Best line ever to describe sports on stock tires lol. Every time I drive by a stock gladiator i'm just going to imagine this from now on

"It has the "Technology Group," which includes no technology except proximity door unlocking."

Love our glady but this rings so true. My wife has a mildly spec'd Mazda CX-9 which is a year older yet feels like a futuristic space ship when I drive it. Makes me love my primitive gladiator even more.

Is anyone else genuinely surprised he found not only a previous year left over new Gladiator, but a diesel one as well? Granted, I'm in truck country here in TX, but Gladiators are constantly getting sold as they hit the lots around me, and finding a diesel one last more than a week or two on the lot is almost impossible.

I'm not saying they're on backorder and can't keep up with demand, or anything like that. But the longest I've seen a Gladiator on a lot around here is maybe 3 weeks or so just from casually checking to see what the dealers around here have in inventory.

I think Jeep's are a regional thing.

Glads are very popular here in AZ, but go to CA and you don't nearly see as many.

He must live in a area that the JT isn't popular.

Agree it's regional. There's still a 22' Diesel left at my local dealer.
