Hello all,
New to the forum. My fiancée is looking to jump ship from Toyota to Jeep, but don’t worry, I’ll still have my Tundra to tow her when the Jeep breaks.
Jokes aside we sold her 4runner, she misses having a truck, and wants a Gladiator now.
Would appreciate some input and advice from those in the know! I have years of Yota knowledge but honestly very green when it comes to Jeep and solid axle.
So far we’re shopping for a Sport S or Willys.
She wants a diesel for the fuel economy advantage but question 1: is it really as good as advertised? They’re harder to come by and a premium price. Hoping the diesel will push 35s better than the gas motor to keep the mpg higher but if that isn’t real world then we’ll focus our efforts on the gas model.
Will be looking at the Mopar 2” lift with Fox 2.5 to give a little lift to clear some 35”rubber. Unless there’s a better recommendation from y’all.
We’re still on the hunt for the right JT and I’ll share pics once we’ve found it. If anyone has tips, tricks, or leads on one in Sarge Green send em’ my way please and thank you.
I’m looking forward to searching, reading, learning, and meeting y’all!
For fun: my Tundra and her (now sold) 4Runner
