  1. Winter rescues of stranded drivers...

    Yeah, need a tire or something squishy, especially with modern car bumpers, and still go very softly.
  2. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    Of all of winter weather, there is nothing I enjoy less than freezing rain or freezing fog.
  3. has anyone seen a radio screen do this?

    2nd on software being the root cause of the problem.
  4. IMPORTANT BATTERY INFO FOR ALL JT OWNERS

    '63 VW Bug too, 6v.
  5. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    It is just an Arrow 10 x 12 metal shed; should have it finished tomorrow. Out of the classic project three choices, Good/Fast/Cheap, this one has to be fast and cheap. The moisture barrier, pavers, and plywood are to create a good foundation and floor, while keeping to quick and cheap.
  6. Parking Brake "Push Button" Rattle

    There is a thread or two or many about adjusting the cable underneath the console, as well as at the rear wheels. The rattle from the cables at the handle could be the root cause. I had to tighten mine a couple times. There was a clank when releasing the parking brake. If you have a clanking...
  7. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    Hauled a little over 620 lbs of concrete pavers and 210 lbs DIY shed parts, then used the bed and tailgate as the workbench.
  8. In Australia - Where are the Jeeps?

    Yup, but still much more expensive than the Hi-Lux ($46k USD) or BT-50 ($40k USD), and diesel too.
  9. Winter is coming! How do you clear the snow on your vehicle??

    From when we lived in snow states (CO, WA, KY), I used my arms and hands to clear inches snow from the hood to roof to the back, then a snow scraper for the glass if there was ice. The hood is important unless you like snow flying on to the windshield. Anyway, just a way to keep warm while...
  10. In Australia - Where are the Jeeps?

    I decided to VPN to Australia and give prices a look. In $ ASD, a Mazda BT-50 is something like $60k. Toyota Hi-Lux is something like $70k JTR is something like $90k So price is part of why JTs are rare in Australia. And there have to be other reasons why the BT-50 and Hi-Lux are not...
  11. An advantage of amber fog lights

    Yup yellow safety glasses, the ones meant to filter out/block gray, are great; have a couple sets in every vehicle. They work great helping to see through mist/spray from other cars when on the interstate during rain as well as fog and snow.
  12. 2020 Gladiator with 76k miles has never had 4WD engaged

    I don't think anything would be "broken". Shifting the transfer case is might be more difficult than say at 100 miles; about all I can think of, but, not an expert on this situation.
  13. Towing/transmission question (don't laugh please)

    Yes, those mileage punishing headwinds when going from So Cal to AZ
  14. In-dash advertisement opt-out

    I wonder though, if the main LTE antenna is disconnected, leaving only the RX2, how the transmission of telemetry still occurs, the uploads. I'll disconnect the satellite antenna and see what happens, if the UConnect apps remain "unlicensed".
  15. In-dash advertisement opt-out

    That is one way to increase sales, for other manufacturers.
  16. In-dash advertisement opt-out

    The only ad received here was for the extended warranty (service plan), and then just once. It was very annoying. It would show up every time we stopped, then disappear when we started moving again, that is until I saw the close button.
  17. In-dash advertisement opt-out

    Interesting, as this is the state the JTR here is in, disconnected at the head unit. Ah, I think I get it. TY!
  18. In-dash advertisement opt-out

    There is one antenna connected to the head unit, that goes to the top of the cage. And then there is a second cellular antenna behind the driver side knee speaker. My google-fu is failing me at the moment, but there is a thread about replacing the knee speakers. That is where I found how to...
  19. ⚡️ 2026 JEEP RECON Debut. 650 hp / 620 lb-ft, 0-60 in 3.6 sec, 250 miles range

    Probably not for those in Gladiators or Wranglers, from TFA "Recon is right there, geometry wise, with the likes of the Mercedes G-Class, Toyota Land Cruiser, and Rivian R1S". Interesting, but is even more likely to never touch dirt.
  20. Put an OBD2 Port Lock on your Truck

    Anywhere within a few hours drive of a neighboring country is a target area. There was a brief rash of Jeep thefts about an hour north of LA a couple months ago.
