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...
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...
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
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...
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...
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...
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 gladiās case they only raised base price by like $200 for auto...
While all thats true theres just something about being in total control of the engine and the intuitive nature of manual that Iāll never give it up. For me it was so bad that after my manual 15ā mazda 3 hatchback (fun ass car to drive) got totaled in March, i bought a 24ā CX30 (not the car I...
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...
Further followup to my last comment, I searched up used gladi sports and sport sās 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 20ā sport s with...
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 23ā 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...
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...
I see what you are getting at and makes sense. Just never thought that ādesert 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...
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...
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..
