  1. You're still not 100% Happy, and I get it.

    I more than understand all the critiques of this vehicle but for me its absolutely what I wanted. I came from a manual mazda 3 (that I had 10k into the stereo) that I drove for nearly 10 years and absolutely loved until i was tboned and rolled. While I loved that car I wanted more space to go to...
  2. Regearing Stock Mojave?

    Yeah I wasnt necessarily looking to regear unless I went up tire size which is still a ways out but one rabbit hole led to another and i started wondering if there was something out there or a reason for people who may have opted to do it outside of the obvious towing And or tire upgrade. But...
  3. Regearing Stock Mojave?

    Interesting and thank you for the vid. Ive been going down the rabbit hole of engine swaps for entertainment and that got me thinking of the potential on gearing overall within manuals and it seems by your anecdote about the s2000 i wasnt the only one to think about it but now i get it
  4. Regearing Stock Mojave?

    Ahhh. As I sit and think on that more it makes more sense and just completed the puzzle for me in terms of mechanics and how that translates to performance. How im thinking about it is the higher gear ratio the more power from the engine is shifted to support better lower gear power/torque with...
  5. Need Help Deciding Which Gladiator

    For sure take your time during these processes! If something doesnt feel right take a step back and even ask here. If the car sells in that time oh well, they certainly made more than one of them so youll see something else soon enough. As some one else recommended taking a friend, ideally...
  6. Regearing Stock Mojave?

    Hey guys. Ive looked all over for this and couldnt find anything on it. My question was what happens or i guess if there is any benefit to regearing and keeping the stock 33 tires. I understand that changes the power/torque ratios but what impact would that truly have on daily driving, mileage...
  7. Manual Transmission Discontinued for 2025

    On jeeps site they have the manual up for order in the configurator with the v6. The auto option is only available for the v4 turbo. Real tired of these manufacturers opting for the turbo 4 bangers but i digress… However, in the gladi’s case they only raised base price by like $200 for auto...
  8. Manual Transmission Discontinued for 2025

    While all thats true theres just something about being in total control of the engine and the intuitive nature of manual that I’ll never give it up. For me it was so bad that after my manual 15’ mazda 3 hatchback (fun ass car to drive) got totaled in March, i bought a 24’ CX30 (not the car I...
  9. Need Help Deciding Which Gladiator

    Im clearly bored tonight so final thoughts and I hope it helps. But again. If the premise is for this to be your final vehicle purchase then I personally would look to make sure it checks all my boxes for things I need and would spend a little extra for low miles if necessary. As far as power...
  10. Need Help Deciding Which Gladiator

    Further followup to my last comment, I searched up used gladi sports and sport s’s in the colors you were looking for with my search set to 500 miles and I already see multiple at lower miles and comparable prices that can further be negotiated down as well. For example, i see a 20’ sport s with...
  11. Need Help Deciding Which Gladiator

    I agree with this statement here. I recently purchased a Mojave a little over a month ago and I was on the fence between 2 different manual models. One was a 23’ with 30k miles but had warm weather package, cloth seats and tow pkg. the other was at 15k miles, no warm weather group, tow pkg and...
  12. Badge theft a thing?

    My mind immediately went to that scene in ā€œthe other guysā€ where alan’s prius is trashed by homeless people that had an orgy in it. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ wtf
  13. Badge theft a thing?

    Thats nearly as diabolic of a ā€œfuck youā€ as ordering a large coke and it filled entirely of ice..
  14. Manual Transmission Discontinued for 2025

    I was reading on this earlier today and its an absolute shame but it makes me happier that I got the gladi mojave I did in manual. For me that was the main selling point. Like I wanted a truck but love manuals. So that left me with a tacoma or a gladi. But ive always liked jeeps too so it was...
  15. Badge theft a thing?

    Lol. No one can get their hands on a ford emblem since they are always in the shop ;) but im dead
  16. Badge theft a thing?

    Im dead. Lets hope it doesnt go that way since we’d all love cheaper gas again… šŸ˜‚
  17. Badge theft a thing?

    I see what you are getting at and makes sense. Just never thought that ā€œdesert ratedā€ or any trail badges for that matter would be something so dumb people would go out of their way to prey it off a car. Whatever though. I was gonna rebadge the rest of the car except for jeep logos and was on...
  18. Badge theft a thing?

    Aint that the truth… its sad to know especially with something as sick as the Gadsden flag. I love history and its by far my favorite due to its origins and history. Its sad that we no longer live in a society that accepts differing opinions or makes everything into something its not :/ Dont...
  19. Badge theft a thing?

    Lol. I wish that were the case but it was our first night there and pretty well open parking lot haha.
  20. Badge theft a thing?

    Honestly agreed and Im in the same boat. Primary reason I never put anything (right leaning) political on and even the gadsden snake can be twisted into something its not now adays..
