I did it by removing the driver side handle bar (2x10mm bolts), pry the speaker cover out (to cleanly remove the handle bar) and there is a channel down into the foot well. Use a fishing line to pull the cable from the hole between the windshield and speaker, and bolt back the handle bar & place...
IMO, it is the high interest rates causing this artificial depreciation in value. Of course nothing is permanent and once the feds start cutting interest rates (provided inflation is in control), things will start changing (probably by end of the year).
3.6L is reliable but second best.
Best is 3.0L Ecodiesel but not reliable. But its unreliability is not the engine per se ub just that fuel pump component.
Yep. This also could be another reason.

Yep, that is exactly how it behaved on mine. Except, mine did every 750 miles or so. So it is based on engine hours I guess if we never exceed 80% STM. If you do more highway, your distance since last regen would be higher than someone who does less.
822F is DPF temperature. That 822F seems high because there was a regen going on - diesel fuel injected into the exhaust to burn the soot accumulated in DPF. Otherwise it would be 100-200F lower. Passive regen also occurs when DPF gets hot (personal observation - at above 500F).
DPF temps also...
On my picture of Scangauge 2, 822F is the DPF temperature. STM or soot mass in DPF is 75%. TRB or Turbo temperature is 1014F. Turbo temperature is actually temperature of Exhaust Gas Temp 1 sensor reading which is the closest to how you gauge the turbo temp. When I shut down the Jeep, I used to...
Not familiar with Scangauge 3 but in Scangauge 2:
STM is for soot level in the DPF.
You can also set an X-Gauge for history of regens (TNR) - that is, how many regens it had since birth.

My observation using Scangauge with Ecodiesel JT and JL which I had for a year each. Since I have the same route and approximately same miles every week, and mostly highway, the soot level never reached 80%. So it could be either programmed to do every certain amount of miles or it calculated...
You would have had regen multiple times. Even if your soot level never reaches 80%, Ecodiesel automatically does active regeneration every 750 miles or so. Those active regens happen silently unless it missed many regens and soot exceeds danger levels.
Passive regen - happens incrementally...
Buy a new 2023 Gladiator Mojave from a dealer lot. You will have the softest ride, a tough and robust truck, cast iron steering knuckles, steel hood, lifted 1" more than a Rubicon and a great daily driver.
And new trucks have a $10-15k markdown, and a great transition/upgrade from Tacoma.
