Can you explain how the trail can is attached to the factory grill & what mods you had to do to keep it in place? From the outside it looks like it is part of the factory honeycomb inserts and not just clipped into place. I want to change my grill out to a black one and hoping for a simple fix to make the trail cam still work.

As long as the new grille has the slots that the honeycomb attaches with you will be good to go. The mount for the cam is molded in to the honeycomb. I just trimmed it out to remove as much as possible while still being able to hold the camera.

Huguenot Park just south of Amelia Island. Packed sand for most of the drive but found some deeper stuff and not a beat was skipped. Good times . Good times

It is integrated with the honeycomb. Its just the center panel. You can take it out and move it to another grille in a bout 5 mins

Other half of this load’s already in the barn... gotta get it in and stacked, before the snow starts! Another big snow dump coming in overnight, and all day tomorrow!
Love this Jeep Truck! I can back down our hill, right up to my barn through the deepest snow all winter! ❤;{

Looks like the bed depth is perfectly sized for stacking bales. How many bales fit in the bed? I used to use a bale for a back seat in my CJ5 - gave it that nice hayloft scent!

Turned sideways I can get 4 bales tailgate to cab, that stand right at bed-rail height (flat straight across)!
Then I can stack two layers of six bales each (could do three layers), laying flat, two rows of three each, meeting in the center of the truck bed, and extending 6” or so over the side rails. That’s 4 on first layer, 6 on second and third (possibly fourth) layer. Then I usually stack 4 more flat, two and two, (turned perpendicular to the last layer), down the center of the stack, locking all the other bales in place. 20 per average load, 26 if I really want to go for it! JTLE handles like a dream... doesn’t even know it has a load.❤;{

Looks like we got our consolation prize for playing the “Special” Launch Edition marketing game. While Jeep couldnt deliver our JT in a timely manner, and dealer wanted too much for it, we let them keep it. Got the wooden sword today! Whoo hooo...

Did you cancel your LE and buy a JL? And still got the sword? Too funny!

Think the whole sword thing is about as screwed up as the "launch" edition was.

I had originally ordered mine using our OR house address we use as a vacation rental (thinking I'd avoid a bunch of taxes over CA). Then during the 6 month wait for Jeep to deliver the "launch" edition, a few CA neighbors started getting hit with tickets for driving around with out of state plates. So when I picked mine up, decided to register it in CA.

A couple of days ago the property manager of the OR house sends me a photo of a Jeep Gladiator box (i.e. "the sword") that showed up at the house up there. Jeep never even checked who ultimately bought the vehicle or where it was registered...
