Man that's kind of :fuckyeah: and : :disappoint: at the same time, when everyone has the same vehicle. Hard to stand out... but you work at FCA, so that makes sense.

These guys just happened to be parked together when I was looking for a spot. Pretty neat. There aren't a ton of Gladiators...and very few if any Orange ones like mine.

I get comments CONSTANTLY when driving around. People loving the Orange, or just the look overall. It still seems to stand out well among the masses.

Now, the JL Wagen...you can see exact replicas of those regularly. That thing barely stands out around here, but :tits: loves it so :aintcare:

I did drive it a bit this weekend, and the 2.0T felt like :stig: compared to my 3.6 Gladiator. My dad is taking delivery of his 2-door this week, that thing should feel :plaid: by comparison.

The gray looks awesome. Certainly my #2 or #3 choice. I saw a Hydro blue engineering truck that rivals Sting Gray as my runner-up color. Punk'n Orange is far and away my favorite :doe: Zero color ragerts.

I too would have gone for a soft top if I lived where you do...and if my wife wasn't going to divorce me over it. She HATES the way the soft top looks when "open".

I have the freedom panels off my truck daily...they're really awesome. Will probably pick up a sunrider for hard top in the spring.

jl wagen is epic they are sort of rare. I am a bit surprised, but I don't see THAT many JLs out here and let alone JTs.

Considering that they are the best (or 2nd best) selling jeep... I was expecting more but this may be unique to Cali, as we're @$4 a gallon.
When is the JLU getting fixed? Curious about your experience in the heartland... our Service here is terribad ...

Out here, JL Wagens are everywhere...especially in white. Ours is a bit unique with the updated wheels, towing, and LSD rear, but you can't immediately see most of those when they're driving around.

Closest apt I could get for the JL is Friday at the dealer I pass every day. The dealer we bought it from is a few miles out of the way for me.

I don't have high hopes. My experiences with FCA :dillerman: so far has not been great. I just hope they can fix the heated seat with minimal issue. If it becomes a problem, that thing is going to be :plac: 'd before the snow flies. Heated items are :tits: #1 priority in a vehicle.

I'm taking it in. When something like this happens she goes to straight :pout: "fix it NOW" mode. :rolleyes:

ALL Wranglers are part of "Jeep Wave" which includes a guaranteed loaner for warranty work. So at least she'll have something to roll in while it's getting fixed.

The good news is that the feature is full blown broken. No intermittent "could not replicate" :bs: to worry about. I think it's as simple as a pinched wire shorting out or something somewhere, but I don't have the time to dig into it right now.

That's nice ! Curious to see how they will handle it. Seems like it is pretty easy.. as opposed to this...
I wonder :wtf: happened to these guys... also it seemed like they "fixed" everything with software which is quite scary... wonder what triggered the fault.

I've only noticed 2 JTs, but the JLs are everywhere in the Bay Area. Maybe Max isn't seeing them because when you are driving one yourself and get the waves you notice them more. ?? :iono:

They are out there but not as frequent as I’d expect. I see 15/20 model 3s to 1 JL. And they sell around the same volume ...

Same volume but all the :amir: around here need a model 3 and the concentration is much higher here than anywhere else. I see maybe 50 Tesla's on my 150 mile round trip commute.

Tesla's can't be sold in MI, so they're really few and far between here. People have to buy them 3 hours away in Cleveland and drive them to near empty on the way home. There's a number of people in my hood that are 100% Tesla (Model S, 3, X in the same garage), but I'm in a liberal leaning area.

I see FAR more :jeep: things from Wranglers to Gladiators. They're everywhere here, but that's likely in large part due to HQ being here.

We've been carpooling in the Gladiator the past few days, which has perfectly working heated seats.

I give her the choice every morning if she wants to ride with me to work or not. She choses to ride with me in the truck, but doesn't mention it. The heated seat works, and that's all she cares about.

I want to drive my truck because the lease is unlimited miles with $0 deductible insurance. If something happens, I want it to be to my truck and not her JL Wagen. Keeping the miles low on hers only helps its value in the future. PLUS more miles on mine decreases the sale price if I want to buy it at the end. Win/win...I want to take my truck everywhere for the year.

We have a couple of Tesla stores here in Charlotte, but I still see about 20 JL per one Tesla :thisisfine:

Teslas are about as common as C5s here.
