Jeep humor waiting room ( ** NO POLITICS ** )

I though diesel can handle towing better then gas. Why on the gladiator diesel has a lower tow rating then gas?

3.73 axle vs 4.10 is the reasoning I've heard. There's also the weight difference between the engines and the Max Gross Weight rating for the Gladiator as a whole doesn't change between engines I think.

With the Ram 1500 the 3.0 tows more than the 3.6.

I wouldn’t get a ram with a 3.6 V8 all the way. I’m also hearing by the time my wife lease goes back the V8 won’t be offered anymore in the grand Cherokee.

Did jeep lower their price on the gladiator? I been building it with all the options I want and it’s 62k compare to 65k I been getting a few month back.

I've ridden in a Ram 1500 with the 3.6 and it accelerated the truck pretty easily. Not a HEMI by a long shot but wouldn't be bad for daily driving and light duty use. Obviously better engines are available for regular towing.

I think the HEMI is going to be the Premium draw for the Wagoneer models now. I really don't know many details on the new GC/GCL that is supposed to come out. Dodge is shoving a Hellcat into the Durango now so you have that option for a V8 SUV of that size. lol

For my fat asses some are still sleeping on the west coast.

Depends on how far/long I have to go before starting to eat them. Fresh out of the fryer, McDonald's and Wendy's. But those (especially Wendy's) don't age well. Arby's and Five Guys age a little better and can be brought back with a few seconds in the microwave fairly well.

Burger King fries are just not that good no matter what.

Just had my follow up with the eye doctor. Before surgery my eye where at 20-30 now almost a month later I am at 20-20+ the reason for the + is bc I got 3 out 5 letter on the 20-15 line.

Not sure about that. I just went in and built the same thing I have now. Only $20 more base price for Rubicon. Only around $700 total more than the sticker on mine. It does show some consumer cash thing that reduced it by $1000. So I guess without that it would be $1700 more.

When they shove the hell cat motor into a Chrysler Pacifica or grand caravan then I’ll switch to a minivan.

I used to get a 3x3 with Animal Style Fries all of the time! I really can't eat like that anymore, lol!
