2021 JLU Sahara
Very excited to finally get my first Jeep after lurking here for almost a year. Picked up a 2021 JLU Sahara with around 33k miles on it, and just drove it from WI to IN then back.
Everything is stock for now. Planning to find some trails for fun once spring comes around.

It’s Dan. British Columbia Canada.
just traded my 2017 JK Sport into a 2024 Rubicon X 2 door.
It’ll be my daily driver, Ridiculous I know, I was looking for a fully loaded two door and this was the one I found.
I’ve got two other Jeeps for wheeling.
2005 TJ Unlimited with a small lift on 32 x 10.5 BFG KM3, mostly stock otherwise, but it’s been plenty capable, I’ve done nearly the entirety of Moab and a good portion of Telluride with the smallest jeep in the club, it’s just a great trail rig.
1992 Jeep YJ. 5.0 mustang motor. NP435 transmission. NP205 transfer cage. Ford 9” rear with a Detroit. High pinion 44 front with an ARB and 4.88 gears. 38.5x14.5 Super Swamper Sx. It’s loud obnoxious and a lot of fun.
Welcome to the Forum, from Cave Creek AZ.
Congrats on owning a Rubicon :like:

Hey everyone!

I just picked up a 2019 JLUR w/the manual trans. Sorry, no pics right now as its too darn cold out in my corner of Michigan, but its super clean and has less than 37k miles. It will be my daily driver, and I don't have any upgrade plans....... yet! I just couldn't tolerate the winter roads anymore in my FWD car, and I'd like to explore some of the state forest and whatnot.

So, as is the custom whenever I pick up something new, I find a related forum and learn all I can.

After years with Land Rover (Defender 1984, Discovery 2010), and a brief stop with Suzuki (Jimny 2019), I finally (at last?) made it to Jeep last spring with a Rubicon 4xe!
I’m here to follow your advice and to admire your mods and custom builds.

New member. Do not currently own a Jeep moving from Idaho Falls to the DFW area in the next couple of months and will need a second vehicle then. Likely will be a Gladiator.

Have owned a few Jeeps in that past looking to get back into them. 86 SJ, 91 YJ, 98 TJ, and the only vehicle I regret selling in over 40 years of vehicle ownership 01 XJ.

I'll be scouring the forums looking for info. Will mostly be a lurker even once I am back in the Jeep Family.

Welcome! There is lots of information available on this site for Gladiators which share numerous parts and design with the JL. There is also a dedicated Gladiator forum that is run by the same folks as this JL site.
