To be honest, we originally wanted a JLU and there are some decent deals out there on them but nowhere near as good as they are for the Gladiator. For us, a truck made more sense anyway so it all worked out.
I love my JT with the diesel. I want to replace our Renegade with a JLU maybe a 4Xe. My wife does a lot of short drives so the fuel mileage isn't even that great in the Renegade. I drive the JT 70+ miles per day to work and then out to the range in BC.

Yeah, not seeing any great deals on them but I wish you the best of luck finding one if you can.

As mentioned earlier, Cindy and I returned Pippi back to stock and that means, we kept the steel Rubicon front bumper and our old Gladiator wheels and Nitto Ridge Grappler tires. Needless to say, both are the very first mods that we decided to make on our new Gladiator and here are a few shots of what it looks like now.

Nice little touch! ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿผ
Thanks! Wheels were exactly the same as what came on the Gladiator and the tires were the same size too. This allowed us to sell the new wheels and Falken Wildpeak AT's with just 40 miles on them as being essentially new. And, they sold in a hurry! We'll most likely change out the bumper to something better but only after we're lifted and running bigger tires.

Lookin good! When I get a JT I think itโ€™d be hard to give up that stock steel bumper. It looks real clean.
 
Iโ€™m excited to see what you guys do with this one. The trophy truck yโ€™all built out of the other one is insanely rad soโ€ฆ. The bar has been set pretty high ๐Ÿ˜œ
