I liked Tremors from the get go just for having a Jeep pickup in it - only got better from there.

Jeep Gladiator Movies that used Jeep Pickups ! 117445305_10219513476048455_5638542201016457169_o


Seemed appropriate since I was in Wakita (with my JK) last week while driving the TransAmerica Trail ...

And even got to see Dorothy (though the museum wasn't open) ...

Putting the video series together now. Here is the teaser, should anyone be interested (with my JK and a friend's FJ, no JT this trip) ...

Mark, why are you using the Wrangler instead of the Gladiator for your excurions? (I've been a follower of your well thought out posts and overlanding stuff for a while, from the JK forums.)

The JK is set up much better for overlanding. While I've made some improvements to the JT, it doesn't have a fridge, storage drawers and shelves, etc. I hope to use it (indeed, have already) on some runs, but when I need a vehicle to actually live out of, the Wrangler serves best. For now.

Fair enough. (c: It's good to have a backup while you're buliding the new rig. (c: Your videos and forum posts were a large part of set my mind against the notion that you have to go out and buy a Rubicon just to own a Jeep, that JKU proved to plenty capable with a 3.8L and non-Rubicon. I am trading in my JKU to get my JT Max Tow, maintaining that same philosophy.

I'm curious about them sliders I see in one of your pics. Have you created a build thread anywhere to talk about what you've done so far or as you go?

And I was thinking of that movie while I drove home at ludricous speed to stay ahead of our derecho storm with tree parts and street signs flying across in front of me. I was thinking - ok, when does the cow come flying by?
Appropriate I was in the JT at the time. Other vehicles were blown off the road a few miles north and east of us.

I have been making studio chats on the last video of each trip series that update viewers on mods. The JT rock sliders are from Ace Engineering. Check the most recent several playlists on my YT front page for more info on the build.
