  1. Car wash damage to JL

    Find a different place. Have washed our 2dr JL hardtop plenty of times locally. Zero problems.
  2. Potential New Wrangler Owner. Any advice/opinions on what should get?

    Expand your search to neighboring large City's. Demand could be different. Be sure your area has the best deals. Skip the 4xe.
  3. Wrangler JL Hood Locks

    Bolt hood latch install was easy. Bought the rivet gun from Amazon.
  4. What mods does a Ram 2500 need to haul a Jeep?

    Check the door jamb of the vehicle for gross vehicle weight. Probably close to 1800lbs +/-. Now deduct weight of fuel, people, gear and truck modifications. Whatever remains is how much you can throw in the bed. Well short of carrying any SWB Jeep. If looking at a trailer. Look for something...
  5. 2021 Rubicon Diesel Help!

    Stock Alternators are not designed to fully charge a dead battery. If the battery is ok, trickle charge it. However, with the battery being 4yrs old it's probably toast. When you have a fully charged battery check for amperage draw. Plenty of YouTube videos to explain it. Unknown what is...
  6. Rival Reviewed: 2025 4Runner First Drive Reviews Are In

    Paid $42k out the door for my 2018 Trd off-road premium. Now base TRD off-road starts at $49k. That seems well above rate of inflation. Toyota failed the new Tundra and Tacoma launch. Have to wonder what the screwed up with this time. Also lost the manual transfer case.
  7. Best Jeep dealer in California?

    Are California residents allowed to shop out of state? Check Peterson Jeep and Dave Smith both in Idaho.
  8. Diesel cold start struggle

    This might help? Diesel additive comparison.
  9. Jeep Values - Massive Decline

    Thinking about a JK Rubicon. Not much more gets a JL Rubicon. Seems Gladiators have worse depreciation than Wranglers.
  10. When to trade-in for a new JL?

    Rav4 daily driver.
  11. 18 year-old drives his Jeep to 49 states in 64 days and 43,000 miles

    43,000 miles in a softop is impressive. Is the JL softop quiet? My ears hurt thinking about it. I think it's great he was fortunate enought to accomplish his goals.
  12. Patiently wait for 3.6L or secure the 2.0L?

    Test drive both as they currently sit on dealer lots. Be sure it's the right engine for you. I prefer the V6.
  13. If this is true, this 35% cut on Stellantis MSRP's is going to be interesting...

    Tesla has reduced pricing while screwing their existing customers. Precedent already set. Used JK, JL and JT's pricing would see an immediate correction.
  14. Buddy traded his jeep XR and took a bit of a hit.

    Thought about buying a JK Rubicon. JL Rubicons are about $5k more. Prices have come way down. Given Stellantis problems wondering if the market will continue to fall.
  15. Aftermarket hood lock?

    Installed the Bolt on our 2021 JL Sport. Bought the inserts and tool on Amazon. Install was easy. Does it's job.
  16. New (to Me) Jeep Needs New Tires

    Check out Discounttire.com for comparisons of wet tire performance. On our 4runner ended up with Firestone tires. They had the best Wet tire performance in AT in the size I was looking at.
  17. Is engine braking bad?

    Hot brakes can liquify. Once that happens they crystallize when they cool and harden. Requiring replacement of everything if you don't crash.
  18. Driving a Rubicon in the Snow

    Lower tire pressure can help to a point. Are you looking at road or trail use in snow? Slowing down helps. Avoid using lockers on street ice. Lockers on street ice can cause drifting. Linked video tests different tire pressure on acceleration and braking.
  19. Engine selection for reliability- 3.6/I4turbo/ecodiesel

    Own the 3.6 non etorque. Have rented the 4xe and 2l turbo. 3.6 auto is more smooth in traffic. 4xe was glitchy. 2l auto starts to spin up, then traffic stops. Creating a clunky feeling.
