I keep saying I am going to measure my Wrangler and today was the day!
It’s actually bigger than I thought at the widest and longest points. The first time my husband and I saw the Traveler he said he thought it looks bigger because there’s no elevation changes down to the fenders like on my Jeep and things like Broncos. He was right.
I got paper and taped it by the tires, they stick out past the fenders, I have steel bumpers that have these two bump outs on the front so I went to the end of those and the very end of the tire on the back. Backed it out and measured between the papers.
I am honestly surprised how wide it is.
It’s 78-1/2 wide. I never would have guessed it was that wide. The Traveler is only about an inch and a half wider. It’s because of the elevation changes in my hood and fender, that’s absolutely why it looks skinnier.
My Jeep is 188-1/2 long so 18-1/2 longer for the Traveler. That’s not much. I have a third car garage and I thought there was no way I would fit my Traveler in that one door. I used to park the Jeep there with no problem and it actually bumps out about 33 inches longer on that side, so length would not be a problem on that side at all.
So this leads me to ask, can they make it so I can fold my mirrors when parking because if I can do that it will be much easier to get in that third garage. I have a 93 inch opening, so doable. Going slow. With parking sensors that will stop me if I get too close.
