Trading the Gladiator in for Gen-5 4Runner

I can see your point… of those Mojaves that want to be Rubicons. So few stick to its actual intended purpose, but hey… I personally find crawling boring.

i need to encode more video....truck was brand new. 80mph that same stretch is smoooth. Truck just needs a real engine.

That was in the JLUR. The Mojave has seen the speed limiter in the dirt. More power would just get it there quicker, but it would be nice.

When I got my Mojave JT my choice was between it and a red Rubicon JT with the exact same extras. I went with the Mojave because I liked the ride better and preferred Sarge Green to another red jeep. Adding a front locker and a sway bar disconnect if I decide I need it isn't that hard really.

I chose the Mojave because of the ride, the Fox shocks and the slight lift. I knew I wanted to just run 37" KO2's out of the box with no suspension upgrades.

Recommend Apex AutoLYNX. Worth every penny. I feel like the Rubicon setup violates the KISS engineering principle. Don't need a Tazer to keep unlocked or unlock in 2wd either with Apex. I often go 50mph down washboard roads unlocked.

Damn! You guys ran him off before he even posted a picture of the new 4runner. Do you think he really traded?

I bet he traded. The Gladiator is not worth going round and round with. No vehicle is.

I heard that they rust quite easily. I guess they are going through their learning



Thanks, going with the Offroad Premium.

But who creates a thread, then argues with everyone for a week, and never posts a picture of the new vehicle?

You know what they look like. Not the prettiest vehicle.

My son has a 2022 4runner. It's basically a minivan.

They need 33's at a minimum to look good.

One would think by now if they have been on the board for any length of time, anybody that posts a "I am leaving for brand X" thread is gonna get hazed.
