I am gone for a day and I find a nonstop barrage of personal attacks. I always try to remain respectful and refrain from personally attacking anyone on this forum. Clearly I overstayed my visit on this forum. Have a good day y'all.

Yet Jeep sales are down 45% since 2018... So far Jeep 2024 sales are running another 20% below last year.

Stellantis saw the most price increases, at more than double the rate of inflation. Hyundai is second, due to entering larger, higher-priced segments with Palisade, all-new EVs, and growing the Genesis luxury brand. GM, Ford, Toyota, Honda, Subaru, VW grew prices at half the rate of...

Yes, our priorities and expectations change with age. But so do with prices. Our expectations of a Jeep Wrangler with, say, an MSRP $28,000 are not the same as that with an MSRP of $60,000. Jeep raised prices by 50% in five years, the most of any automaker. But standard equipment didn't go...

Well they sure look like they are having fun.

Of course they didn't. Why would the French government have a private company's strategic outcome in mind? All they care is that no Frenchmen --and Frenchwomen-- lose their job. Well, today a grossly overpaid Frenchman* is now unemployed. *Tavares is originally Portuguese, but he has lived...

Ha! Now, try to have them call you back when your Jeep is in for service. You'll get total radio silence...

I too am disenchanted with Jeep, Stellantis and its dealers. I looked into getting the new Land Cruiser. Initially, MSRP was rumored to start around $50,000. But when Toyota finally introduced Land Cruiser, starting MSRP had become $58,000. By the time I added leather, navi, sunroof, I was...

Stellantis needs to exist from the standpoint that FIAT, PSA and Chrysler, individually, did not have the know-how and resources to develop the electrified powertrains that are being required to offer around the world. The problem is that while Stellantis has been able to develope these new...

True that!

Toyota, Honda, Subaru, Mazda are all having a banner year. GM, Ford and Hyundai/Kia are not doing too bad. Tesla's fortunes have been fluctuating quarter to quarter. Stellantis and Nissan are the only two automakers that are consistently struggling. And in both cases, it is 100%...

The man was an empty suit. He was always getting caught by surprise and took responsibility for nothing. Wonder how many millions it took to get him to sign that resignation letter. FIAT heir John Elkann will be in charge until a replacement is found...

The main reason dealers treat customers like shit, is because the automakers treat their dealers like shit. As the old saying goes: shit rolls down hill. I don't want to buy my vehicles directly from Stellantis. Given how they screw everyone (employees, suppliers, dealers), Stellantis would...

I like the color and the wheels. That is about it.

Tavares hid from investors the many problems N.A. had accumulated under FCA. He made Stellantis post "record profits" in 2023 so he could claim that insane bonus and, when all the problems CDJR had came to light, he then claimed that he didn't know anything about it and fired everyone in N.A...

A "radio program"...? What is that? 😫

It doubled my horsepower and tripled my fuel economy! 😫

I owned a 2018 Sahara with a Mopar lift: the dealer-installed lift developed extreme vagueness and a strong pull to the right. I swapped the OE stabilizer with a Fox 2.0 - it helped a little with the vagueness but the pull persisted. I wasn't until --another-- dealer did the steering box TSB...

Yeah. Pretty much everything here in Western Washington is behind locked gates, too. The problem is that people go into the woods and do stupid stuff, break things, dump all kinds of crap, start fires, etc. One time I saw an ice cream freezer dumped on a steep ravine, 15 miles up a logging...

I like it a lot. Sometimes I miss the maneuverability of Wrangler 2-door, that is it. Other than that, I like Gladiator better.
