what amazes me the most is the fact that everyone has answered in a very cloned mind numbed robotic way. Did any of you ever consider I was never intending to keep it on the road? It is as though this is the only use for a truck. If everyone thought this then BIG FOOT would never have been...

Ah, but you see, I purchased my Gladiator from Charlie's Jeep in Augusta Maine and the little gas engine that could has a 3 year 30 something thousand mile from Jeep. Charlie's on the other hand extended that to 10 years 150,000 miles on the powertrain. I have a Jeep dealer 5 minutes from my...

This is a valid point, some of the tractor trailers in our fleet had literally no issues other than oil changes and wipers. I, however, just do not have that luck. If there were 10 diesel gladiators on a dealer lot and only 1 would have troubles, that is the one I would end up with. Thus my...

A long time ago I was sitting in a rest stop in PA on I 80 in my tractor trailer. A PA State Trooper came running up to my truck, Driver got your extinguisher!?! I put his patrol car out from an electrical fire while he disconnected the battery. A few months later I pull into a PA inspection...

I was sitting the the front seat today looking up at the roll bars that are painted that beautiful blue....and covered with plastic. mmmm Give myself a tiny bit more head room and be able to see the blue I shopped around for..... Maybe the engine plastic isn't the only plastic that will get...

Greetings from Maine. Just picked up a New Gladiator and have already taken it around Moosehead Lake and up around Flagstaff Lake in Maine. This is the 5th Jeep I have had and the wifey has a 2013 2 door. We always do a run up the mountain with our new Jeeps but I bought it too late to head...
