Bad Things About the Jeep Gladiator after 6 Months of Ownership - Still Love It - But NOT Perfect
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 жов 2024
- The Gladiator is as perfect a Jeep as you can find, but it is not perfect. I wanted to share some of the reasons it didn't hit the mark and how they can improve it as there are quite a few items. I still love the Jeep JT Gladiator Rubicon and would buy it again in a heartbeat... but I do feel there are some things that are not acceptable for a vehicle that is this expensive. I want to reiterate, i would buy this thing again and you can watch the video on why I love this Jeep Gladiator as it will be released soon. If you are asking yourself, "Should I buy a Jeep Gladiator?" or "is the Jeep Gladiator worth it?" I hope this video helps you get to a firm decision! Best of luck!

Here is that Antenna in case you wanted it, again, you will need to grind it or use sand paper to make the base smaller on the antenna, otherwise it won't fit, but once you do, i like the look and the car wash experience much better though I don't use my radio and if i did, this would not be a good antenna to have as it barely does anything: amzn.to/3enr86v

You obviously bought the wrong car for the purpose that you intended.
Yeah he did. Absolutely
That's exactly what I was thinking.
You have some pretty high expectations from a Jeep.. But given the price tag, I can understand where you're coming from. Absolutely love mine.. But I've owned jeeps for the past 15 years. Also went from a 95 YJ to a 2020 JT.. So this is luxury to me 😄
I'm thankful for your complaining! The only Jeep I've ever owned was Cherokee and it was 1989 model. I've given up on the Rubicon model and just spec'ed out a Sport S model with the features I wanted from the factory instead. I'm just waiting a little longer in case the price drops when Ford announces the Bronco lineup. I'd rather have the pickup bed though. Thanks for your negative words on the matter! Everyone wants some polished review rather than true real world reviews. Thank you!
You are welcome! But I will say, if you do any off-roading you will not regret getting the Rubicon as it blows the sport and overland out of the water... but if you really just going to tow and use it as a daily driver then the Sport S is going to be fantastic! I would imagine the Rubicon will likely hold its value a bit more but at the same time you're paying more for it so I'm not sure that's worth much...
Nathan, did you ever end up buying one?
So it's obvious that you don't know how the tonneau cover works. Once you roll it all the way out then the hooks go in, you have to press down on the top of the cover, pressing down on the bar that runs across the last bar in the back. That will lock it. Give a good whack. I learned that at the dealership. You can not lift mine up like your's is doing after you lock it
My Bluetooth in my JL works fine. Bring yours to the dealer. It’s under warranty. The bed cover, is a bed cover. Get a hard cover if you want security. Get a 18” antenna. You will still have reception. Jeep windscreens break. Your new one is going to break as well. That is why you have glass coverage. You never will be able to track straight with the new JL/JT steering gear. The support bracket from Polyperformance really helps. It will reinforce the sector shaft of the steering box. Wind noise is stupid loud on the JL/JT. You need to drop your windscreen and make sure the foam installed isn’t folded over on itself. Then adjust the hinges. Noise will improve drastically.
Buys JEEP gladiator
Says:
It's too loud on the inside
It's too slow
It rides like a jeep
Doesn't get good gas mileage
I don't need a 4 wheel drive
It's a little high to step into
Not aerodynamic enough
I like my wife's car better
This just made me so much happier I didn't get the anoying saftey package 😂
Had mine 9 months and love it.
thanks for taking the time to review/film - never considered windshield replacement before - I've gone through a few w/ my Nissan
thanks for sharing the price - I was going to ask that on your previous video
honest review
I did my best... and I am posting the reasons why I love this thing later today. The good far outweighs the bad, BUT, there are some bad so they need to be mentioned. I think I may do a window sticker walkthrough so you can see exactly what this model goes for and I can break down each add-on and whether or not it is something you will use.... you think that would help?
@@BustMonk I'd watch it. Have decided the Gladiator is out of my budget and my needs (cross country towing rv)....wouldn't be comfortable.
it is a Jeep. Most of these complaints are or should be a known thing because it is a convertible jeep.
I own a 2021 Gladiator Mojave no issues on the blue tooth radio as long as the windows are closed. As far as going over 60mph it has touchy steering but doesn't wonder.
I purchased a Launch Edition over a year ago. Some of the issues you mentioned; I have seen. My phone blue tooth has worked perfectly from day one. I use it as a daily driver and tow my old stock 85 CJ when I want to trail ride; I just haven't the nerf to ding the JT up yet. The Gladiator is the only vehicle that I have owned, that the cool factor has not worn off...
