I have a 2DR JL I am working on building up but not always the best on the highway. I also own a Rubicon Gladiator. Anyone tow another Jeep with a Gladiator? Numbers suggest it is possible but not much extra. Or is that just going to be a terrible experience?
The place I got mine has a bunch of the glass window version in stock now.

They ship or install local in Cincy area.
Now that I have been living with it and getting used to the latches and locking system really grown on me. The side doors are so damn handy to get into the bed. Still need to get more setup but just general use it has done better for me than any other bed cover system.
Well back to the White Gladiator club… the irony being the new one is almost the exact spec as my last white one..
Probably just going to do 35s and call it done. Wrangler is more my rock crawler/toy now this is more normal use and camping trips so light trails mostly. It was better to trade...
I am not going to miss never being able to keep it clean but I liked how it looked those few minutes after a wash or at enough distance... but sadly ended up trading the Black High Altitude to a White Rubicon. :(
Swapped the truck my cap was on.. it was heavier than expected but easy with 4 people. Need to check how tight the clamps are and may need a thicker front seal but it didn’t fall off so I call it a win.
Just curious and maybe I just need to get out and try all the keys.. but are anyone else's locks a royal pain to get the key in?
You have to finesses the key in and out and it really is the only bad thing I have had on mine so far, I really like it for the function and the look.
I did notice...
I went from a built up Gladiator to a 4 Door JL for fun use. Gladiator was just too long for my liking on trials. However ended up dumping my other car for another Gladiator.. so I just got both. Wrangler is being built up right now at the shop but the new black truck is maybe as far as it’s...
I hated the color matched on my White one, it has grown on me for the all black. My Wrangler has the black top which I prefer since it is Snazzberry, breaks it up some.
Yeah I had the other style rubicon wheel on my old white JTR pre mod and I didn’t care for them as much. These will get rid on the 20s on the High Altitude which was my only main dislike and look okay. Thought about getting them powder coated white but after looking good for ten minutes will...
Picked up another Gladiator, building up a Wrangler and wanted something for more general use so added a Gladiator just not going to turn this one into a Monster like the last one. Smart Cap and Wheels/Tires probably extent of mods for awhile.
2022 High Altitude
I can’t remember how many they said where not sold. They Get them in from time to time when I had my old Gladiator it was always the glass version so I went ahead on this now even though not doing rest of build yet.
Tell them other Trevor sent you.
Getting mine installed next week didn’t want to wait even with the rest of the truck staying stock for now.
If your looking I think they still have a few in stock.
