This might be a "Trail Tech & Tips" thread or I don't know. I'd love to start seeing some plans for those that plan to make their Gladiator into a home on wheels. This might mean setting it up to tow, it might mean setting it up to live out of, or might just mean making it something worthy of longer trips. I'm trying to work out the benefits and flaws to decide what will need an aftermarket modification.
My plans are to tow a high-walled popup that sits at 3500 lbs empty, my '14 JKU does fine pulling it but I'll feel better with the towing additions of the Gladiator. That's for longer trips which will contain the whole family. I would still like to build a bed tray system for my basic needs and put a light weight camper (gofastcamper) on top that lets me do weekend excursions as well. I am irritated that a couple of nice long distance options are only available in the Rubicon. I have kids, I want plugs and chargers aplenty in the backseat and that's not an option in the Sport S.
Anyone overlanding in their current vehicle? What do you plan to move over to the Gladiator?
