They'll have to take my Gladiator out of my cold dead hands!
That may happen sooner than you think. Beware!! There is extreme danger of FROST BITE with the Gladiator!

I got into my truck thinking all was well because I had used the remote start and of course it was near zero, the seat heat would be on, the heated wheel would be warmed and I'd have the warm fuzzy feeling all was well, I'd push the button, belt up, put it in gear and take off.
Well, I took off and my fingers hit the metal spoke area of the steering wheel and luckily my fingers weren't a bit wet or they'd have stuck, frozen to the wheel! It was COLD!
Beware! That steering wheel is dangerous! They need to warn you.

But are they cold because you cant get your HVAC system to work.......? :giggle:
My JT's HVAC works perfectly. Exactly like it should, in all modes. Wonder what it would take to put a Gladiator system in my Javelin?

Can’t believe y’all are still on this thread, taking up pagesssss, somehow trying to convince yourselves your right and only your perspective is what matters. Pretty hilarious. My JT has been at the dealer almost two weeks now trying to figure out why the HVAC works as sporadic as it does.

But hey, my dealer also says there are no steering issues on the JTs, that those with steering complaints have misaligned expectations! My JT steers perfectly in every direction, in every mode, in all terrain, every movement precise and accurate... All those complaining about bad steering need to get some pacifiers I guess. Maybe y’all should recommend Jeep to have pacifiers with each JT?

I wonder if their machine has a spec for that? Or is that set at the factory and welded?

Crap - mine has a problem, then. Mine doesn't. It doesn't steer worth a dang up, or down. Goes ok left, right, etc. - even backwards, but can't get it to go up or down. Watched a guy with a Cessna 172 get it into the air - looked easy enough, tried giving it gas pulling back on the wheel, nope, didn't do it. Rats. Wonder what good the altimeter is, then?

Ah just relax and enjoy what's left of life a bit. According to the media in this country we are all doomed and will get sick and die in a few months a very horrible death anyway if you believe 'em at all so may as well enjoy what's left.
They are always right.

So, if my memory serves, you wanted us to show exact pages telling you how something works, and if we didn’t we were completely liars... Can you please show documentation that shows the dealer doesn’t know why you have sporadic HVAC?

BTW, how many people posted for you to take it to the dealer to get it fixed? Glad at least you finally figured that part out. ;-)

Nerdy internet bullies, that is a classic.

Thanks

JC

Just trying to be consistent based on your posts. Calling me a bully, is just a way to tell me to shut up. I don’t. :CWL:
