TUSCADERO Gladiator JT Club

[DirkG]

I've seen Tuscadero JLs in the wild, but I don't recall ever seeing a JT. And I live up the hill from a Jeep/Maserati dealership. This has to be a super rare color.

@Signing Spock Congrats, and thanks for you service and time overseas. I did get a good laugh at the Tuscy Jeep Tribe group too (wife has a Tuscadero JL), thankfully my wife looks at that group and laughs, they are crazy with some of their "jump on this bandwagon" and I don't have to tell her some of it looks really really tacky... she agrees.

@Stan H I'm guessing that is on base. Never saw those while I was in Korea or Japan but that's my guess.

@DirkG - the first one we saw was a JT at our Fair & Rodeo - my wife was drooling at the color, that started her wanting to get a Tuscadero JL but local dealership only had one and they jacked up the tires and the price. But she got what she wanted... with some help.

Surprised it says Car Wash in English and not Autowas.

lol we were stationed in the Wallonia region which speaks French … but hilariously, this was a car wash called “Americain Car Wash” lmao they did an awesome job and were super cheap, which I found ironic as those two things would never be said in the same sentence about a car wash in the states

@Y-Guy nah not on base but like I said to Stan H, advertised/targeting Americans lol there were a surprising amount of car washes named “Americain” or something similar lmao

We had a JLUW in Tuscadero first, and while we liked it (wife loved the color), when Jeep announced they were bringing Tuscadero to the JTs we just had to get what we wanted (the better JT Willys since the 2024 updates/extras i.e. rear locker and bigger screen). We’ve used the bed of this truck more than we ever used the cargo area of the JLU lmao

Anyway, I really love the JTW so am considering finding one for me when I’m done with school in a few months. I’d prefer a JTR but would be cool with a JTW. I love the wilder colors but idk about Joose or Mojito (or whatever the bright green is right now). We LOVED the Bikini color and I really hope they bring that to the JTs.

I too love the Jeep colors. We have a Joose JL and love it. I'm sure like Tuscadero, we get a lot of attention on this color.

@DirkG oh man, you could imagine all the stares we got in Europe with a metallic fuchsia Gladiator! Lmao

I don’t mind Joose…I just feel like I’d have to call it Garfield which isn’t at all bad but I don’t like the idea of a black and orange rig as much as other ideas lmao too Halloween for me, personally.

Mojito, makes me think of alien names so that could be doable lmao

I’m hoping Jeep will do Bikini or something for the 26 models. We’ll see.

Bikini is a rad color; every time we pass one (which is not often), my wife always says she wants that color. I'm a Halloween nerd (I'm that guy on my street), so Joose was a no-brainer for our family

Joose = whats the phonetic spelling on that ? Hose ?

Joose = whats the phonetic spelling on that ? Hose ?

It’s pronounced “Juice” or maybe more long O than UI lol so feel like it’s spelled pretty phonetically already. It’s not pronounced with an H like Jose or Jalapeño is lmao

Like Mojave is actually said Mohave ...lol long O oo hooter, scooter ,cooter, ie..joose

 

[Signing Spock]

Yeah, I always say “Joooose” lmao

I know it has been a while since your post, but I thought I'd suggest the IAG EZ-Step. They clamp onto the existing rock rails and are easy to install. I put a set on my anvil grey Willys. The only downside is that at $500, they cost more than some full steps. I've been happy with them so far.

Sorry just seein this. Yes i have those in my shopping cart, but have been shy to bite the bullet due to the price. But i do likehow they can be easity added and removed for off roading.

Agreed. I had a Tuscadero JLUR before this & I would occasionally see another out in the wild every now and then and quite a few when i would visit my sis in Fl but I have yet to see another JT in the wild.

Plenty of room in our driveway for a new Wagoneer Suburban for me