Yea... I am starting to hear this a lot. I will make an update vid once I have the first oil change and I will have them look into the mic. Seems like half of them out there have this issue and half don't. Thanks for the comment!
hey, fold down the windshield and you will notice the sensor for the cruise control, is mounted to the windshield frame not the glass, you should also have a cover for it IF you were to even drive with the frame down. the glass has a small defroster grid to keep it clear in winter.
Wow I didn't know that! I haven't folded it down and likely wouldn't u less I was on a beach or something. I will take off doors and top, but the windshield is more of a "hmm, that's cool I can do that" haha. Not sure it's practical for me. Thanks so much for the comment!
The Mojave straight line tracks, at higher speeds, better than the Rubicon.
You bought a Jeep man. You should maybe look at a Colorado or a Canyon. Straight axle vehicles drive like real offroad trucks. Its why most people drive them. Most people dont buy them so they look cute at the mall.
Thanks for sharing the experience, really love the car and I’m about to buy one but was worrying about the steering the the wind noise. Again thanks for sharing 👍
I agree about the steering and the noise on the hwy.
I recommend test driving one, I have a jk jeep wrangler and neither of those bother me. I will definitely be buying a jeep for my next vehicle.
I would get your microphone checked out. I drive around with the top off and talk on mine. It works perfectly. Also, there is a steering fix from FCA, they replace the steering box. Mine tracks great on the freeway. But it is a solid front axle, so expect more hunting than an IFS.
the highway steering is due to the front solid axle
I agree with the antenna, I noticed it on the wrangler. But I don't take my new cars to drive thru washes for the first few years. I get them hand washed. You are right about new people joining the Jeep family need to be aware of what they are buying. Because the most expensive doesn't mean the best vehicle for YOU. There are different axle options and off-road packages with tire options that will affect the vehicle. Any modification will sacrifice something out of the vehicle. I think what you are trying to summarize is most expensive doesn't mean the best. I do love this truck though. Matches my other Jeeps.
Jeep owner complaints since 1941.
Bluetooth in 1941 was pretty crap lets be honest
@@joelfrancis5391 IIIIII don't know, mine worked pretty well.
I have a high altitude 2021 and it’s very quiet and doesn’t pull it’s actually a very smooth ride. I have owned many Chevy trucks over 60k and this feels just as good as them so I think it’s due to the different tires and springs in the rubicon
Hey! I love your videos man and it's cool to see your truck because I've got the same make and color. I thought I was the only one that thought that the AC doesnt get that cold (my wife has a Lexus and that even has AC in the driver and passenger sides) I get it too, it is a Jeep...what I ended up doing is tinting the windows, it gets cooler and makes it look even more aggressive. But looking forward to more videos man! Keep it up.
Lol oh yah, about the window taking hits...the day we purchased it, a rock flew and cracked our windshield. Lol
Ha, we have the same luck! Mine waited until 2500 miles... ugh... Thanks again, love the comments! Take care!
Jot the exact same spec aside from being a launch edition.. color and everything... no complaints yet at all...
Many complaints on the Windshield cracking all the time and the steering being loose and don't forget the death steering wobble. For the price it could have been better.
There is a dealer fix. Cast iron steering box swap. Jeep does it for free. The aluminum one is junk
My 21 has the new metal gear box.
Steering is tight!! And I also have no issues with blue tooth phone calls. People hear me just fine. I have to say that I really like my sport s that I bought. With only 1300 miles on so far!! If your thinking about buying one? 👍
On my tonneau cover I used ratchet straps on the tailgate end, and hooked around the upper metal frame and connected to the cargo hooks on each end. Had people trying to break into cars in my neighborhood. Its now secure that way.
The heating system seems to be designed to have the freedom panels off to work properly. Otherwise it is 30 C or too cold. No incremental adjustment. Had it in for service. Just a Jeep thing.
When you get your windshield installed get gorilla film installed to prevent cracking. Or a new tougher windshield has come out, but is $699 US. Mopar sells gorilla glass windshields but more expensive than regular one..
Great vid. Super informative. Thanks for posting. Exactly what potential buyers need to hear. Then investigate on their own. 60gs isn't chump change. Super important to get as many opinions....then see for yourself.....what matters.. makes sense to you.
