I had grand plans to upgrade my Sport when I got it, but decided to wait 3 months to see what I may want. I took it up some steep mountain roads, ones that most SUVs would have major issues doing and did it with no real problems. I also got to enjoy how a stock Wrangler drove on the road. After the three months, I realized that the only thing I needed was better AT tires to meet my needs.

A "basic" Jeep is way more awesome than most other vehicles. I bought a '21 JLU sahara, and while it's great having almost all the bells and whistles, the expense of the payments really limits my ability to customize it and mod it out. If I could do it over again, I'd but a lower trim for a lower monthly payment, and slowly and cheaply mod it out over time to meet my needs. Enjoy your new car!

Just got my gladiator home today!!! Been waiting a long time to have a Jeep. 22 years. And made up my mind 2 years ago and your videos have been a huge help and motivation along the way. Thank you. Finally in the club!

You will love your new Gladiator! I don't have one, but I do have a 2012 Unlimited Wrangler Rubicon I've had since two months before taking delivery of it. (Yes, my Ruby was a factory order.) I dearly love my Jeep. This 2012 was my first Jeep. It was nine years since taking delivery of it this past April. The only problem I've had with my Rubicon was the factory navigation system, Jeep's mid-level offering in 2012, failed while Ruby was still under warranty. To this day there are no oil leaks under my Wrangler. You made a great choice. I believe you will grow happier with your new Gladiator the longer you've owned it.

Why buy an 'expensive' new Jeep! We have a 2015 2 dr sport manual.. people are always whining about how impossible it is to sleep inside. I'm 6-2 and I do. I figured out how to make the passenger seat fold flat to quickly make into a 6-4 bed. Two can sleep inside, the driver's side is shorter but if you're half cool and not an amazon, it's doable. I pack my ct90 on the trailer hitch, it's a great package with storage under. 👍👍

Old Jeeper, but new subscriber here and loving Pippi.

Even I was surprised at the Sport's capabilities and have been 100% satisfied with it's on- and off-road performance. Just goes to show that you can have a ton of Jeep fun without having to spend a fortune.

I’ve done more in a stock truck with mildly aggressive tires than many folks will ever do with their modded out rigs. First priority with my new JLU was a winch and winch bumper. Second was a second set of wheels/tires for snow and mud. Third was armor underneath. I may lift it an inch or so front and 3/4” rear to make up for the extra weight, but that’s it. It will take me anywhere I need to go and spending many tens of thousands to gain a few percent more locations is not for me. No shade on those who want to make their rigs what they want - it’s your money, you do you. But few people actually need it, and only a very few will truly push a rig to its limits.

My TJ was a Sport that ended up with a 4” lift and 35’s. Always said if I bought another one I would just buy a Rubicon. And now I wheel a 2014 2 door JK Rubicon on 295’s and couldn’t be happier.

I have a 2010 Rav4 Sport V6, and have never owned a Jeep, yet, after seeing this video and one more about this new base model, I have subscribed. For the past year, I have schemed, planned, created Excel spreadsheets, and saved for a 4Runner TRD Off Road. And I haven't given up on it. But my gosh, you guys have turned my head with this video, and others you've created. You seem very honest, obviously Jeep-knowledgeable, and genuine. You very likely know the 4Runner has a better reliability record. I'm curious what it is about Jeeps that, for you, justifies buying so many of them? What can you share about the JL reliability? Thanks again - eyes opened - entertained - informed - thankful.

Thank you, we're happy to hear you enjoy our videos. I should note that I think Toyota's are great vehicles and used to own a 4Runner way back in the day. Part of the reason why I'm a Jeep guy is because I love the history of them. Also, there's a bit of nostalgia as well as it was my dad got me into them. However, the biggest reason why I love Jeeps or maybe specifically, the Wrangler, it's that they're so incredibly capable right out of the box. They have a solid axles, don't take a whole lot to get them running much bigger tires and maybe most importantly, they have an enormous amount of aftermarket support to do just about anything. As far as reliability goes, what I can tell you is that of the last 8 new Jeeps that I've bought and 4 that I still own, only 1 has had issues. That was a 2012 JKUR and it was soon after the 3.6L came out. Aside from that, ALL my other Jeeps have been problem free.

Drove my new 2024 JL Sport 4 door from Boise to Reno on one tank of gas (Meridian Costco, 91 octane) with 95 miles of range left. Today, made the reverse trip again on one tank (Reno Costco) and arrived in Meridian with 65 mile range left. According to the onboard computer, 27 mpg to Reno and 26 mpg to Meridian. I have yet to do any significant off-roading, other than Boise Ridge Road, which it handled just fine. I think the only mod I will do is a set of AT tires, and will stick to either the stock size (245/70r17) or maybe just a tad larger (255/75r17). My wife drives a 2 door Rubicon and I was initially envious enough to consider a lift. After watching this video, as well as the one of Pippi going off-road, in addition to my experience thus far, I will pass on the lift and any consideration of 33s.

Awesome :)

I've got a loaded out 4XE. But I'd love to get behind the wheel of an old CJ5, sometime. There's just something about an old shifter vibrating in your hand because it's literally connected to the transmission. And a steering wheel that's connected to a steering rack that's connected to the wheel assembly that just connected with a tree root and you can tell? Even better.

They are as awesome and fun as you're imagining :)

Old dirt roads and light trails is all I will see 8n off-roading. With how much I work and only free on weekends (sometimes) plus my jeep being a daily driver I won't have time for the hard ore stuff. Maybe snow with my 34 in all-terrian tires but that's all. Just don't wanna look like a mall crawler. I have the rock lights (added for free with my 49 in, 22in, light bars and 4 spot lights)

I am to one of the few people that has kept my 2020 2dr Rubicon hard top v6 manual stock except for a winch, I use it off road I just do the green and blue trails , happy with it as it is . The Rubicon is very capable stock why mess a good thing that is what I say.

Awesome!

Yeah that opening shot with the rumbling V-8. Knew it wasn’t the JL 2-door.

LOL - gotta love Moby 😎

Any Wrangler trim can perform light to moderate off-roading in stock form (granted you're okay possibly causing some body damage on more difficult trails). Only reason to make major suspension modifications and buy enormous tires is if you're big into hard core off roading, or are okay with paying the extra money simply for the aesthetic. Most people who buy or lease Jeeps will rarely or never need to make major body modifications to meet their needs.

Yup, you're absolutely right.

Good day, Enjoy your straight talk about Jeep life and modifications. Glad you do not use any profanity or have to beep out the videos. Very refreshing to watch. Help, I drowning with so many options for Jeep. I have a 2019 Sport Wrangler 2 door like your new ride, but with the eight speed automatic. Like to upgrade my tire size but keep the stock axles. I'm only planning to do trail driving to get back in the country for hiking and camping no hard rock climbing. Any new recommendations from all your years of off road adventures? Stay in the 35" size or go up to the new 38" Nitto's ? Maybe change to a coil over suspension system to handle the larger tires and ride. Need your wise view about this.

Personally, I would stick with 35's even if you don't do any hard rock crawling and mainly because anything bigger will leave your Jeep feeling under powered. Sure, you can regear but the ratio you'd want to would leave you with a very small pinion and that's just to bring you back to stock performance.

Love ❤️ the new shoes 👟
