    Barn Door for JK factory hardtops

    This is killer! Might have to go on a shopping spree when they hit their website.

    Is it a sign that I'm just growing up or getting boring?? Soon to be Wrangler-less...

    Well, this looks promising. Might be the replacement for my wife’s JK (she is wanting a larger SUV). Looks like there will be a 4xe version as well (to go along with my future 4xe Gladiator!)...

    Land Rover ideas for Jeeps

    Thanks for that; I’ve been wanting to do that for my garage toolbox, and have thought how nice it could be for gear storage in a Jeep (I hate rattling gear while driving). I knew these products were out there, but your post has encouraged me to get off my tookus and organize my toolbox, at least!

    4xe

    Good idea; throw the kid, dog and spouse in the bed and have a peaceful road trip!

    Setting up Jeep Gladiator for overlanding. Power storage question.

    I wouldn’t use a propane heater all night; just long enough to take the chill out of the air until I fail asleep in a quality down sleeping bag. Then on again in the morning to entice me back out of the ‘bag, get dressed and ready to make coffee. A vented diesel heater would be pure luxury and...

    Setting up Jeep Gladiator for overlanding. Power storage question.

    This is the one @Cesna Jeeper is trying to link to; it seems to work on my iPad: Edit: weird, it keeps defaulting to media no matter how I edit the code. Screenshot:

    Setting up Jeep Gladiator for overlanding. Power storage question.

    Check out Elevate Expeditions on YouTube; he’s putting a solar panel under a Front Runner rack that he can slide out at camp. As of this post, he’s only mocked it up, but you can follow along as he works it out. He’s done some other cool power and lighting setups on the Gladiator, so his channel...

    Look at it as a positive as it will at the very least eliminate some financial stress; we do what we need to do to take care of our family. The memories are more important than the vehicle! Will follow along with your Pat travels!

    Barn Door for JK factory hardtops

    Actually, it's pi * r^2 but in the case of a 4" diameter pipe, it is the same thing so your calculations are correct. ;) @pith helmet mentioned a rubbery taste; will heated up water smell the same do you think? I can see using one of these as a camp shower, but not if I still smell funky...

    Is it a sign that I'm just growing up or getting boring?? Soon to be Wrangler-less...

    I believe you are correct, but I suspect it will have the same look, just shorter. Maybe I'll prefer it with those proportions. ?‍♂️

    Congrats on the new WK2, @Septu! If I’m honest with myself, a GC would probably serve me well for most of my wheeling adventures too and they are still quite capable. My little JKR (2-door) has taken me across Canada a couple of times and more room and better highway manners would have been...

    Barn Door for JK factory hardtops

    Clever, as always; I like this version, especially the ability to drive away from camp and leave it standing as a “campsite reservation” if one has a RTT.

    Gladiator to get Wrangler 4xe Plug-in Hybrid Drivetrain

    Ah, I see! I think a Gladiator 4xe is perfect for my needs; my commute is short enough to use full EV, and the range with the 2.0T makes it a good long-distance vehicle. I've read a lot of good things from 2.0T Wrangler owners about how well it performs off road. I admit I balked at a 4-banger...

    How would you outfit this custom LJ?

    That looks awesome! (y)

    Understanding Wrangler/Gladiator drivetrains.

    Yes, sorry; we don’t have the non-S Sport here in Canada, so I wasn’t aware the Max Tow was available on that model. Many people go with the Max Tow option for exactly the reason you suggest; I would do that if I didn’t want some of the other “nice to have” options.