OK, I'm a Jeep owner for years and currently own a '21 Jeep truck. The audio stuff.....eh. Not a biggy, but understandable, (I'm still on a flipper). Tonneau cover?, this is unacceptable. I was surprised to discover this design flaw. The antenna, well I always hand wash, so not an issue. BTW, none of the shorties work well. The windshield, back off son. I do not tailgate. I understand that when in traffic vehicles bunch up and stones get thrown, but back off. BTW, when you do, be ready to have someone up your tailpipe.The steering, dude. It's called a live axle. This type of suspension works great off road, but on pavement, not so much. It requires a lot of driver input. (Officer I'm not drunk, It's a Jeep). Jeep tried to get the best of both worlds.They primarily market these trucks as "trail rated", especially the Rubicons... (what pea brained said). All things considered, you put out a great and honest review man. I dig my JTR heaps and will never lift it. I ordered it the way I wanted it. It's way more capable than youtube vids give it credit for being. Knowledge and common sense overcome the need for a lift............................Cheers.....G
As to the noise, did you get the hard top headliner??
New video title: Man buys Jeep, is surprised to find Jeep is a Jeep.
Thank you. Very useful review. I am thinking of leasing one instead of buying.
I love when people say it “needs” this or that. The rubicon needs nothing. If you can’t do it, you took the wrong line. It’s called the rubicon for a reason.
Dude, I just took my new-to-me JT Gladiator (2020 with 4300 mi, bought used, fully stock) on a 2200 mile road trip and it was comfortable as can be. And I came from owning a 2019 Ram Rebel which was quite arguably the most comfortable roadtrip vehicle I've ever owned. I mean is it a little more noisy? Sure. But I've owned way loud vehicles than this. Way more uncomfortable vehicles than this. And yet, this thing is a one of a kind off-road, mid-sized truck that has solid axles front and rear, can be lifted with ease relative to trucks with IFS, and can take it's doors and top off just like the wranglers can. Is $60k too much to ask for all this? Maybe, if a luxury truck is all you were looking for. But this is unique and that's why they think they can charge what they do. (BTW I only paid $49k for mine used so I'm not feeling like I spent too much on it as some other people might). Great review btw. You explained your gripes with it, clearly and backed it up. I do appreciate that. I just have to opine. Lol. I'm glad you said you would still buy it, even knowing what you do now.
I have no problems using my phone while I'm driving down the road. Mine is fairly quiet. I got a bed cover after market and is secured.
I just want to go on record to say.. the reason Jeep doesn’t fix these issues (noise/seats/windshield).. is because guys like this will line up and pay exorbitant prices regardless. So, business is business. Why would I spend money to fix issues with my product when plenty of people (guys who want a rugged, “masculine” vehicle) will give me full price for my product as is (without the effort and/or additional cost)? It’s a no brainer. If everyone (guys who buy Jeeps) would take a stand and refuse to buy any Jeep due to these issues, you’d see them resolved quickly. But, unfortunately, that will never happen. I mean, come on.. you pay $50-60K, and you can’t even make a successful phone call? The windshield cracks that easily? The seats aren’t comfortable? The steering doesn’t feel solid? How ridiculous.
By the way.. thanks for this video. This made me finally realize that Jeep isn’t for me. You’re right.. if you off-road frequently, this is a good choice. But, you made some pretty good points concerning some valid issues with a vehicle that is completely overpriced, even at base model level. I was debating between this and a used 2015 Tacoma, since that’s the most reliable year. Looks like I’ll have to go with the Tacoma. I’ll save a ton of money and have a vehicle I can count on for years to come. Not so sure I can say the same about a Jeep.
Dude these issues aren't really issues to the jeep community. It really just comes with the territory. Not for you because "it's a jeep thing".. Really the only way to describe it. If you need something that rides like a Cadillac... Buy a Cadillac.
BTW, the wrangler holds its value better than any other car on the planet even more than your Tacoma.
The steering floating issue is due to the recirculating ball setup..... Most vehicles are rack and pinion and that setup gives u that direct steering feeling.
