C U all later. Traded in the Gladiator for a 21' Ram 1500 E Torque Hemi. I tow too much and the Max Tow Gladiator wasn't up to the task here in the land of the Rockies at high elevation. Tow rating is over 7200 lbs, but honestly 5000 lbs should be their max. The diesel may be better, but the V6 is to gutless over 6000 feet where I live. They are fun, but too small and uncomfortable for a tall guy like me. To be honest, driving this like new Ram it's a night and day difference. The ride is great, so much room, and no wind noise. I really don't miss the Gladiator and I thought I would. I had been wanting one since the prototype came out years ago. I actually miss my 12 2dr Wrangler more.

I never really took it off road, not anywhere a 2 wheel drive pickup couldn't go. I have my 10' Powerwagon and that is my vehicle of choice for off road. I still like the looks of them, but won't ever own one again. As my wife said, they really are just a toy and not cut out for work.

I enjoyed my 2019 DT Ram before I got my JT. I miss the quiet ride and 6ft 4 inch bed however I can’t picture life without a Jeep. Enjoy your new ride

Enjoy! My JT replaced an F250 because I’m not towing anymore and could get away with a smaller truck. This is not a tow rig, gotta be honest about it’s capability.

Sounds like you got what you need. I needed a good off road vehicle that could also do double duty as light PU when needed so I’m ecstatically happy with mine.

Enjoy your new ride. . .
