Now evident on the Jeep configurator site are two new options:
Black vinyl floor covering for $995.00; and
Heavy duty vinyl seats for $1,695.00.
It's nice that Stellantis has decided to finally make available what was for many years the standard fitments for vehicles with what we might refer...
I was selected to test the Lasfit All-Weather floor mats, as originally announced here. My review follows.
---------------------
The mats were packed in a sturdy box, which provided reasonable protection against the rigors of shipping.
I decided to frame this review as a sort of comparison...
Concerning family, we split the difference during the holidays. My wife's family live in northwest-ish PA, so we visit them for Thanksgiving, where an early gift exchange also occurs. Christmas is spent with my people here in South Central.
Anyway, my sister-in-law tucked an Amazon gift card...
I recently had a good conversation, covering a variety of automotive-related subjects, with a retired mechanic who seemed to be pretty squared away.
Wanting to use him as a sounding board on the issue, I mentioned my long-term concerns regarding GDI-derived carbon build-up and, e.g...
I've been maintaining my vehicles, to include repairs and accessory installation, for 30+ years now.
Continuing this M.O. with my Wrangler, albeit on a modest scale thus far, has compelled to think about how much longer I can reliably slide around on a concrete floor, or an asphalt driveway...

For sale is a new-in-wrap Hike It X9 pedal controller. Model #HI-589.
This device installs inline between the vehicle's accelerator and the ECU, using OEM-style connectors for quick plug-and-play installation...
The Wrangler is surprisingly absent. I say that because I've two documented purchased offers (Carvana, Vroom) for my JLU that exceed the price that paid for it, new. I'm hardly the only forum member to have received such offers, too.

The price premium follows the percentage.

Our Wranglers can't tow a 5th wheel, but pulling a loaded motorcycle trailer should be well within the vehicle's wheelhouse. How do you roll when four wheels pulls two? (or three, as I sometimes do.)

Port-A-Chopper Dual motorcycle trailer.

This isn't strictly an inquiry about towing, so I'll park the thread here for the time being.
I've an almost-new Versahaul that I used just twice in conjunction with my now-sold truck. That vehicle had a 500 lb. tongue rating, which allowed me to safely carry a 350 lb-ish dual sport.
The Curt...
An inquiry inspired by this thread.
Consider the Bronco Sport, which is essentially an Escape with a body kit. Something that is accessible and relatively affordable when compared to the uparmored (stop laughing!) Bronco.
What say you as it concerns the prospects of a Wrangler "Sport" that...
Let's go back in time.
I think it's natural to look back on the choices we've made, and at least analyze them, if we're able to avoid the temptation to second guess things.
With that in mind, I do sometimes compare my JLU to the Ridgeline that preceded it. Today's trip down memory lane was...
...I stopped to peruse a bit of new inventory.
Welcome to a private showing of three vehicles, displayed here for the first time. Each is valued in its own way, not because of any inherent build quality, but because each captures in the market, illustrated on the window sticker, a frozen moment...
In the spirit of inverting this thread, still in progress, what do you believe just works on the JL-generation Wrangler?
The first thing that comes to mind for me is the dashboard aesthetic. The last one that looked correct, in my estimation, was the YJ-era dashboard. It looked completely...
I'll start.

Hopefully this remains just a repository for humble brags. I'm not interested in invoking yet...
A driver turned left in front of me this morning, despite my having the right of way. I applied the horn for a slightly longer interval than is my habit. At some point -- maybe after two seconds had elapsed -- the music on the radio was cut off and the Uconnect 3 screen display changed to one...
(No joy from Search results, so I'm starting a new thread.)
I've just noticed two wear points on the forward interior portion of my JLU's soft top. They are adjacent to the driver and passenger's heads. A bit of research seems to confirm these are wear points that occur as a consequence of...
Now that May is finally acting like May, I can make recurring trips with the soft windows removed and the top lowered. Previously, I'd sneak in an occasional drive with the top in the Sunrider position as conditions would allow.
I've accumulated enough miles to notice a consistent 1.x mpg...
With the latest government largesse now in hand, what Jeep-specific plans, if any, do you have for the $1,400.00?
This particular table has been on my Short List for a while now.
There are a good number of posts, and even threads, on this forum that are linked to owners seeking assistance with accessory installation. These posts and threads are composed specifically because neither the manufacturer nor the vendor (if applicable) included a well-written instruction...
