Nice to know there are new JTDs still on the lot. Wish there were a few JL diesels too, but the ones I saw on the lot 6-8-10 months ago didn't have the options I wanted. i wanted a few specific ones.
2.0T vs 3.0D : 2.0 isn't a bad motor at all, bar the crap engine note on acceleration. It has...
A year on since I wrote this post and I'm still longingly looking at an EcoD equipped Wrangler.
If i see a Jeep with the EcoD badge at a parking lot, I am more than likely walking around....."stiff".
Now that the diesels are long gone into the sunset, what are my options to trade in/swap...
Jeepers,
I will need to do a cross-country roadtrip, relocating back to Michigan. I have a route planned and I've never really touched upon the areas in the route below, so I'd like some advise from the community.
Trip duration: 2.5 days
Day 1: Start driving up from New Braunfels, TX -->...
I had to update the app and it did not work.
I renewed my Sirius XM Guardian subscription and it worked.
Now we know how these subscriptions work when they are about to expire....
It's annoying but I love my Jeep more, so i took the cost hit for Sirius Guardian for a few months.
From what I have read: Off-road, Toyo seems to be a slightly superior choice to BFG.
As an allrounder, BFG has the edge over others. Ride quality, off-road ability, snow and hydroplaning, life of tire.
Hey Jeepers,
I switched from the Uconnect app to the Jeep app a couple months ago.
I was able to refresh the location of my Jeep, remote lock/unlock/start it up on Uconnect., but I get a Failed notication when I try doing the same thing on the Jeep app.
Per the Jeep's app, the location stops...
I am on my 2nd Jeep.
I will hang on to the one I currently drive for as long as possible.
My reasons for not considering a new Jeep for the foreseeable future:
Price hike trend, even though the JL mid-cycle refresh offers a few extra goodies
I missed the bus by not ordering the diesel and...
I own a 2.0 gasser JL. Not an EcoD JL owner but I have been hooked onto the diesel Jeep bandwagon ever since I test drove one.
Kicking myself for not ordering mine with the diesel, because I cannot find one on the lot with the options I want.
Just do it, if the price is right and it has the...

Hi! Can you please share the link where you purchased the JT grill inserts?
I live in TX too and I saw 218-220 on flat roads, 55-60 mph, on a 105 F day.
The fan whooshes like a jet engine with the AC on and I would like to have a little more margin with cooling, with the JT grill inserts.
You need not worry too much.
The 4xe isn't a RAV4 Prime that puts out 80 mpg or whatever as a hybrid vehicle. And people don't buy Jeeps with fuel economy as the primary objective.
Your argument may be applicable on an ICE RAV4 or Accord or Camry or......... Not a Jeep Wrangler
I second what...
Why did I buy my Wrangler?
Off-road worthy vehicle + Jeep fan.
Well, a Wrangler fan.
Not a fan of the run-of-the-mill Cherokee and Compass
Wanted a vehicle that will take me anywhere I want it to. I am moderately adventurous and exploring hiking trails, alpine lakes, scenic spots, etc. that...
i assume you drove to the test drive in your gas JL.
How did you like the A-B-A comparison of the two Jeeps? A being your gas Jeep and B, the one you test drove?
I approached a couple of dealers around me. Seems they can't sell a new vehicle that has an open recall for which parts are unavailable.
I am tempted to trade in for a diesel JL, but I am unable to find one that is similarly equipped to the one I currently have in terms of convenience features.
If you've not test driven the diesel yet, please do so before you plan on purchasing it.
I think you will hooked on to the seamless power delivery and smoothness of it and never go back to gas again.
As far as maintenance and regen goes, others have commented to it here.
Is the diesel...
