Jeep Gladiator

Might be the first post you didn't end with "lol" I'm impressed

 

No Suzuki has killed far to many people with top heavy short wheelbased Samurai.

 

They are talking about it. I ditched my post outta respect for OP. Didn’t want to jack his thread, but here is that link. I hope they come to North America. They are stick shift, which is cool.

Here is one driving around California for a reviewer from India (go figure). Actually a good review. Looks like a fun little truck in the 5-Speed stick.

The Rubicon edition does help with the looks and like @Stocklocker said there will probably be some killer mods for it. That said, still wouldn't trade trade my Taco for it.

 

I don't know, you would probably be better off getting a dedicated offroad side by side. Practically the same price, better performance, and safer Suzuki knows they could never try to release something like that again in the states.

 

Do they still sell Suzuki in the US?

 

They do not sell cars anymore. Only ATV, cycles, and scooters.

 

Where I live, you can sell a good condition Samurai in 2019 for more than you paid for it new. Solid axles front and back, and cheap as chips at the time. They were known to be bulletproof, highly capable Offroad, and simple to fix (and even the newer Sidekicks and Grand Vitaras get a surprising amount of Offroad cred)

People just didn’t know how to drive them on the Autobahns so always flipped them doing 90 into a hairpin.

 

For more money when adjusted for inflation?

 

Such videos and or photos should be banned from TW

 

Well.....I’m not going to break out my abacus, but you get my drift. Possibly it’s a wash, but they are in demand and fetch more than you would think.

 

Not for me due to build quality, highway driving, and price, but I bet they sell everyone they can make.

 

I’ll come back on March 30th to get the full review

 

Yeah I'm looking at them now. Some of the prices are shocking.

 

The nice thing about it being a Jeep review is we don’t have to hear Andre say “Tayoda” 300 times.

 

Canada. It's a funny place am I right? Where manual transmissions aren't valued but yet Sidekicks, Samurais, and Vitaras are coveted.

 

I love the way the Gladiator looks, and I've considered buying a new Jeep. I work at a dealership detailing vehicles and I get a substantial employee discount. However, would ANY Jeep product be as reliable as my Tacoma? I'd like to see a 3.6L Pentastar go almost 95,000 miles without trouble.

Also, my Tacoma is paid off!

 

The border is much more than an economic barrier. Super crazy shit like 3rd Gen Access Cab MT Offroads with standard heated seats roam the streets up here. It would blow your mind.