JT Rubi owner. My truck also wandered at the beginning, adjusted the steering box and it now tracks straight and true just like any other vehicle. I guess I'm lucky in that I don't have any wind noise issues unless I put the Bestop half soft top on it. I'm on the phone a lot as I drive and I've never had any issues. You may want to take it to the dealer if it's too loud as there may be a warantee-able issue there. This is my first Jeep coming from a Toyota and Lexus background, also have a Ram Power Wagon but I'm fine with the product and it's price point. With all of my vehicles its usually my first choice even over my Land Cruiser or GSF. Good luck.
solarinsocal jt rubi owner....Ive done new track bar , falcon stabilizer, and synergy bracket and it still likes to wander. Grated I’m at 3 inch with the mopar lift and 37. And done multiple alignment etc.... can you give me the details as to what you did. Having said that i get compliments on this truck everyday
@@rbonacic www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/loose-steering-fixed.21823/
Check this out. Hopefully this will solve your steering issue. Simple fix but do not over tighten.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Valuable information.
Good info. Have you already gotten the updated steering box fix or does that apply to yours?
Have you looked into aftermarket headliner upgrades? It would help with both sound and temperature issues.
Easy fix for the tonneau security strap it from inside then close the gate. There is a steering tech bulletin. For free they’ll swap the aluminum steering box for an iron one. Fixes that issue. Contact your dealer. Google JL/JT steering box bulletin.
Thanks for the honest review.
With regard to the first problem you described, did your Gladiator come with the hardtop headliner? It's an option listed on the Jeep builder website that's supposed to reduce road noise.
Yep, I have it. Unfortunately it's a nice idea... But does nothing or close to nothing for noise. Looks nice though!
I hate to tell you this but they are ripping you off on that windshield. Go to a local window guy it might be cheaper. I drive a semi truck, and I have a big camera for lane departure, and adaptive cruise. To have my windshield replaced, $250, and the guy comes to me, just shop around. I hope you find a better deal.
Driving anything with a straight front axle will be different than independent front suspension. Imagine how many vehicles are bought, and the first thing they get is a VHF two way radio antenna, longer than what you took off, and they will have a long antenna for lifetime of the vehicle. The noise thing, ok I have to agree with that. Better insulation package needs to be an option on the solid tops, especially for north America 🥶 yup yup yup!
good review, my friend has to take his in for the A/C because it won't blow cold until the lowest setting, also his blue tooth speaker doesn't work, and he has notice little glitches here & there but seem to correct themselves usually before it is seen by a dealership to ge tit fixed, the steering problem he fixed you can find after market steering stabilizer bracket,, there not cheap,, but he said that he did notice a difference, as far as keeping the launch edition stock it will help in resale value, besides with all the system BS going on, many dealerships are tracking after market add ons & denying warranties once they bring them in, so we advise anyone that needs the warranty to not violate the conditions of the warranty, stay strong!
Mid sized trucks, jeeps, etc will always track off on the highways. The full size traffic, semis, etc make depressions on the highway. The track width isn’t as wide on a mid size truck, or Jeep. So you will always have to fight staying in a groove or another, while the other side isn’t in the normal groove.
I’ve had lifted trucks for 29 years, Rangers, Titans, F-350’s. So pay attention to the grooves on the highways you travel.
I've had conversations with no top on at 65 miles an hour on the phone and the other side could hear me and understand what I'm saying, yes some wind noise but was all over all readable
There is gorilla class for our windows. Plus buy a bug deflector. It help reflect therocks. And get steersmarts for you brace, drag link. It will make it drive better. I did this to both my jeeps and they drive better and I don't have a cracked windshield. And put sound Denton materials in it.
Mojave rides better with its suspension. Having a sunrider top no problem with phone ?
I went to dealership to buy rubicon JT and left with Mojave after driving both! Mojave is game changer with suspension setup especially with bad roads we have in Minnesota
They are going to say you are a complainer... but it's a great vid! All you are doing is telling people to buy the right vehicle.
My suburban windshield was the same issue. once it cracked with adaptive cruise control & lane assist, it has to be done at the dealer or a windshield shop that is experienced
Haha! Antenna was the very 1st thing I ordered. Synergy sells a sector shaft brace that really helps with the steering play and in lots of cases corrects it completely.
This is what the fuck im talking about. REAL, HONEST, REVIEW. Thank you, good sir
VERY NICE JEEP truck! Thanks for the review
I had the same wind noise issue when using the hands free phone with my JL. My outside windshield bolts were extremely loose. I tightened them and it made a huge improvement with the wind noise. I also put a little foam around the microphones which are in the panel above the rear view mirror. Both reduced the noise about 95%.
You are not lucky with the steering wheel, 90% of theGladiators are Ok, you have just bad luck with it. Let it check at the dealership
!!!!
