There is something to be said when the Gladiator is compared to one of the quirkiest cool vehicles out there, the VW van or bus 60's-70's. I can think of one other vehicle that holds that crown, the Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 70's. the quirkiness is what gives them personality. So we deal with...
Sometimes a joke becomes a joke when others don't really appreciate it as a joke. Some of us bought our Gladiators "as is" for many reasons, money constraints, no need for luxury purchases, budgeting for improvements, etc. The mere fact that someone wants to classify Gladiator owners as with or...
I definetly would buy base. I suspect somewhere along the line the auto industry realized that add ons would bring more money. Base = unnecessary expense. If you lived most of your life without, you make do.
Question based on a conversation with dealership service department. I recently reached 5k on my gladiator and called dealership to schedule servicing, was told that my vehicle would notify me somewhere between 5k and 8k when to get it serviced. It would appear on my dash panel notifying me to...
As it turns out, this feature is probably good when you are sitting in traffic for more then 5 mins, like when there is an accident in a tunnel, or summer bridge traffic to the beach.

Change is good. Don't get it I guess, I am at a light for maybe 30 secs so why shutdown
That 8% is then lost to big ol nobby tires driven in the city and oh wait,...stop light...car shuts down, green light, get up and go! my point was that it is a peeve and i must remember to disengage it when...
The three are
one: that silly 'A' auto shutoff capability to save on gas, annoying and unnecessary, I think.
two: No dead pedal or decent rest area for left foot
three: The rubber molding around windows, the joint or seam is dead center on the window causing a dirty streak when it rains

It's a "Jeep thing" you either are about a jeep or you're not, in other words, hence the creaking and what have you. When you are considering a vehicle you might consider say a Ram truck vs a Chevy truck. Maybe a 4 runner vs a Nissan truck, a Jeep Gladiator is a category on it's own with maybe...
