    Between the price and its dimensions, I just dont get how it is a mid size truck competitor. I got a chance to drive one about a month ago. It was only for a few miles, but it definitely felt large and like it handled more like a full size, probably from how long it is.
    There is obviously a market for them, but like I said it is big for a midsize, end expensive imo.

    I would love a 2 door gladiator, but they don't exist and I think the 4 door is just too long.

    LS1 swap with nitros.
    Even if it was cheap and smaller, I wouldn’t touch anything fiat. No way.

    Whether sales are struggling or not, I love my JTR. So far it's my favorite vehicle I've owned in 10+ years. Flame suit on. :laughing::bananadead:

    I see alot of highly modified Gladiators here in the High Desert of Socal with a minimum of 38" tires and suspension lift and these are no where near Mall Crawler status and have trail trash to prove it

    vehicles this badass don’t need any mods!
    The damn price and the back seat. I like them, but the back seat is really the dealbreaker for me. No flame from me because they look badass lifted!
