And no offence taken!! I fully understand an individual choice on all levels., and I respect your point "I wouldn't choose to pull".

Barristers and corporations covering their asses have a BIG hand in convincing the general population this rig is not suited to tow...but some of that same target audience can't tell time on an analog clock, so they have to cover their ass.

My comment was NOT targeted toward you. Thanks for understanding!

I had just shy of 14k on my 2022 JLURD with no problems before it was stolen. I loved that jeep and I felt the engine was most definitely worth the upcharge. The only issue if you want to call it that is I noticed it sounded quite a bit louder when it got colder out and yes, I know that is common with diesel engines but this one sounded almost like it had an issue. I would still go with the diesel in my next one but that won't be an option in the 24s. I could easily get 27 on the highway and averaged 24 around town.

Just passed 39k over the weekend with no issues. Just finished my first oil change after getting my 3 Jeep Wave freebies. Gotta plan a little better when the dealership charged mt ov $70 for the filter with my employee discount....

24k on mine.
No problems aside from batteries replaced under warranty at 20k and I expect they'll need the same again in another couple of years. Which they said will also be under warranty. After that I'll research proper batteries.

Since the fuel pump recall I've been driving it less in favor of my backup car figuring I'd rather not send a bunch of debris into my engine if I can avoid it.

It's my third jeep and they've all been reliable, but this one is the best one by far improving acceleration and gas mileage. Very happy with it.

My fuel mileage is what I expected from the window sticker, about 20 mpg in town, about 23 mpg on highway, BUT highway speed makes a big difference. My best highway mpg was 29 mpg in the Florida Keys because there is a 45 mph speed limit on the entire Overseas Highway between Key Largo and Key West. My worst mpg was 16 mpg on I-10 in West Texas because there was an 80 mph speed limit with a 35 mph headwind that day. OffRoad, I expect about 10 mpg if I’m rock crawling and about 16 mpg when I’m overlanding. I get about 6000 miles on a tank of DEF. I usually get DEF from a truck stop pump.
