I'm assuming that a couple of members here may well be going to the Edmonton New Car show that's coming up this weekend. My understanding is that there will be a Gladiator there, as its presence is prominently advertised on the show site. If you happen to make it, could you please let the rest of us know if the general public are allowed to get up close and inside the Gladiator?

Personally, the ONLY reason I would go is to get an up close look at the Gladiator. If all we get is a roped-off unicorn, it wouldn't be worth my time, and I'll just have to wait until one hits a local showroom.

If I do manage to attend, it'll more than likely be on Sunday, so I'm hoping that anyone who attends before then could let me know.

Thanks!

They'll be at least two there, I'm assuming you'll be able to get hands-on as well. Last year they had a few JL's and DT Ram's there and they were all opened up.

I'll be there on Saturday with my son.
We have a plan if it's roped off.
He is going to cause a ruckus close by, and I am going "over the wall" to get up close.:devil:

Just back from the show, got to sit in the Overland and the red Rubi was on a display pedestal and not accessible.Rubi was $66xxx, the Overland was loaded and $64xxx.
Somehow I envisioned them to be bigger, definitely midsize.
Lots of interest shown, but for the money they are asking, I would go Ram half ton,
with a lot more power, accesories, etc. But it's not a fair comparison, two different vehicles.
Our local dealer just got one of his two demos in today. Next is to drive and further evaluate.

Yikes, I never really thought about it till I read the options list and saw the final price, The display one is not completely loaded either, I’d still add stuff to it.

I guess that’s why it’s called sticker shock
