Anyone else with an LE get lock lugs? ;{
I got the lock lug nuts but I had to pay like $100 for it. I am pretty sure @BeepBeepIAmAJeep 's dealer threw them in for him. Good on him and his dealer! I did negotiate and get free all weather mats tho :D... I figured why not negotiate and see what I can get for free ;)

Yea that pretty much covers the basic annoyances ! I've been tolerating my very intermittent ESS on the 2016 WK2 with its piece of crap "mini-battery" ! IF, big if, I wind up keeping the WK2 the 1st thing to GO will be that mini-monstrosity and replace the system with a True Dual Battery System (Genesis most likely). Then a mild lift (yes I'm aware of the WK2 issues of this), new AT tires and the TraiHawk Rub-Rails . I might even remove the rear seating - like I plan to do IF I do get a JT .
Well, I have driven my Gladiator for less than 100 miles so far and I am already annoyed by the ESS intermittent or not, I just find it super annoying. The first thing I am going to do after I get the Tazer Mini is to disable this crap forever cuz I don't always remember to turn it off before every drive!

I don’t know if this has been broached before but would disabling the ess void the warranty?

Yea it's really a question - I BELIEVE - of the darn small inadequate "motor cycle sized secondary battery for the ESS . ESS is a GOOD GAS SAVER, Jeep or WE need to Improve that battery ! And the best way I am aware of is to delete it and go with a Dual Battery System - such as the GALAXY One ! Certainly would also help the efficiency of the Fridge too . I'm not the type to "TAZE" anything . . . I'd rather Improve On IT . The Fuel savings it REAL and it's sufficient enough of rme (currently) to tolerate the annoyances ! Cause I know once I hit the Highway to MT. the "Little" battery will get Fully Charged and the ESS will work just fine during the Whole Trip . . . just like the pst 2 years trips -- Colorado '17, MT. '18 .

EDIT ~ 1 HR. LATER -- ME DUFUS; I MUST HAVE A MENTAL BLOCK CAUSE FOR SOME REASON I KEEP CALLING GENESIS BY GALAXY ? ? ? Can someone please hypnotize me into getting it correct ?
