    2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited 3.0L EcoDiesel

    19.9 mpg city driving with a very heavy foot. Just too much fun to feel that punch when you floor it. No opportunity to take a road trip yet

    ACELA 6X6 WITH SLRV EXPEDITION BOX NEW BUILD

    My Cummins diesel generator won’t start if it is much below freezing and above a few thousand feet. So I am thinking the 5 kw charger is a good idea

    Pass-through really necessary?

    The pass thru on my u500 was a $10k option for my GXV body. It is a crawl through. The rubber connection that allows flexion between the chassis and the camper has torn three times in 8 years due to aggressive off roading. It costs $400 to fix. It comes in handy but if I had it to do over I...

    towing with a global expedition vehicle

    So I just towed a tractor on a flatbed from Illinois to Texas with my U500. Vehicle is rated 33k GVWR. It was loaded to the tune of 23k plus towed about 8500 k. I drove 60 mph at 1900 rpm all the way. I was pleasantly surprised to get just over 7 mpg from my nontowing 8.5. A U500 GXV towing a...

    Pandemic

    So in a pandemic is a large custom camper like Earthroamer, GXV,or earthcruiser not the perfect RV? The ability to live off grid with your own water supply and no need to hook up and get off road, makes them far superior to a conventional Rv, or even small off road RV with no water storage...

    2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited 3.0L EcoDiesel

    At least you had a choice, and yes you shoulda got a Hemi. If wrangler came with a Hemi option from the factory it would be a no brainer. But I cursed the torque in my old Rubicon. I have dealt with the unique problems and increased maintenance cost that come with Diesel engines in my two...

    towing with a global expedition vehicle

    Planning to tow a tractor on a flatbed (about8k lb) to my daughter’s place south of Fort Worth on my way to Big Bend in 3 weeks. It will be interesting to see what that does to the mileage

    towing with a global expedition vehicle

    So I flat towed my Rubicon once with my rig. My mileage went from 8.5 mpg to 4.5 mpg. Didn’t do it again.

    2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited 3.0L EcoDiesel

    So 6 weeks after ordering my Rubicon diesel, I get an update status that says the Jeep is built but waiting for an EGR cooler that is back ordered from the supplier. So I am wondering if those coolers are sourced from China or Italy. If so I guess that makes its completion dependent on The...

    2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited 3.0L EcoDiesel

    Roving1 makes good arguments. But I can’t help myself. I am addicted to torque. Passed the anemically powered 09 Rubicon on to my son. I’m ordering the diesel Rubicon as soon as my wife can settle on the color(the only option she gets to choose)

    Can’t wait. Hoping a diesel in sarge green is available in the Rubicon by December as some articles have speculated. Hope the tow rating is better, too

    1993 2450

    Not my G wagon, belongs to a friend. I was just at Terry Lee Enterprises getting portals checked, new water pump, etc on my u500. You can go to the Terry Lee Enterprises website and get contact info. Rob Pickering can send lots of pictures of the 2450. Rob has several 2450’s at his place, and...
