- 2020 Jeep Gladiator
Picked up this Billet Rubicon Gladiator last week from a L.A. dealership with no markup and under MSRP.
459 miles and absolutely love it. Removed the badges and tinted the front windows. Exhaust and wheels next.

I drove about 120 miles to Tyson's Corner for a great deal. (5% below invoice - NO HAGGLE) Craig Benner, internet salesman at Koons Jeep, was great to work with. In and out today quick and efficient. Instead of driving the interstate all the way home I took Route 1 and kept my speed below 55 MPH.... Call me old fashion - I don't care. The cold tire pressure was 42 psi when I left the dealership. I left it like that so I compare the handling at lower psi. After about 50 miles of driving, I stopped and lowered the tire pressure from 47 to 41. It was fine with the higher psi (minimum wandering) but very smooth at the lower psi. I will check the tire pressure in the morning and try a few different psi's (depending). I will compare the lower psi steering experience similar to my Grand Cherokee and Lexus. Luckily, I don't have a wandering issue with my truck!! I got several thumbs up and a few waves on the way home... I got 18.8 MPG with a lot of stop and go on the interstate and traffic lights on Route 1. I am happy as a PIG in "stuff"!!! Lastly, and don't shoot the messenger, I ordered my Jeep on June 6th and picked it up today the 2nd of July. A WORLD'S RECORD... I guess my timing of order just hit the right production model and color (maybe). OR THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON FOR PRODUCTION! I truly feel for all the guys and gals that are waiting for their jeeps! I actually talked to the manager about the "Launch Edition" folks not getting their trucks first. They are very aware of the issue but I asked him to pass it up the chain of management. IT JUST ISN'T RIGHT! P-E-R-I-O-D
CHEERS!
