I really hope he has serious brake upgrades to help slow/stop all that extra heft.

I had a 2015 Cherokee TrailHawk 3.2 4x4, that on my first oil change at 4,000 miles needed a pint, so instead I changed it. But it was like that till I traded it in. A pint of full synthetic every 4,000 miles.

Wasn’t the Nighthawk package including the color matched hardtop? Never seen one with cloth roof before. With a hardtop? Yes that’s a fair deal. The only thing I don’t like about that package was the fact it came with too big a wheel choice20” in believe. Plus the limited list of other options I...

But I now have a lifetime average of 20.5 mpg, get 24 on highway trips and 20 city if there’s not too many lights a bumper to bumper. I do not ever use the start stop system. Never use any oil between 4,000-5,000 oil changes at the dealer.

Wow but your truck is running heavy if you’re 7,600cgvw, while your trailer is only 1,000? At 6,600 you are either over or dam close to the GVWR.

Ok so as you roll to a stop the trans will slowly downshift to 1st, but then you can upshift to 2nd that’s designed for taking off in snow and get a smoother takeoff then just go back to auto, or upshift quickly at 2,000 rpm’s. If I do that I can get 20+ mpg city, depending upon how many red...

You bring up a valid point, but there’s a very easy, factory designed an engineered work around that works fine for me in my stock Gladiator. That’s to use the manual side of the shift, that will prevent constant downshifting. I can only imagine how that would work with a supercharger adding...

I had two fantastic Colorados before this. A 2016 ext cab Z71,4x4, V6. Then a 2019 crew cab Z71,4x4, V6. Both used for towing a 5,600lbs 26’ travel trailer. We wanted a Gladiator since their release in 2019, but too expensive at first with no deals. But in 2024 we found a Sport S, no tow just as...

That will be deep in the owners manual somewhere. I can’t say because I never use the radio, especially Sirius. I’m a big fan of Apple Car Play for all my listening enjoyment. With the voice commands I hardly use the buttons at all.

The craziest stuck pullout I’ve ever had to do, was back in 1978, when I got my 73 Scout II stuck in an area where we went off roading pretty often. But in back of a water filtration facility, built 50 years before that. In Cumberland RI, S. Attleboro MA area. They had an area where they spread...

Having had two previous owners would make me pause. I would want a CarFax and dealer maint/service search done to make a sound decision.

Sounds fair, just $1,000 more than a new Sport S with all available options except LED Head/Fog lights. We paid 1 year 3 months ago. With a $15,000 discount.

I have driven all types of wheeled vehicles, 2-36 all over the Beautiful Country and come to an educated opinion that there are bad, inconsiderate drivers all over the place. The worst being NJ, NY BMW drivers being the most assgresive. With sadly only half actually use that lever to the left of...

Sounds like a diesel.

I’m curious, I have no tow package and never intend to with my 2024 Sport S, we use for enjoyable travel and just running around in such a unique vehicle. I do have the 4/7 trailer plug, but no hitch. I’m still wondering if when you’re plugged into a trailer, with a brake controller installed...

My last two trucks, both Colorados a 2016 and 2019, with the tow/haul mode button, if you pushed the button to activate tow haul, the signal would blink 6 times, or regular 3 times. Great when towing. But I’ve found no way of changing in my Gladiator, but it has no tow package or hitch. Just the...

You need a better shop, or adviser.

That all depends upon what you consider an upgrade. Looks? Or dynamics? A real upgrade for me would be wheels no bigger than 17” as light weight but hd as possible and tall sidewall tires passenger rated and light weight as possible. But high quality for durability on a Gladiator with stock...

Having a Sport S with the nice factory heated cloth seats? With a German Shepherd Dog that sheds? I’d rather have a nice tough leather seats!

Ben there done that as a Company Commanders Driver in Combat Engineer Unit.
