  1. Doorless Mirrors

    I have these too. Cheap & easy. I bought a few nylon washers and snugged them up. Good to go.
  2. Issue loading dog into backseat

    We had a ramp that was great for getting our 13 YO (80# Black Lab) into the back of my wife's Outback. You are right. The Glad's doors don't open far enough for a ramp (at least ours). The pooch got used to being lifted and manhandled into the back seat for 18 months until he passed. At 13...
  3. What’s your best mod for appearance, comfort, bang for the buck and usability?

    You guys crack me up! On my basic Sport (manual, crank windows) I added a magnetic cell phone holder and a ski rack. Could not be happier with my current setup. Oh, and I cut a couple of 2x4s to fit in the slots in the bed to keep grocery bags in place. Not a rock crawler, but do have lots...
  4. Who knew! Damnit!

    Thank you! I did not know rusting steel wheels from the inside was a real issue. Good to know!
  5. Who knew! Damnit!

    So at the end of the day, why nitrogen?
  6. Who knew! Damnit!

    Water and antifreeze would be just as easy and less corrosive. Perhaps more toxic if a tire leaked.
  7. This is so easy.

    I am 16 months in and have bought only a Mopar roof rack. The bed is too short to carry X-C skies with the tailgate up. Oops, sorry! I also bought a big Green Bay Packers decal for the rear window!
  8. Who knew! Damnit!

    Can someone explain the supposed advantage of nitrogen to me. I am a chemical engineer and most arguments I hear are bunk. Air is 72% nitrogen and ignoring minor components 28% oxygen. Nitrogen (N2) as a molecular weight of 28, Oxygen (O2) is 32. So N2 at 28 v. air, a 72/28 blend of N2/O2...
  9. Gas Prices Are Still Dropping With No Signs Of Stopping.

    40+ years in the refining business here. I have seen so many up and down cycles that yo-yos seem slow motion to me. Make no mistake, prices will rise again and ramp it up another notch. Th big difference now is refiners are NOT investing. Politics don't support it. The next high will be...
  10. How long did your windshield last before cracking?

    Had a small rock chip at about 2 months. Too small for the Safelite guy to bore out and fix. He squired some epoxy(?) on it and smoothed it out. Now at 16 months --- now issues. Are windshield cracks a thing with Gladiators?
  11. How it started...and how it's going. Post yours!

    September 2021 and Current. Nothing changed other than a new ski rack.
  12. Does anyone wish the wrangler platform would shrink...

    I loved my 2005 LJ! Traded it and a 2013 Frontier for Vlad the Glad. Should have kept the LJ and come up with the extra cash for Vlad
  13. How long have you owned your Gladiator? Still Love it?

    Coming up on 1 year next week. Love it more than the day it was delivered (only mods were a roof rack for skis and a bikini top)!
  14. Gladiator buyers - have you owned a Wrangler?

    I've owned 2 Wranglers prior to Vlad (also owned a 1985 Cherokee). Both Wranglers were bought used. A 1991 that I drove until it died about 15 years later (it was driven by two of my kids). In 2018 I bought a 2005 Wrangler Unlimited (Unlimited were longer 2 doors back then) with only 30K...
  15. HEADS UP... NO ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

    Don’t have it in my JT. The wife’s Subaru has it. Priorities man!
  16. Would you buy a base gladiator if you couldnt do any mods?

    I would. Unless you count putting a mat in the bed and adding a rack on the roof for skis, that‘s what I did. Sport model. Works well in the snow for hauling light stuff. Not gonna rock crawl here. No plans for further mods.
  17. Backup camera zoom feature works only sometimes

    Just all strange, but I solved a first world problem. Thanks for the clue!
  18. Backup camera zoom feature works only sometimes

    Thanks, I can't explain it, but now I know a workaround. Hit the start button with the transmission in reverse and the zoom will work. I pull the boat maybe 10 times a year. Not worth a trip to the dealer to sort it out (and I suspect they might no able to). Cheers!
  19. Backup camera zoom feature works only sometimes

    Standard 5" screen on a Sport with Manual X-Mission. Do you have auto or manual?
