I did Diode Dynamics headlights and had to run a program that prevented light flickering and other issues since the Jeep wasn't standard with LED. Overall I like the Diode Dynamics version better than factory offerings. They don't have that crazy look you find in most aftermarket offerings.
Yea the 3.0 inline isn't likely until the remodel. I don't think it would be beneficial to do crash tests with a new engine in 2028, then remodel and do crash tests again. I'm all for it and would much prefer the inline over my eco diesel. Of course a powertrain similar to the Ramcharger...

Interesting read for some of us who use it. It usually starts off small then expands to other areas. Over 300 miles is a lot of loss for us who use(d) it.
Since it's not a complete redesign along side its counterpart, the Wrangler, It'll likely be full float rear axle and some interior refinements just like the Wrangler. I wouldn't be interested in 4xe until it's paired up with the inline 6. If Mazda can pair their inline 6 with a hybrid...
Pricing will likely be upwards of $50k to $70k start. Heck the Renegades are marked up $10 over MSRP already, so you know it's only going to go up. Especially with the UAW strike that might happen. I"d still buy it though with all the right equipment on it, especially the 4xe version if it's...
I'd trade my ecoD for the I-6 as well. I"m tired of looking for the oil alone, plus my local store runs out of the DEF I like constantly. Has anyone heard of any issues with the I-6 in other platforms?
Wish they'd do a redesign sooner with the inline 6. I'd gladly walk away from my diesel with parts being more accessible on the inline, such as oil and oil filters. Finding the right parts and availability beyond the dealerships is getting harder. I've actually considered trading in for the GC...
They already have builds forecasted called the JT2 and the JL2 instead of moving over to the JM identifier. The "2" gives me all the reason to believe it's not dead; however, it might be a dramatic change in length. Possibly a shorter bed that folds into the cab to accommodate the longer...
I noticed the grab bar in front of the glovebox is a bigger one piece and wrapped in leather now. I wonder if this means the Wrangler will no longer have "Wrangler" embossed on it and will be more in line with the Gladiator? Or perhaps this is only on a particular trim level.
I like the Grand Wagoneer seats and lights, the air suspension adjustment, the front grill guard/seat, and the gladiator bed but with panels to close up the bed for other uses. New colors are always welcomed. I won't buy them, but I like to see people happy in what they bought.
If I'm not mistaken, it has Independent Front Suspension. Eventually this might be all we get for offroad from factory if Highway Safety has it's way. IFS results in less tip overs, but also less capabilities in some cases. I did see a Bronco owner convert their IFS to solid front axles on...
I like competition. It makes Jeep react better and improve things. No competition makes them idle along and dismiss peoples experience and forgo customer satisfaction. f
So i searched for the Pennzoil 5-40 and auto zone said the nearest store with it was 104 miles away. I then searched advanced auto and found them at 20 miles away. Went to the store and got the last 2 5 quart jugs. Manager informed me he won’t be getting any more again. Said they don’t sell...
