Saw your edit later. I hope this is the case. You had me considering changing our plans. I am also curious if you have any recommendations on beach driving. I would like to one day drive and park for a full beach day. Any specific area you suggest? What all do I need to know?

So, what you are saying is I'm going to look like a tourist with the soft top no matter what I do? I really didn't think about how windy it will be on the east coast. Probably should have booked on the panhandle. The hotel I found is more geared toward families so I am hoping that area won't be...

Very good info! I have been in some wind on the highway and the whole truck doesn't like it. The top seemed to do ok but I can't say the wind was bad enough. Yeah I am really looking forward to it. We usually take these trips in the mini van:CWL:. So it's going to be an experience. Hopefully for...

I hope it doesn't get that bad. Was that after a while of the soft top breaking in or pretty much instantly? So far I haven't noticed any window vibration but that would not be good if it gets that way. Yeah I could see where that might happen close to semis. Even behind them I could see where...

I have driven it on the highway between 75-80 mph. And though it is louder than the hard top, I didn't feel it was unbearable. It seems pretty tight. I do notice some wind buffeting, but it seemed only noticeable when the radio is off. We are staying at a hotel so leaving the hard top off...

Wait, you said doors off? I don't plan to drive in the rain with doors off :LOL:. I'm more concerned how the soft top will handle traveling if we do hit rain with doors on? Only time I may take doors off is if I know there is very little chance of rain. And that's when we are at our destination.

We are going to Daytona Beach next week. About a 13 hour drive. This will be our first trip with the Gladiator. I am looking forward to driving it on the beach. I need some opinions on driving there and back with the soft top or hard top. I've already got the soft top installed. It will be my...

Thanks for the info! Wanted to make sure I knew what I would be getting and that definitely helps. I agree, if you were closer I might take you up on that.

Recently picked up my 2021 Gladiator Sport S Max Tow. Looking for new take-off Rubicon Rock Rails. I don’t want used, beat up, or scratched rails. This is a brand new Jeep so I want the rails to look new as well. Hoping to find someone close by that has some they have taken off, or taking off...

If you upgraded to the AT tires I would say it will be them. I got the Max Tow and it automatically selects ATs. I like them but they are a little small. Trying to decide if I should put new tires on these rims or just get a whole wheel tire package and keep these for long camper trips.

Picked it up today. Unfortunately pouring down rain all day. But I will say it handled very well. Surprisingly quiet interior and smooth ride. Loving the adaptive cruise. My first time actually using one. Daniel wasn’t there but a pretty smooth and quick checkout process. Ordered 2/8/21. Was...

I’ll keep an eye out. When you plan on picking up? Poor Daniel, I’ve bugged him about sending a picture. I know he’s been really busy though.

Found out today mine is in as well. Hoping to get picked up Friday. Unfortunately Daniel will not be there, but I presume all will go smooth. Already have total price and financing in place. Ordered 2/9 so definitly quicker than I expected.

Ordered 2/9. Fingers crossed I’ll be getting a call next week to pick it up. Any suggestions on what to expect when going to get it? Just curious if there are additional things they will offer like warranty or detailing? Or additional items like accessories? I’m hoping to get any financing and...

I spoke to them last night and mine is the same status. Ordered mine 2/9, and my dealer (Daniel-Gupton Motors) told me he figured would be at the dealership end of March or start of April. Based on that I’m curious if it will be same timeline.

I added pretty much every option, minus accessories, because I knew I would be in the same situation regretting something in the end. I even had slush mats but decided to remove that. Hoping it will at least have carpet mats for now. Daniel even had the Bluetooth speaker on the final build sheet...

I would like to know about this as well. I ordered mine Feb. 8th. I asked Daniel about adding the brake controller to the package and he said it wasn’t an option. But we didn’t discuss them adding at the dealership. I’d like to check on that and maybe some other things for when it gets...

Kentucky. Don’t have my Jeep yet, but hopefully by end of March.

I don’t have my Gladiator yet, so I hope you don’t mind me giving my opinion based on what I have ordered and researched myself. I ordered the Uconnect 8.4 with Alpine. Pretty much for the reason eyekode said. More screen real estate for Car play and other things. I don’t care about the...

I just went on Costco and priced it with all my options, plus the Freedom Package. Looks like it would be about $3-4k more. I think I’ll live with what I’ve got ordered. Thanks for the help!
