Test drove a 2021 Gladiator and ...

I couldn’t get over the gear ratios while Driving around town in these. But they surely improved the shift feel etc over the JK.
Enjoy the jt. It’s purdy but also a pricy beast

 

Those things would have to sneak up on a mirror! Pretty poor reviews too.

 

Sorry for all the questions but Dude, that’s a pretty sweet deal! What options? I imagine it’s not super loaded? Who is that dealer?

 

She is well equipped. Here is the window sticker.

 

Happy to answer what I can. Things I do not have tow hitch (already picking it up dirt cheap) heated group ( no need for me) and no leather (which I did not want).

 

That’s pretty well loaded up. I took a drive to some dealers not too far from me in El Paso, TX and the prices were ridiculous. I saw one where they wanted $77k! Can’t imagine what the hell they did to it to warrant that kind of cash. Maybe they lined the bed with 18k gold? If I could find one like yours, similarly equipped I’d almost be tempted to take the leap. Almost…

Congrats on a beautiful truck and the good deal.

 

Thank you. This dealer does not do mark ups. Good to deal with. One option for you is to go to a dealer and do a custom build (that's what I initially did before seeing the specs I wanted at a local dealer). They had several manual Gladiator Rubicons and Mojave as well. If I went with the less equipped Mojave I could have saved an additional $3,000 or so. But wanted LED lighting group.... and front locking differential.

 

If I was serious about it, I wouldn’t hesitate to drive out to them to work out the deal and get some fishing done while I was down there as a bonus. Thanks for the info!

 

Complete with a fake hood scoop. I'm sold. They should put the "angry eyes" mod on and mark it up another 8k.

 

I like the front end style. It is iconic. I don't like when people add those tacky grill mods to make it "angry." But it's their jeep. Tacky AF if you ask me.

To your point...I loved the Jeep Commanche. Doubt they'll do something like that with the Gladiator in place. But that was a more traditional truck look. Probably still wouldn't buy it, because FIAT.

 

BTW Toyota, make it look like this. Please and thank you…

 

Hell, as long as we’re making wishes Toyota, just build us a commercial version of this:

 

At that point and dropping that much $$$$$$, I would just buy my dream ride the H1 hummer Alpha

 

That Icon FJ44 IS MY dream ride.

 

they make a pretty sweet ride!!

 

Here ya go, but you'll need a lot more than $60k for that H1 alpha build...

I don't think the 8 decade old styling translates well to a 21st century vehicle. The YJ is the best looking Jeep.

This is the 21st century the Jeep needs a complete styling overhaul. Someting more like a G wagon would look better.

 

that’s a great company. They make some bad ass shit. I almost had 98 H1 before I bought my ZR2.. wife shot it down. Happy wife… happy life…

I worked at Hummer of Sacramento back in the day and fell in love. It’s like my unicorn

 

How much does it cost to have the top painted to match?

 

I might need an intervention. I’ve been watching Gladiator videos non stop on YT and I’m actually considering trading… seriously.
