  9. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    We picked up our Gladiator last week Friday. Today we had the first snow in the region, so we drove to a small hill nearby (called "Brotjacklriegel", yes, really) and walked to the top. No view from the top as were climbing into the clouds. Switched to "4W Auto" for the first time. Today i...
