35" package Gladiator spotted on 2027 Gladiator assembly line?! 👀🕵🏻‍♂️

[BSW520!]

Hey all, I know forums can sometimes bring out the best and worst, so not looking to start a major debate.

But, with Toledo Jeep Fest wrapped up and all the influencers and YouTube personalities invited on assembly line tours there has been lots of photos posted and a couple YouTube videos I have watched stated they were limited on what could be shown.

And I ran across this on FB and want to know if my old eyes are deceiving me or would this be a special build? Does this look like a 35 package Gladiator? Hard for me to tell but looks like possibly?

Looks different to me.

Definitely looks like 35's compared to what's around it but with plastic bumpers?

That said I'm more interested in the Goldilocks a few behind it. Which has body colored fenders...

They are not 315s. Too narrow.

Unless it’s the angle, those stick out more than other stock BFG 285’s. Those have to be larger, and waiting for flare extensions to remain legal in all states.

Whatever it is - it's not 'normal'. Truck closest to the camera is another one of them, based on the height of the bed rail.

Gladiator XR package incoming for '27?

If I squint am I seeing beadlock-capable wheels?

That’s what I was wondering..

Yes

I agree. Looks like XR (beadlock capable) wheels if you squint.

FWIW, even if nothing has been announced its plausible they're assembly line testers to verify that yep, a lifted Gladiator goes down the line properly.

I had wondered if they had a set on tossed them on ..

Yellerlife on YouTube or FB posted the pictures and in a video there is a driver side angle at 1:17 in the video. And in that video she shows a Goldilocks rockslide edition with color matching fenders.

And if you squint really really hard, just under the unlatched hood, you can see a dark shadow of a 5.7L V8 or Hurricane!
