We ended up going during the invasion instead. 800 other jeeps means always someone around to help out. I tried the starter hill twice before realizing that I could not make it in 4 low. Learned to remove the ducks fromt hedahs pretty quickly. Like being inside a popcorn machine. They told...

We planned to keep it mostly stock and so far we have. Pretty much. We swapped to a Rock Hard 4x4 aluminum patriot front bumper so we could insal a Badlands Apex winch without adding too much weight and changing the design balance. This also allowed us to avoid adding a blue ox towing plate as...

It looks interesting. Can you use it with the hard top removed? Can you use it with the soft top? Will the ladder actually hold a person? Will it actually protect you in a roll, or is it just decorative? Made in the USA? How difficult is it to remove to change tops? Can you mount two...

Learned some things: A used top of the wrong color and a new primered top cost the same amount. A body shop paint job will not be as good as a factory paint shop paint job. The factory paint shops use super high tech techniques and bake the paint on too. (I knew that since the company I work...

Thank y'all. It was a while ago, but I had an awesome time. It was an organized event with over 800 jeeps so there was plenty of advice. Still I learned a few things the hard way. 1. Air down to 8 pounds. They actually came around an spot checked. They did nto want people getting stuck...

There are a number of differences that made us chose Mojave over Rubicon. We do nto rock crawl much so most Rubicon features seems unnecessary. Some of our deciding factors were: Cost Rubicon is $20 K more; more to insure and more maintenance/repair costs. Ride. Larger gas tank. Heavier...

Our carriage house burned down and the Gladiator Hardtop was near it and melted/burned. Luckily and unluckily it is covered by our homeowners, so we do not have to pay a second deductible and have our car insurance rates go up. Unlucky because the car insurance puts a new hard top on your...

We saw a manual that really interest me, but the massively reduced towing capacity and the fact that my wife is not comfortable driving a manual turned us away. Besides it was 6 hours away in Pennsylvania and we found a better deal half an hour away.

Thank you. We already bought it. We prefer the Mojave for a number of reasons and we are very happy with it so far. We have the purchase documents from when it was new. It was bought in an upscale Washington DC suburb (Virginia). It was driven 12,000 miles and then re-sold or at least...

We did not buy the salvage title due to the insurance issue. Also they said their was no damage due to the theft, but the Mojave decal is gone from the hood. We found one at a Ford Dealer near us for about $3K more than the salvage title one and with more options. This one is funny, because...

Worth it? Depends on what you are trying to accomplish by using it. For Jeep is it well worth it because it helps them meet federal standards. Those standards are indifferent to whether there is any net savings, all that matters is theoretical improvement. In the real world, you are...

I went through this a while back. I found Mojave to be more practical based on research (I have no experience with the two). Mojave rides better, handles potholed roads better and can go faster in 4 low. I think it has a slightly larger gas tank. It has all of the Rubicon advantages except...

I like these bumpers the best of any I have seen. Plan to get aluminum as it will reduce weight and balance out the added weight of the winch. However removing the skid plate the wraps the shock reservoir bothers me. I read that someone found a way to make modify the factor skid plate to work...

We just got our gladiator and are new to serious 4x4 sport. We have done a little offloading in a big heavy RAM but mostly just snow and forest trails and I turn around when anything looks scary because I did not want to get stuck in the middle of nowhere and I had no idea where my truck could...

No one will say "Oh I love it, it really adds to the driving experience." I am not a sit still kind of person. I am wiggly. Good song comes on, I need something from the back seat or glove-box, I wonder if i left anything sitting on the bed cover when I left and turn around to look, i see a...

Driving on the freeway for a long trip for the first time in our Gladiator, my wife had to get used to all the normal alarms for side, front and rear obstacles. She eventually did. however she said there is another alarm. Very high pitched. She said it sounds like when you pinch the nozzle...

That is a good idea. Not surprisingly we have many step stools around the house. Will see if we have anything that works like this one. If not I will get one. Even if she does not want to go to the trouble of setting it up to get in and out of the jeep, we can use it elsewhere. thank you.

I found the speaker, thank you all. I was surprised that it does not work with the radio, only with my phone. Still it has decent sound quality. After studying the sticker that was in the glove box I am amused by this original purchase. They simply checked every box for every option. Must...

My wife has the same issue. She is a little bit vertically challenged. We have the MOPAR rock sliders with a tiny bit of a step for really small feet. I am hoping she will get used to using that to get in and out. I would much prefer to spend $500 on something cooler than a step that is...

Thank you. We looked at that one but bought one from a dealer in Livonia on Friday.
