  1. May Give the Gladiator Another Go

    When I bought my JT, I consulted a "friend of a friend" (Rick Pewe). He said "it's simple" - that if I wanted to go fast in the dez, buy the Mojave. If I wanted to crawl over nasty $#!@ to get where I wanted to get to, buy a Rubicon. I ended up with the Rubicon. Super happy with my choice...
  2. Recall: 1M+ Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator Fire Risk (June 9, 2026)

    I've gotten the official notice from FCA US. Haven't bothered to read it yet. I'm not really worried, and will "get around to it" when it's convenient. My biggest "issue" is that I've managed to avoid the dealer for 3 years after buying it new. It's got a taser hooked up, and I don't really...
  3. Are 35" tires the best for the Gladiator?

    JT Rubicon, 4.10s, Clayton 2.5 (really 3-3.5) lift, 35" Toyo Open Country AT3's. Love the look, the drive, and rarely scrape out on the moderate trails. If you're doing difficult to harder trails, why a Gladiator? You're going to have to put a LOT more $$$$ into it to make it perform in those...
  4. July 4th Badge of Honor

    Tried multiple times over the 3rd and 4th. It was a FAIL. Every....single.....time. Jeep has seriously dropped the ball with this app. Could have been great, but it's been a failure for me every time except once. Hey, I got a single badge though a couple of years ago. LOL As of this...
  5. Recall: 1M+ Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator Fire Risk (June 9, 2026)

    maybe we could use this one, and one of the graphics guys here could put a smiley face on the grill...... :D :D
  6. The Future for 2027 Models and Beyond 1984 Big Brother Controlling

    You sir and your kind - with all due respect - are the biggest part of the problem we have. And you don't even see it. Sad....
  7. In my defense I was left unsupervised.

    I'm impatiently awaiting a response from the OP...... :LOL:
  8. What’s the best trip you’ve taken in your Gladiator so far?

    Moab. Both times. Always an unforgettable experience.
  9. Done with Rotopax

    Significantly cheaper than Rotopax. Better made. GREAT vent. Came with both FAST nozzle (which is what initially attracted me), as well as the CA compliant nozzle - which immediately met my trash can. https://www.ebay.com/itm/224620743129 As soon as I received one, I immediately bought a...
  10. For Me, No More Wheeling at Large Events

    I agree on the "wheeling in AZ". LOVE it!!! I was referring to riding off-road motorcycles in AZ - especially up in the mountains where I live. Anytime you can see elevation change - either up or down - it can get pretty brutal, pretty fast. For an old man, it can take a lot of stamina...
  11. For Me, No More Wheeling at Large Events

    I hear ya... AZ can be BRUTAL. Rocks upon rocks upon rocks. Coming from CA, it caught me offguard. So much so that I left dirt biking behind, and moved to Jeeps cause the trails are really not suited for 2 wheels (in great part). I'm sorry for your experience. I learned early on with dirt...
  12. Cargo Basket Roof Rack With Ladder & LED Lights! - by MONOKING

    Nice Design. Decent price! One day I'll get one.... Bookmarked!!!!
  13. Method beadgrip wheels and BFG KO3s, lowest pressure?

    I don't normally go that low, but I'd be confident you'll have no problems. I've seen videos with the bead grips well below 10PSI and they were fine. The Beadgrips are fantastic - I love em. I think the only "issue" might be if you're throwing the truck sideways at speed in deep sand. Then I...
  14. Northern AZ trail fun.....

    Gotcha!! Yup, hope they open 354 back up soon!!
  15. Northern AZ trail fun.....

    Via helicopter?? heh heh. 127 ends at a cliff - zero opportunities for any way down to the south as it's on foot only via wilderness hiking trail. Old Perkinsville (FS354?) is rough and has a bad washout last time I was there, but is probably doable from either S to N or N to S. Haven't been...
  16. Northern AZ trail fun.....

    FYI - Ol' 127 is only accessable from the top of the plateau. Not the bottom unfortunately. Also, the view to the ruins we mentioned above is just barely blocked when you get to the end of 127. Still, a wonderful overlook overall. I hope you're right on the ruins access. Yeah, used to be...
  17. Northern AZ trail fun.....

    You're welcome!! If you get west on the 40 towards Williams, the above trail(s) are easy to access.
  18. Northern AZ trail fun.....

    Yup. Those are them. The USFS has sort of limited / changed access. Or at least they were implementing changes before they got DOGE'd. I hesitate to think what is going to happen to these ruins now that they are more publicly "advertised" by the USFS. Have you been up on the rim and done the...
  19. Northern AZ trail fun.....

    Here's another one for any of you folks living or visiting central / northern AZ.... Good times.
