If you could do it over - What would you change?

[Trickster]

If I could do over, I would most likely buy something else

Dissatisfied I am assuming. Sell it, move on, be happy.

I wouldn’t say I’m 100% dissatisfied. I’m just saying if I had to do over I would have bought another vehicle. It’s my first Jeep, I like it because it’s different. I’ve enjoyed driving it on the beach and in the snow. I’m just use to driving chargers and challengers, going fast. I think if the gladiator had a v8 option it would be the perfect vehicle. I’ve also had some electrical issues and leak issues which have bothered me. I don’t think jeeps are for everyone.

I would not have gotten the manual transmission.

I would have been more patient and waited for a color I wanted, which was anything bright and fun. Instead I bought a white in April and 2ish months later Gecko was available. The seat color in my Mojave would not have been my first choice but they have grown on me.

I did get a great deal on mine as the dealer had it marked down almost $6000 off MSRP to move it, so I won’t complain too much.

If I had to do it again, I would have went with LED headlights and dual top group. Still keeping the Diesel though.

Diesel Rubicon... shouldn't have driven my buddies! I must say that I am very happy with my choice, but that diesel has that torque!!

Diesel. I love my Mojave, but would’ve taken a diesel sport. Hell of a lot cheaper for suspension than an engine swap

 

[HouseOfWolves]

I did get to do it again! I went from a fully loaded gasser rubi to a more slimmed down diesel rubi. I changed the color from black to blue and now I kinda miss having the safety groups and trail rail system. I will be adding the proximity door handles soon though

What wheels/tires are on that black JTR?

Mojave and aux switches. Katzkin leather in mahogany.

The deal I got on my truck was so good that I would have purchased it no matter what. (dealer honored a pricing snafu) I could have sold it the same day for a profit.

Nothing with the actual JT order. I would, however, redo my lift and not buy the RK Pro X lift. Instead I would have gotten the rear cradle and Upper arms from RK, but go with a different company for the rest of the lift. It is just disappointing.

Rubicon with a 6 spd. I bought the Sport S automatic off the lot in a quick last minute decision when the dealer was giving me a hard time about an issue with my 19 Ram. My goal is to wait until ( hopefully ) there is a different engine option than the current 2 and possibly get a Rubicon then. The 6 spd probably won't be an option but that's OK, I don't need my wife destroying a clutch learning to drive one. LOL

Power door locks....

But I liked my Willys even as a sport. I don't need everything else. It's annoying that I have to use a key to open the doors and put the key back in my pocked. Then I have to open doors for all of my passengers. I should leave a bad review for Sport Gladiators. Just for that. I don't know a single manufacturer that doesn't offer power locks on their base vehicle anymore. I like the roll up windows. Because when Im offroad. Passengers don't need my key to roll down their windows when Im not in the car doing something else.

They do offer power door locks on the sport

Not the Sport or Willys Sport. You have to get the "S" or the Willys.

There are still pins in the doors with manual windows and locks.

Yeah, I think those are for the overhead/dome light. Maybe some other things. Regardless, less things to have to worry about going wrong. I know with my YJ unplugging the harness disables the interior lights when the doors are off and that's about it.
