  1. Quality of Backup Camera

    I couldn't disagree more with this. Back up cameras were made mandatory for safety reasons. These sh*tty quality cameras Jeep is putting in don't make that goal feasible, especially at night. In addition, the top of the line 392 should have a crystal clear camera, given that people are...
  2. Update on oil leak after oil filter housing and timing chain cover replaced

    Was the wrangler going to be your DD or just your fun/weekend vehicle with occasional trips to work? If the former, I would get something else-- think about a lexus GX460 with the new black line package, or wait on the new 4runner for 2023 with the new turbo 2.5 engine. Or hell, just lease a...
  3. Update on oil leak after oil filter housing and timing chain cover replaced

    I envy you. I've loved cars forever but haven't learned how to work on them. I think if you own a vehicle that isn't know for its reliability, it's an invaluable skill set-- if nothing else, to at least call BS when a dealer service department can't give you a straight answer. I hope...
  4. Update on oil leak after oil filter housing and timing chain cover replaced

    Yes, you do. And i suffer from the exact same affliction, lol. I'm just as OCD my man.
  5. Update on oil leak after oil filter housing and timing chain cover replaced

    Fellow oncologist here. This is my perspective: Our jobs are difficult in a way that few people can comprehend. Having a fun car --one you can put the top down and drive home after a rough day of having hospice talks and difficult conversations-- is something that should be our escape. It...

    And the supply chain issue strikes again.

    Falken makes a C load 275 AT3. Great tire from what I hear
  8. 392XR vs Shelby GT 500

    It's a no brainer-- the shelby. I recently sold my 2019 Shelby GT350..........I miss that car almost every day
  9. Spoke to the dealer about 2022 models...........

    I looked on autotrader yesterday: there are only 23-24 total in the country on the lot, and the ones out west are stupidly priced. But I do wonder what the actual demand for them will be when the dust settles in 18-24 months, even at sticker.
  10. Spoke to the dealer about 2022 models...........

    Yes, I was referring solely to the Wrangler.
  11. Spoke to the dealer about 2022 models...........

    I couldn't agree more with this. We are headed for some troubled times given the rapid rise of home values, new cars, and COCG as a whole.
  12. Spoke to the dealer about 2022 models...........

    Yeah, I'm starting to think the same--that it will be more than 2%. But then again, people are already in an uproar over how expensive it's gotten to get a Rubicon. I guess we will see soon enough (mid Nov is what I was told). I will need to decide in the next month whether to place my...
  13. Spoke to the dealer about 2022 models...........

    The 392 isn't going anywhere. I just wanted to post about the 5.7 b/c I've read a handful of posts where people were discussing rumors about the 5.7 being made an option for 2022. That isn't happening.
  14. Spoke to the dealer about 2022 models...........

    What about it? You mean is it going to be dc'd? Hells no
  15. There is no perfect engine

    I owned a 2019 M2 in a 6MT for a year and got rid of it. I bought the hype, such as guys like Jeremy Clarkson calling it the best M car since the E46 and couldn't wait to get it. The car just didn't do it for me for a variety of reasons (not crazy about the chassis, body roll, and just lack of...
  16. Spoke to the dealer about 2022 models...........

    .........Specifically asked if he could confirm whether the 5.7 would be offered, like many have speculated. After a couple of days, he got back to me and said with certainty that Jeep will not offer the 5.7 in any of the models for '22. Take that fwiw. It also seems like we can expect the...
  17. There is no perfect engine

    At the risk of an unpopular take, I actually felt the Eco diesel did have turbo lag on the rubicon. Some of it was likely being at altitude plus the added weight........ I will say that that I didn't really notice it on the Sahara, which again, could be from the weight difference...
  18. Would you order a new Jeep Now?

    I wasn't even concerned about quality control issues............but after reading this thread, I am. Perhaps it's best to hold off on ordering anything right now given all these supply chain constraints. While I would love more power in my DD, I've got a reliable vehicle that I can keep for at...
  19. HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH, BUT NEED SOME ADVICE ON WHICH JL IS RIGHT FOR ME

    thanks for that.............. and it's definitely something I'm cognizant of. I actually haven't come across many threads where people have talked about tunes to their 2.0 engines. That left me with the impression that factory backed tunes may not be out there as of yet, at least not for...
  20. HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH, BUT NEED SOME ADVICE ON WHICH JL IS RIGHT FOR ME

    lol........understood and thanks. I didn't mean it would be better in snow: rather, I would be ok in snow b/c of its full time 4wd platform (coupled with the KO2's). And actually, my mind isn't made up yet. I really liked the way the the Sahara altitude with eco diesel drove-- more so than...