You actually complained about the soft tonneau cover. Dude, you can cut it with a knife anyway. It isn't meant for security. It's meant to keep your stuff dry
In certain areas, i couldn't have a soft cover, hence my thought on that, but to each his own! If i lived in a quiet suburb with no theft crime, hell yes i would have a softcover! they are great.
It sounds like you want to love it to justify the 60,000 dollar price tag.
Get the insulation. I have no issues with gladiator or wrangler with linking up or listening to the phone thru the Jeep.
You're missing the headliner for dampening the sound and keeping the inside temp at where you want it to be. Also, did you opt for the $95 Gorilla Glass upgrade to the windshield?
Yeah I'll just go with an F-150. Thanks for the info.
You bought the wrong truck. Time to get a F250 diesel King Ranch long bed. Jeeps are not meant to be a work vehicle. I can’t understand why people spend $65k on a Rubicon Model then swap suspension components, change lockers.
We have the same truck, about the steering wheel and the noise, it’s the size of the wheels and wrangler based interior construction. You sacrifice these for performance.
Yeah, it just always feels like it's windy outside when you are on the highway. Sort of blows you around though there isn't any wind haha. Thanks for the comment!
Those are good points you mentioned but I guess it just sounded like a lot of complaints instead of "know what you are buying" Every vehicle is a compromise so to get a Gladiator it's more on the off road spectrum of the scale than comfortable get around town side of the scale. You have other jeeps so you should have better incite than those who don't or have never experienced it. The Gladiator hits exactly what it's supposed to do.
I knew what I was getting into and most people probably know these things but these are missed that could be made better if they want to stay on top of the off-road market. Other makers are now creating off road vehicles and they hit some of these misses. I mean, why would this truck not be a turbo? Makes no sense to me... It would help fuel economy a lot and deliver the power everyone wants off-road. Just a lot of dumb things about this truck, but the truck is better than most.
Im custom ordering mine soon. Sport S max tow, Alpine audio, bedliner, hardtop. It is overpriced and only could get 5 percent off msrp because it's built to order.
You are going to love it! It's like buying a Wrangler and a Tacoma or other mid sized truck and having both. Haha. Can't beat it! Enjoy!
Crazy truth here! I have the same wind noise issues in my convertible and on my motorcycle! I can't figure out why!!
Haha, that's great.
Wow a soft cover that’s not lockable? Just cut it . Never buy a launch edition but your clearly disappointed . Bought a rubicon edition and love it and did not pay anything near 60,000 dollars . You got played! Bad .
Never said I hated it... Actually live it and I'd spend it again and will use all the extra features too. Loving that adaptive cruise! Watch the video on why it's amazing... I'm just sharing my experience. if that means I got played and shouldn't have a Jeep then so be it. I love my Jeep and support Jeep all the way but I'm also going to be honest and tell you how I truly feel. They could do better... Still nothing on the market like it and better than anything on the market.
I have the same problem with the call features...is frustrating 😑. I also changed the antenna for the same reason and ended up with regret because of reception...so.. I re-installed the factory antenna.
Boy did you hit the nail on the head. I traded in my '16 pickup on a new '17 JK unlimited, then traded in the Jeep on a new Colorado because I missed my pickup. Now I'm thinking of trading in the truck for a Gladiator, cause I miss my jeep. I think that makes me the perfect candidate for the Gladiator. One of my complaints with my JK was it was a little rough as a daily driver after a couple of years. The noise, hard to talk on the Bluetooth, it wasn't the best vehicle for long trips, etc. but man do I love having a jeep. I was hoping the '20 Gladiator was a little more quiet and comfortable than the '17 JK, but maybe it isn't. I haven't had the chance to test drive one yet. I will just probably go for the Sport S, can't afford the other ones. Thanks for your comments.
Is this your FIRST JEEP?? Sounds like Gladiator needs to be CHECK at the DEALERSHIP to check the Alignment and the Bluetooth! The Hard Top does NEED the Sound Dampening Headliner that will help with your NOISE Issues! YOU can put 35 inch tires without a lift on the Rubicon but a 2 inch lift will let you go to 37 but if you are talking 4 inch lift you are heading to 40 inch tires which means NEW Axles plus a TOTAL Upgrade of your Suspension SYSTEM! I am not familiar with the Rubicon Launch?? is that a package for your region or something your Dealership put together?
I just purchased a 2020 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Hemi V8 in February but my wife want to use it as her car so her Liberty is going to her niece and I am waiting for the Mojave Gladiator to come out so I can test drive and compare it to the Rubicon Gladiator and we will be picking from one of those 2 models, I think the Mojave is better suited for the Stuff here in FL!
