Jeep Gladiator

Probably won't be the last either...

 

a limousine sized skid plate

I'm anxious to see the price.....its speculated to be similarly priced to its comparable 4 door JL jeep model

 

Weird niche they're trying to find with this thing.

 

Niche of guys who love Jeeps but need a truck?

 

I'll bet it's at least that much plus a "Market Adjustment" to corn-hole all the early adopters.

 

With markups I could see a rubicon version easy being over 65k. Sadly people will pay it too.

 

I agree. Don't take it personally, guys. Unless you own stock in Toyota why does it hurt you that Tacoma now has some serious competition? People buying Gladiators won't hurt you or your Tacoma. If anything, it will encourage Toyota to start offering things that might be luring Tacoma buyers into Gladiators. "Front diff lock? Yeah, I guess we can do that." Etc.

 

A full loaded Rubicon should be just under $60k

 

And Jeep can charge whatever they want and people will pay it because Jeep owns the market.....

Theres nothing else available that compares...

Solid axles, removable top, front and rear lockers, removable doors, and now add a Truck bed.....its feeling good...

Oh, and 4 wheel disc brakes and height adjustable seat

 

Probably just because the front bumper is so close to the front wheels. Wheelbase looks to be a little less than a DCSB Tacoma.

 

Have they released the dimensions yet? I’m curious

 

Can you disable the ESS so it stays off? My buddy just got another new F-150 and he says (confirmed by dealer) it will only stay off until the next time you start the truck. I'm skeptical there's no way to disable it for longer than that, but they won't tell him nor do it for him.

 

That I am unsure. Some methods seem to be to pull a fuse, so that would certainly be semi-permanent....downside is error message.

 

I've only seen this where they are comparing Crew Cab Models and long beds... which shows I may have been a bit off and the Gladiator is actually a bit longer than a DCSB.

You're welcome. Sounds like simpler, fun times indeed.
Mine was a '55 that I bought around '73. I bought it from a nearby Fire Department. It was always parked outside and didn't seem to ever be used. It was painted blue and white and had 'Civil Defense' logos on the doors. They even left the single red emergency light bolted to the center of the roof. As I was cruising through my town, a local detective pulled me over and chewed me out for just having it on there, even though it wasn't lit. Lucky for me I was able to unbolt it right there at the side of the road, or I believe he may have impounded the truck. He was a bit of a douche, acted all pissed off at me for having it.

I wish I'd kept it, but being a fickle 18 yrs old, I sold it and moved on to something else.

 

Yeah, she keeps interjecting herself in an apparent attempt to distract both the questions and the camera.

15:30 mark? Right where she says "obviously most of us spend our time offroad, on the trails....."? Hard to say what that is. My first thought was molle, as you suggest, but it may just be a pattern in hard plastic for rigidity. There is an obvious net-pocket at the bottom.
