yep, we have a stupid amount of lot damage every month between porters, customer accidents, test drive mishaps etc... its just a part of business and its case by case if we claim on insurance but its never on the customer. It would have to be malicious for us to pursue someone for damages but we...

The biggest issue with towing in the gladiator imo is stopping. My truck with no load already barely wants to stop my 35s compared to how a fullsize truck feels. No way I want 10k pounds behind me unless its a one off thing and Ill just play it super safe, people are stupid though and you cant...

They owe you a full repair, a loaner, and a gas card to cover you needing to drive back and forth. They dont owe you a check imo. They can do that work without any damage or repairs being on the cars history. Trust me I know because a dealer hit something on the lot in my mustang. It took weeks...

whats the install like on these? do you need a "kit" or does it just bolt in stock? seems like a worthwhile upgrade for a few hundred bucks

Will you ship? I could be interested depending on shipping cost 34237

I'd take a hard look at the dupont kevlar for what you mean. and about the 17k sticker markup... normally I agree with dealer stuff but thats at least 8-10k in a linex job

Linex just is not made for that application. The dupont kevlar paint intrigues me because it seems to have much less texture and is actually made for that application

We put ridge grapplers on most of our dealership builds for raptors, f150s, and superduty trucks. Its my preference of tire for sure and its what I'll be putting on my jeep when I upgrade. They ride great on the road but still look very aggressive and perform well offroad. there are other great...

I should hace specified I do aftermarket builds for dealers, mainly a ford dealer, for them to sell on their lot. Thats probably pretty close if not a little less than what I would expect. I'll ask the Linex dealer we use here at the ford dealership what it would run for a consumer. Its a ton...

yeah I would 100% never recommend someone do it themselves, thats signing up for constant issues. Most linex dealers have long or lifetime warranties so if the roof fades or anything starts to fail they will redo it. We just had the roof of a light grey raptor resprayed for free since it was...

I'd recommend watching the "dip your car" tutorials. They break it down pretty easy. Just do a couple light coats to get a base layer for it to stick to, then you can start going with full wet layers so you get a smooth finish. A big thing too if you are doing them on the car, is roll the car...

The wheels were just like the day I put the dip on when I took it off. The biggest mistake people make is not putting enough coats on because they achieve the color they want and think its enough. You need a full can (if youre using aerosols) per wheel if you want it to peel correctly. not using...

we've done a few raptors full body. I haven't personally used the dupont kevlar but from pictures I think the finish is more suited for my tastes. The linex is almost too textured / matte in my opinion

depends how thick you went on the coats but I usually have used 6 or so coats. I've always had it last years on emblems and such and always look good. Lasted a year or so on the wheels on my 600 whp bmw, saw some HARD abuse. still looked good as new when I peeled it to sell the car. I'm...

odddl oddly enough i had the opposite experience the first few shifts. I had to pull it so hard the first time i thought i was going to snap the lever off going into 4hi. 4lo went smooth as butter sitting at a dead stop in neutral

I just went out and cycled through 4h and 4l a few times throughout different stopping points on my cruise and it already cycles through them WAY easier. Its a non-issue now. I honestly felt like i was doing something wrong the first few times because of how difficult it was but its all good...

nah, im good if i can go into 4 lo from a stand still. I just tried it for the first time and it didnt want to go but people have mentioned it loosens up after a while

I swapped on an otherwise stock suspension. Definitely worth the upgrade. Also if you can get the coils from the rubicon too it will net you another inch of lift(assuming you are talking about a spacer lift and not a coil spring lift)

When we do our builds for the ford dealership we give pennies on the dollar for peoples take offs if they want a credit, we always just tell them they're better off taking them and selling them privately. It's such a hassle for us to store them all and post them online, then deal with all the...

Here in Florida 4x4 is used 99% of the time to get out of mud or other slick situations(slimy boat ramp etc). Unless I was really intentionally going offroading or knew I obviously needed 4x4, I would always stay in 2wd until I spun enough to need 4x4, then I would stop and shift into 4x4 to...
