You can buy the RUBICON decal, so if you remove it and regret it, you can buy another one and put it back on.
I bought my JTR used and the previous owner took the decal off. I drove it around as a āstealthā Rubicon for awhile but then added the sticker back because I like the way it looks.
$195/hour at a shop near me in Golden, CO.
Heard a rumor that another popular 4x4 shop in Englewood, CO is at $200/hour, but I donāt know that for sure as Iāve never had work done there.
The article forgot to mention difficulties when towing with an F-150 Lightining ā terrible range, and then you have to stop to charge at chargers that are not optimized for a vehicle towing a trailer so the trailer has to be disconnected and put somewhere else before charging.
I have a ā21 Rubicon with the 6-speed manual.
Iām not new to manual transmissions but I had some trouble getting used to the clutch on mine and stalled it a couple times. I thought maybe there was something wrong with me. Iāve found that turning OFF the hill assist helped a lot, as I actually...
In terms of Jeeps, Iāve either had or have:
* 1997 XJ Sport. Patriot Blue. Automatic. Still regret selling it.
* 2007 JK 2-door X model. Black. 6-speed manual. Still have it, still love driving it.
* 2021 JTR. Sting Gray. 6-speed manual. Iāve been super happy with it.
I donāt watch TrailRecon very much anymore and agree with the sentiment of others on this thread, that many of the channels that are popular today (TrailRecon, Casey250, Lifestyle Overland, and I hate to include TSTN but I will) were arguably better a couple years ago when they were more...
I have nothing against Toyota. In fact, I owned a 2014 Tacoma for a couple of years and really liked it.
However, back in July I had a brand new Tundra as a rental as a result of the rental car agency running out of the category of car I had reserved. The infotainment system was pretty bad in...
I think thatās a good idea. I think about my older Jeeps from time to time. I had a ā97XJ that I still regret selling, but I had to do it at the time. I think thatās why I wanted to hold on to my JK because Iām at a point in my life where I can afford to keep it In addition to my JT.
Now I...
Itās up to you. Do what makes you happy!
I kept my ā07 JK and I bought a ā21 JTR back in January. I still enjoy driving the JK around town and occasionally take it out on the trail, but the JTR is pretty much better for me in every other way. If I got into a situation where I couldnāt keep...
Oh please, my first job out of college was in a public employee union environment in California in which the biggest work hazard was sitting at a desk. Iām not saying that people donāt deserve fair pay for what they do, but in my case I eventually went into the private sector, in a non-union...
I know this is an old thread, but just in case it helps anyone:
Bought my 2021 JTR in January 2023. 6MT. Had 13,500 miles or so on it, now has about 20,000 miles on it. Previous owner installed a 4ā Readylift and 40ā tires, but didnāt really beef up any of the other steering components And it...
Are you using a Tazer? If so, the process to get everything to work correctly is slightly different than it is with an automatic transmission. I had the issue you mention after re-gearing my Gladiator with the MT.
Youāll need to do the steps described here...
I agree with you. Although I feel like if Stellantis can devise a repair thatās just barely good enough and leverages the existing clutch (like the previous software update), theyāll do it. However I agree with you that itās probably very difficult to leave any of the existing/flawed parts in...
That would be amazing. Iāve driven a manual for a long time but I feel like I still have some trouble driving the manual in my JT, where Iām a little hard on the clutch sometimes because the pedal has such a light feeling.
I doubt theyād replace the entire clutch but we can hope!
I have Sting Gray, but I wish some better bright colors were offered. If they brought back Gecko Green or offered something like Mojito or Bikini, Iād buy any of those colors.
I wanted to like the current yellow thatās out now but I didnāt like it enough to buy it.
You can negotiate on used Jeeps, but you probably wonāt be getting a huge percentage off of the asking price like you can when you order new and use the affiliate code + incentives.
I bought my 2021 (used) earlier this year and negotiated about $3500 off of the price. But it was a 2-week...
Did you follow the break-in instructions after having the regear done?
I know when I had mine done, I had to put on a certain number of miles in 2WD and drive it in varying conditions a couple times. Then had to take it back to the shop at about 500 miles and have them check it out and they...
I would consider the hard top, even though I know it adds to the cost. Only reason is this ā if you reallllly want the soft top, itās easy to find/buy a used one and/or buy a Bestop or similar. I think itās more difficult to find someone willing to part with a hard top if you decide you want...
