As SLJ rightly said in Pulp Fiction, you don’t eff with another man’s car.

Gladiator doesn’t need it, it’s too quiet already. Said nobody ever.

The diesel with the 6MT would be bad ass.

I’m part of the problem, I like everything else enough to compensate for the crap motor.

We live in a world where many economy sedans have over 300 HP. Having under that in a $50k+ truck is laughable. As others have noted, the character of the Pentastar is also terrible for a truck. An engine that makes peak torque in the upper half of the rev range is about the worst choice for...

Amen. The 3.6 is mediocre at best and a terrible match for the Gladiator. Only the corporate bean counters would pair a minivan V6 with no low end torque with an old school off road Jeep truck. It’s my least favorite thing about the JT. I also agree that most of the wailing and gnashing of...

That was an excellent and surprisingly factual review for YouTube. I love Toyota products and am the former owner of an FJ80 and 4th gen 4Runner. I think in the 1990s and early 2000s that Toyota was building the highest quality cars on earth. But from that point forward, particularly in their...

I think you’ll be SOL on the clunking. Mine has been a little clunky since new. I’ve found that if you are patient with your shifts it will be much smoother and quieter. Ultimately it’s a truck with minimal sound deadening, you hear everything. I’ve played with a lot of things and still not...

I know that all of CA isn’t LA, too bad the big cities drag you all down. I’ve spent plenty of time in the desert where the people are far closer to KS than they are LA. I keep hoping to see common sense win out!

I understand where you are going and hope that you are correct. I agree that right now a lot of companies are positioning for the sake of politics and optics. If they are not, I suspect we’ll have some struggling car companies in a few years, while those that maintained ICE and hybrid products...

Considering the vast majority of their product announcements have been EV, it will be interesting to see where the new engines find a home. But I don’t have insider information on the topic, and what you are suggesting makes far more sense from a sales and market demand perspective. The...

Congrats! Looks like a well built JT and CLEAN.

I would agree on both counts. From a business perspective it’s also a head scratcher, because when you peel away the hype around EVs they still aren’t really selling that many of them. I would consider a 4XE Gladiator if Jeep could make it reliable, but there’s no way an EV version would work...

Jeep stated corporate goal is 50% of US and 100% of Europe sales will be EV by 2030. Stellanits has made similar commitments across all of their product lines, it’s why the next Charger and Challenger will be EVs. They seem to be putting most of their eggs in that basket. I had a 2008 F250...

Motorbiscuit is trash, posting them to support your argument instantly makes you lose credibility. They are clickbait pure and simple. The reality is that buying ANY new vehicle is going to cost you in depreciation. The last few years are an anomaly, not reality. We are now finally starting...

Seems they are going all in on EV. Time will tell us if their decision is a good one, as most other companies are taking a more measured approach considering the still slow sales of EV compared to ICE.

While I’ve read the same things about the Ram 1500 sharing parts with the JT, I don’t believe a lot of what’s posted is correct. The current Ram 1500 is four wheel independent suspension, so it certainly doesn’t share a design with the JT. I seem to recall reading that some of the rear frame...

My last three trucks were a 2012 F150 5.0, a 2013 F150 Ecoboost, and a 2008 F250 diesel. All did a lot of towing and all were phenomenal trucks. My Ecoboost had full bolt ons and a tune and made it over 300k. If I still towed anything more than a 4x8 utility trailer there’s no way I’d own a...

ARE CX Evolve for me, happy with my choice after a few initial quality issues got sorted.

Yup, total garbage. Don’t waste your click, it’s some intern hack who hasn’t even driven them. That’s everything I’ve seen from that site, clickbait BS website.
