Something about the Mojave model brings out a lot of angst over it for some reason.

I think it should be your fifth Gladiator

I will just put a "MOJAVE" sticker on my Sport hood and call it good. Rumor is that is what the 2026 Mojave model will be at the current rate of decontent.

Probably. I'm just here for the educational talk about how Jeep engineers get together to discuss 'phasing-in' engineering changes to trims like removing steering wheels that clearly don't work.

lol you've been here less than a month.

Two weeks now actually. But have only owned the gladiator for a week now lol.

I bought the Mojave for the underpinnings and the Fox Shox.... I've been riding on Fox since the beginning of time.

Your strong opinion on the subject has been noted.

You also noticed that there's a lot of non-orange stitching in these - including the handles, around the seats and other areas. Pics I took of the 2024 a year ago show a whole lot of non-orange stitching through the whole truck.

Interesting as my 2024 (Jan 24 build) has all the orange stuff.

Yeah, the first half of 2025s do too. Jeep's just cutting costs and content.

2026 rubicons won't have lockers. And a 2.7 box rather than 4.1

Annnnnd the spin off 2025 Mojave X Steering Wheel thread is gone.

Naw, you've probably been ignored/blocked.
It's still there - if you aren't logged in.
He's simply blocked me because he didn't like my posts disagreeing with his contentions on it being a performance wheel.

BTW - yes, FCA and others DO actually get people involved in comfort and other items. I've been called to talk about seat comfort, and was asked to join a group discussing the radio, how much I'd pay for various things, and so on. I was actually paid for my comments and participation. So I know yes - people get asked and they do gather our input.

Very happy with my Mojave - and the steering wheel and stitching. It's a darned truck, not a status symbol. The really important stuff that makes it a Mojave is there.
I like that the steering wheel matches the shifter knob, brake handle and so on.

It's become almost like some sort of status symbol.

probably for the best.... the dude from san diego left me a nice condescending note at midnight. I quoted him and soon after his post was gone and so was the quote. Thats why that message above about MFG inventory reduction sits there without appropriate context.

since I got $10K off MSRP I'll go buy a Mojave steering wheel and store it. Steering wheels are a wear item.

It's there, but if you can't see it, he blocked you...........

Still there. If you aren't you.

Wow…. I’m not familiar with how this site works. Should I go offer him a crying towel?

I guess he takes the thumb pads and orange stitching seriously.