Get the hothead liners, they cut down on the noise and echo by quite a bit
Knew that was SD when I saw the smoke stack in the coast in Carlsbad.
Filmed off Canon!
@@BustMonk What trail(s) was that? Looks fun, would like to try it some time.
Good video but I think you should have bought a power wagon, samd elec locking diffs, same elec disconnect front sway bar, comes with a front winch optional, is a 6.4 Hemi 2500 chassis rig.
Would have been better for your work and would have had more power as well as be quieter.
Unless you wanted the smaller platform with the removable tops and doors.
Wow I had a tonuea cover for 10 years on my ford ranger, it locked at the very end it didn’t lock and then flap over like that one (if you know what I’m trying to say). You couldn’t get in that thing any other way other than taking a knife to it
Crazy right? I like it when I need to access and I'm lazy but hate that I can't trust it if i have golf clubs in there...
CombustionMonkey right your not protected...I eventually upgraded to a hard cover after 10 years my seals went and it leaked pretty bad, but the roll up cover I had was just as good as any hard cover
I’ve had my eye on one of these (despite the emptiness of my wallet). The biggest disappointment to me about one of these things is that there’s no diesel option. With Cummins’ relationship with Chrysler and the amount of people swapping 4bt’s into jeeps, you’d think they’d be all about it. Could be that the disparity between diesel and gas prices and the fact that newer production diesels require so much more EPA equipment. I just prefer a diesel...
Couldn't agree more! I would be so happy if they just throw a turbo option in there for this V6... that would be a night and day difference and would catch this engine up with the others in the market like the ecoboost.
Where is that sandy off-road area at?
Hahahaha wind noise unacceptable in a Jeep. 😂 has a Heep for six years. I’m back in a Taco. Get used to the phrase.....it’s just a Jeep thing.
Sweet opening drone shot
Good review
Wranglers/gladiators are 100% overpriced. Jeep sells their other models are much lower margins, because they know people spend ludicrous amounts of money on the Wranglers/Gladiators. Shout out to everyone who loves their Jeeps, but I could never spend $60,000 of my own money on these. The value just isn’t there for me.
Dude would have shat his pants driving a JK on the interstate
I just got a 2020 Jeep Gladiator at 500 Miles the radio broke the Jeep said they will replace it for free of course Uconnect radio is trash not a happy camper 😤
Got my sport s for 35k with 42 miles on it got 37s and king coilovers conversation not even at 40k yet...
Highly recommend going this route 60 k fuck that fuck the adaptive cruise control fuck the auxiliary buttons an allat bs build it
Totally agree
steering issue is rubicon issue. people have also had stabilizers installed to fix it. www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/loose-steering-fixed.21823/
ive got a sport s ordered for the towing capabilities. agree about the price, but theres alot there, both mechanical and function. take it to the dealer to have them check out the hvac.
Disagree....I love my 2022 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon..and it will never see MUD probably...It's a JEEP....money is only money.
How expensive is the insurance for it??
Nothing crazy at all.... About 950 per year and we have a good ins brand with higher than state requirements specs...
@@BustMonk Thank you for answering. No one else would. So thanks.
Way overpriced, it's a novelty. Wonder why the factory tonneau doesn't even look like it fits.
GET ADD ON CRYSTAL CLEAR ON WINDSHEILD TO HELP MAKE STRONGER
Your insurance covers cracked windshields for nothing.
Tacoma look better
What're the locations of 9:40 and 10:40 ?
Sounds like you most certainly bought the wrong vehicle
a little overpriced is an understatement.
Jajaja I have the same jeep and is very noisy but soon I signed papers i can do nothing but I want to keep it I have to buy a sport sv to go longer distance
You can get the steering issue fixed with an aftermarket stabilization bracket. Also think someone is trying to rip you off with the windshield as we’ve always paid around $250 Canadian for ours...
How does it do off road when your pulling a trailer down the trail?
Shut up then.
Wranglers and Gladiators are overpriced. Old technology and cheap manufactured parts.
YOU SOUND TO NEGATIVE FOR FEATURES YOU GOT FROM FACTORY WHICH IS VERY DIFFICULT TO GET ON MANUFACTURES MIDSIZE TRUCK
This has to be one of the most overpriced vehicles on the market, even for a Jeep.
Yeah maybe the most expensive version with every option checked.
Does anyone run this channel ???? Answer questions at all ??!!
