Putting the puppy ahead of the wife is a bold strategy 😂
And I think every Jeep owner can relate to carrying around a collection of tools that seemed absolutely essential when they bought them 😅
Curious what the one thing is you MUST bring on the road with you.
Could be gear, tools, camping stuff, snacks… whatever’s considered essential at this point 😄
Oh wow yea the excitement over "new" views is just something else. Have heard lots of owners going back to Death valley but you're right... got it make sure your own gas!
Wow this is great! Love the natural wood colour of the floor... can tell it's going to have a nice homey comfy vibe to it. Can picture the peaceful quiet mornings already.
Okay this is awesome 😅
Most people are talking about scenic trips and trails, meanwhile you guys casually used the Gladiator to haul materials and build an actual cabin.
That’s a perfect example of what makes the JT so unique. One weekend it’s wheeling and camping, the next it’s towing lumber...
Okay loading giant lava rocks into the bed is a pretty solid “this is why I bought a truck” moment 😅
And honestly, that’s one of the cool things about the Gladiator. It can do the camping/adventure side of things, then randomly turn around and haul stuff home from a landscaping project the next...
Okay yeah… that’s not a trip anymore, that’s a full-on expedition 😅
30 days living out of the Gladiator and stringing together places like Moab, Death Valley, the North Rim, Sedona, Tahoe, the Oregon coast, Yellowstone… that’s incredible.
And honestly, the fact that you were cooking, camping...
Honestly that's fair... that first drive home hits different 😅
There’s just something about finally getting behind the wheel of your own Gladiator for the first time that sticks with you.
That’s a pretty legendary list of trips already 😅
Easter Jeep Safari and the NorCal BDR alone are bucket-list level, then adding Death Valley, Anza-Borrago, and the Eastern Sierra on top of it is hard to beat.
Sounds like the Gladiator’s definitely being used the way it was meant to be. Which...
Oh no! That’s pretty early for death wobble to start showing up, especially with no off-roading.
Did you end up figuring out which component was causing it?
Oh no 😢
123k is still a pretty solid run, but definitely tough news to get.
Finding a remanufactured engine with a 4-year warranty sounds like a pretty decent outcome all things considered. Hopefully it gives you a fresh start and a lot more miles out of it.
Oh that is rough.
Yeah… there are definitely some impacts that no film is going to completely stop, especially something that size at highway speeds 😅
But even in situations where the glass still cracks, having that extra sacrificial layer can help keep the windshield together a bit better...
Honestly that’s a great answer too. Sometimes it’s not even about the craziest off-road trip, it’s about the trips your truck makes possible.
And camping at Atlanta Motor Speedway for NASCAR weekend sounds like an absolute blast 😅
Definitely one of those “this is why I bought this thing” kinds...
That sounds like an incredible trip. The Denali Highway alone has a reputation for testing just about everything 😅
And honestly… you’re not wrong. Roads like that are exactly the kind of environment where windshield protection either proves itself or doesn’t.
Now the important question: are...
