Update: After a conversation with company support, RSE agreed to send a replacement step. After waiting, it did take a follow up call to remind them, but to their credit they did follow through. A mounting bracket had changed, RSE said they’d send the new one. After waiting a duration for the...
I would also jump at the chance to purchase a diesel JT Rubi. I was leary of the diesel due to initial problems. By the time I decided to look for one, they stopped making them and I was unable to find what I wanted.
I'm in SW WI. That said, for a good portion of the winter we generally take the motorhome towing the JT south. You do need to wash the mechanisms and lubricate periodically. I haven't had any issues with the salt impacting the motors as the motor and gears are in a sealed unit. My problem...
I wish it was a "Buy once Cry once" type of thing, but that has not been my experience. Within the first year after I put them on the motor on the driver's side had to be replaced ... gears were stripped. The following year the same thing.

@Escape.idiocracy, thanks for that information. I wasn’t aware of the need to replace the HPFP, although given the pressures it sure makes sense. It’s been a while since I’ve kept a vehicle for 120k miles but expect to do so if I find a diesel JTR that fits my desires. Thanks for the heads up.
@SargeDiesel, I agree, unlike this thread, many are negative posts. And yes, I guess my biggest concern was the recall issues you mentioned, the most concern with the HPFP.
If I find a new 2023 Diesel JTR, is it reasonable to assume that issue would have already been addressed, and is the fix...
Very nice, like the Sage Green
One of the things that has been mentioned is the mileage. Couple that with the torque and I am very interested. We drag our current 2020 JTR behind our motorhome and look for crawling opportunities. He have about 45k miles on it and after 2500 miles in 5 days...
