  1. Missing Easter Eggs

    2021 Sport S w/Max Tow. No wheel stamp. I picked up some 2020 Wrangler Take-off's w/sensors and the Jeep Stamp on them. These wheels are for my winter tires and makes changing them around super easy. Yes, the factory tires are M&S tires but I run dedicated winter tires in the winter. I...
  2. The hardest vehicle to hand wash - ever!

    Love this post! She's a horrible beast to try and keep clean. We're not going to get into how much time I spend cleaning this thing... The only tip I have is for the interior. After I sanitize my hands with a wipe (coming back from a shop or fuelling the truck), I also give the inside a...
  3. My Gladiator is the most polarizing vehicle I’ve ever owned.

    Yes, it's a very polarizing vehicle. Even in my own family, opinions on it are strong. The other day, my daughter and I were driving and she pipes up "I feel like a Princess when I'm in this truck". Well, that was an interesting comment, "Why do you feel like a Princes in here"? "Everybody...
  4. Jeep Acronym?

    The other day, my little guy commented on a Ford truck that was being loaded onto the back of a tow truck... "Fix Or Repair Daily" was his comment as we drove by. I cracked up as I wasn't expecting it. I responded with "I think you mean F***ing Old Rebuilt Dodge". My impressionable teen found...
  5. Off Road Pages screen gripe

    When I was in the market to purchase, I looked at ordering what I wanted. Dealer here quoted me 6-8 months with emphasis on the 8 months. I then asked them to bring in the Jeep I had located online that was on a lot in the interior (I was fine with any additional costs). They were only...

    Interesting, I didn't know about that option. Thanks

    I wasn't really interested in the Rubi, or other models as I was specifically searching for the Sport with the Max Tow package. There was 1 up in Parksville but it had very few options in it.

    I do see an awful lot of Green on that Texas Map... :giggle: Not sure where you're taking all of that but okay, I'll bite! :LOL: Do try to note that I'm not the one who brought up Texas. I know better, Texan's can be downright loco. I think it's all that smog that's gitt'n to y'all. And that...
  9. First REAL towing with the Gladiator Overland -- 4900 pounds tow load

    I fully agree! What many driver's don't get is that vehicles pulling trailers are recommended to travel at 55MPH (roughly 90km/h). If they think you're holding them up at 55MPH, they're going to love travelling at 0 MPH due to an overturned truck & trailer blocking the HWY.
  10. Off Road Pages screen gripe

    Yes, they are all on the cluster. 1 screen at a time vs. the head unit where they are all displayed at once. Pulling a load up a steep grade, you don't want to flip from screen to screen, taking your eye's off the road longer than you should in order to make sure that you're reading what you...

    Unfortunately, upgrading wasn't an option in my case. This was 1 of 4 trucks in all of B.C. and 3 of them were barely over base model trucks.
  12. Off Road Pages screen gripe

    No, not really... B.C. 364,764 Square Miles. Texas 268,596 Square Miles. All of Texas and a little more than half of California kind of big.

    Due to lengthy build times for vehicles in 2021, custom ordering my "perfect Gladiator" wasn't an option. I located the "closest" version to what I would have built and bought it. I ended up with 95% of what I would have ordered so it's pretty darn close. At the time, there were exactly 4 Max...
  14. Mountain Bikes - How are you guys carrying them??

    This is exactly what I have done with an old 2x4 that I had laying around. If I tally up all the bike racks I've purchased and sold over the years (none are ever perfect), it's easily in the several thousand dollar range. Nothing is as easy or as cost effective as this set-up. All in, I might...
  15. First REAL towing with the Gladiator Overland -- 4900 pounds tow load

    Your experiences were pretty similar to mine. The fuel economy of the Gladiator was substantially better than that of towing with the Ram, enough so that it is very worthy of being mentioned. I too felt that the RPM's on the Gladiator were pretty high while towing. Granted, the little Penstar...
  16. How do you guys carry your kayaks?

    Didn't see the Sport Rack posted so I figured I'd add it to the list. Unlike the Thule/Yakima versions, this is a fixed height rack. Being that I don't keep the rack permanently mounted on this truck, the height adjustable option of the Thule/Yakima racks are of no real use to me anyway. It's...
  17. Leaking axle seal?

    Build 1-21. Rear passenger side leaking... Parts backordered until OCTOBER! Tech response, "just drive it until the parts get here, the worst that will happen is the seal will blow and the fluid will all leak out..." LOL, okay... if you say so! By the time the parts get here, I may be in...
  18. A little stash. Hidden compartment

    Haha, I do notice there are no Jeeps in that pile of junked vehicles!
  19. A little stash. Hidden compartment

    What exactly is "Squirrel Money"?
  20. First Tow with the Gladiator and comparing it to the same trip using my old RAM with the 5.7 and our old Dakota before that

    Exactly, you ran the Diesel hard to blow out the soot/waste, they're dirty. With all the emissions equipment required on vehicles these days, that waste becomes a problem. Those old diesel pick-ups that ran forever did so because the motor components are beefier (diesel motors run on a higher...
