Interesting to see how the current plant is divided into North and South, and more importantly, JL and JT. From the outside I would have simply assumed it was all one line.
There must be a lot of similarities, that’s why they had both the master body in whites for JL and JT, but enough difference with the cab and bed on the JT to do it on a different line.
Because almost all of the audio was recorded through masks, some of the words were hard to make out. I just spent 2 days editing all the subtitles text and timings to make sure it was correct. Turn on CC if some if it is hard to understand. Thanks for watching.
I would like to go in there and punch the engineers in the face for the horrible engineering and poor reliability of Jeeps. My 2013 Wrangler JK is on its 3rd oil cooler, 2nd radiator, 2nd water pump, it needs two knock sensors replaced, I have replaced 3 O2 sensors, replaced a drive shaft joint, on its 2nd leak detection pump, replaced the throttle position sensor, and it is currently parked at home because the torque converter is starting to fail. And I actually baby the thing, rarely even taking it off-road and I drive only 4 miles to work. My wife's Toyota is 7 years older and I have only replaced the alternator and an O2 sensor on it. Jeep quality is HORRIBLE!!
@@TheJeepcast This is the first and only Jeep that I have ever owned so this has been my only experience with a Jeep. Seeing that I have had many of the same parts fail multiple times, it looks like the parts are either poorly manufactured or poorly designed. And I am using Mopar parts, not aftermarket parts. The oil cooler is known to fail on many Jeep. Toyota parts seem to never break. Jeep parts break over and over.
That was AWESOME!!! Been selling them for years and this is the first in depth look into the plant I've seen! Great job Gary's!!!! OIIIIIIIO
Thank you! Really appreciate your comment. We put a lot of work producing this.

such an awesome opportunity and the permission to share it! Thanks for sharing the experience with us, Garys'!
Thanks for watching. I still look back to both the Jeep factory and Bantam property as just unbelievable we were there. So grateful.
For a jeep enthusiast, this had to be an Awesome experience! Thanks for taking the time to record this. 👍🏼
it really was. I still lookback in disbelief that we got INTO the factory and interview with the current owner of the Bantam factory. Wow, just wow!
FYI, YJ production started at a Brampton, Ontario facility before moving to Toledo in 1992
Neat fact.

Your work perfecting the captions is much appreciated, especially for those of us who have a little trouble hearing to begin with.

Sorry you got a bad one, but certainly you gotta know your experience is not the norm.
