New to Jeep

[Deezul_JT]

Hello from Alexandria, VA.

My name is Sayed. Proud owner of a 2021 Sarge Green Rubicon JT with the 3.0 Ecodiesel. Let me just say I freakin love this thing so far! Glad to finally be a part of the Jeep family. Have always found Wranglers awesome, and when they came out with a 4 door Wrangler I knew I'd own a Jeep at some point for sure!

I'm a true car guy at heart and have owned a few toys. Acura Legend with a 3.5 swap, Lexus LS430, Lexus SC400, BMW M5 (F10), and currently a BMW X3M along side the Gladiator. I'm also currently building a rhd Toyota Soarer and doing a 1.5JZ swap (in my garage).

I bought the Gladiator new a week ago. I also went ahead and purchased the mopar 2" lift, 3/4" leveling kit, Ace Engineering rock sliders, 18" Black Rhino Armory wheels, a set of 35" Toyo Open Country AT3's, and a paint matched hard top. Currently wheels are on back order and unfortunately have given me time to think lol. I'll save the questions for another thread since this was just supposed to be show and tell lol. If you read all that, thank you ?.

Glad to be here ? ?

Welcome!

It isn't advertised anywhere, but Sarge Green is actually the most capable color for offroading

Where are you getting the paint matched hard top? I keep telling myself its not in my budget but I REALLY want one.

I did not know this! I'm glad I picked Sarge green in that case lol.

I ordered the top from the dealer at the time of purchase so it's coming directly from Jeep. It's ALWAYS in the budget if you want it bad enough ?.

Welcome Sayed. That is a sweet rig. Love the sarge color and soft top

Welcome… lots of nice goodies to put on the rig… just temper expectations of how well she drives vs all those vehicles you’ve had and she’ll keep you happy for the long run.

Well all I saw was the Toyota Soarer and the M5. Was waiting for the RHD Nissan Skyline with a 2.6REDTT in it. R32 of course. Nothing finer than Godzilla!

Thank you. I am IN LOVE with this thing already! I need to get this lift kit installed. The front end droop is driving me crazy lol. As for the other vehicles I came into this knowing and wanting a completely different experience and she delivers!

Haaa! I love my Soarer. Motor has been out quite some time. I need to get off mynlazy ass and finish the build. It was a blast to drive stock. I can't wait to see what the new setup will feel like!

Maaan, I wish I could swing an R33. Even the R32's are crazy expensive now. 50-70k for a decent one. Amazing cars, but with the issues they're plagued with No thanks. I'd rather dump the money into anything with a JZ in it.
