I received a quote today for a second JTRD. My screwed up logic is that it is the best way to keep my miles low is to have two. And I love the one I have.

I can’t convince myself this isn’t a United States Forest Service vehicle with the paint scheme. Well, other than it is way nicer than a low bid government vehicle.
No! I would never lower my standards. :{)
I am a dirt digger or retired dirt digger! Ran a county hand crew. After two back surgeries and 35 years, they made me quit.
Well you are right! I arrived at the wrap shop at 10 in the morning and left at 2:30. He had to keep walking away to get away from it. He said he had never worked with a wrap with no much adhesive. Thankfully, he only charged me for two hours. The first one he installed over a year ago took...
My first grill wrap failed and started peeling after a year. Finally found another company that made a better looking one. I took it to a professional wrap installation place as I knew with my patience, it would have been bad. Glad I did as the owner of the shop wrestled with it for two...
The only issue I experienced with the Mopar lift is a little excessive sway. I have been thinking of upgrading to the AEV dual sport 3 inch with the HD springs. I have also been looking at the Accuair diesel suspension but damn it is a lot of coin. My first step is to get it on a scale and...
I actually complained to Harker about the seal on the back hatch. They said bring it in and we will make it right. They replaced the seal and added some weather stripping at the bottom.
I also bought a tailgate seal to help reduce the dust and it is pretty well sealed.
I run a JTRD with the Mopar 2 inch lift and 37’s. I went with the Harker Outdoors EDC. The wedge tent goes out to cover the tailgate allowing you to a place to stand up to get dressed. Important as you get older. It sets up quick and the customer support has been outstanding.
I added a single Hooke Off-road roof rack and a Yakima wind deflector to push the wind over my Harker Outdoor Shell. It was for better fuel economy but it may help your issue as well.

It looks like they are sold out but I will sell you my extra bar for 50 percent off plus shipping.

I was hoping to figure out a way to return to better MPG’s after I put a Harker Outdoors EDC on my JTRD. It is basically a catchers mitt for air coming over the roof. I purchased a Hooke Off-road roof racks and placed one of them in front of the gap between the roof and camper. I put a Yakima...
I have a 21 JTRD and absolutely love it with 20,000 miles on it. Mine runs damn good too! Def is really not that big of deal or expense. Get it and the fuel at Costco.
Are they in good shape? If so, they should be worth something as they get tore up occasionally. If we were not so far away, I would be interested in them.
