    Would you trade your TRD OR MT for a Gladiator MT Sport? I miss the wind blowing through my hair.

    Depends. Similarly optioned, new for new, similarly priced? Probably.

    Priced and optioned as they are in the real world? Hell no.

    One is a Jeep and the other is a Toyota. What if both vehicles were equally reliable. Which offers the better manual transmission driving experience?

    A better option is to just kick the windshield out every time you have that urge. Cheaper than maintaining a gladiator too.

    I'd rather slam my crank in a sliding glass door than drive, much less own a Jeep.

    Lol it’s hot take Friday out here!

    No way I’d make the switch, I’m 6’4” and sat in one and just don’t fit. I wanted to like it too, but it just felt like a straight jacket to me.

    Nope, I got 2 jeeps, one is completely stock, the other is on 1 tons, lifted, 3 linked, locked and a V8. Both are broke down right now.

    Try rolling down all of the windows if you want wind in your face.
