar), or is it just not released yet? Didn't see any mention of it on your website.
