I know that I’m new to JTs, but I’ve not noticed any handling issues at 70 to 75 mph on the highway. Maybe it’s because it’s a High Altitude with the sport suspension and all season radials (not all terrain or off road tires). For a midsized truck, I think it handles pretty well. The diesel...
I'm in Texas and I hate the back and forth. Just choose a time and stick with it. An alternative would be to split the difference. Move from Daylight Savings time to 30 minutes back, then leave it for eternity. For instance, 12:30pm Daylight savings time would become the new noon. We will...
So a little background first. We live in a rural area. If the roads get bad due to ice, etc., no one will come out and de-ice or clear the roads. We aren't the typical Jeep demographic, we wanted a mid-sized truck with 4wd, and the Gladiator seemed to be a good fit (hated the Chevy Colorado...
Joined the club on Monday. 2023 High Altitude Diesel. After driving it this week, really glad we got the Diesel. I have to pry the keys out of my wife’s hands to drive it. So I guess it’s hers now.
Just bought a 2023 High Altitude diesel for my wife on Monday and drove it 4 hours home. 253 miles on a half tank of diesel (first full tank, should get better after break-in). She loves the retro look and really likes the way it drives. She keeps going out to the garage this morning to look...
Yes, but this is not the gladiator diesel that I ordered back in March. This was one on a dealership lot that I saw advertised. They would only let me pick it up after the repair was completed.. They replaced the fuel pump plus a bunch of other parts that I don’t remember from the list. They...
I bought the new High Altitude Diesel yesterday. 16 miles on the odometer. I forgot to take the copy of the repair sheet and the window sticker (left them at the salesman’s desk), but they replaced the complete fuel system. Drove 4 hours (240 miles) after picking it up in San Antonio, driving...

I got a call from the dealership yesterday. All parts are in and the replacement parts will be installed and the gladiator ready today.
I'll be making the 4 hour drive early next week to pick it up.
On another thread I posted that I reserved a new 2023 Jeep Gladiator High Altitude Diesel at a dealership. Was told today that they have the replacement fuel pump but are wating on another part, which will arrive 10/18. The install will happen after the 18th.
I just reserved a fully loaded 2023 Diesel High Altitude. They took it to the service department to see if they have the parts for the recall repair. I will find out tomorrow when I will be able to pick it up.
Funny thing, it isn’t for me, it’s for my wife. I gave up on diesel jeeps and...
Not necessarilly true. I gave up on my JTD order which was accepted March 31st and bought a Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4x4 with the 3.0L Duramax. I got it for $8K below sticker price and 1.9% financing.
Diesel is the way to go.
