Def agree on Earl being weaker, and wanting a bikini cause of how bright it is, but the yellows/red aren't for me, and the Hydro Blue is such a distant second (to bikini) that I thought maybe better to just go for something different w/ the Earl. I really was pleasantly surprised by a lot when I...
From a wrangler site in January— allegedly the color was dropped from the Jeep site December 2022 but as of this spring the dealers could still pick it on a build page. Unsure of status as of today, late Aug 2023 or if it’s on the 2024 (it IS available on the 2024 Wranglers, but then so is...
Nooo! I saw my first Earl yesterday and went online to price out a Gladiator build with it and it’s gone?!? There are still some built new ones on lots around the country but that makes things much more complicated, and without some creative inter-dealer swaps means I’d lose out on the...

For about two weeks now I was incorrectly convinced by a poorly written Edmunds headline that Bikini was coming to the Gladiator and have been walking on air. (Copy paste: “Bikini Blue and Punk'n Orange Join the Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator Color Roster”). I just learned that’s not what they...
Thanks everyone. There wasn’t a specific one for sale but I was looking at prices and you can get some 2022’s with 15-30k miles for 30-45k without looking far, and I was comparing that to what I can reasonably presume a new 2024 would cost (or even a 2023; while the employee discount is...
Hi. Environmentalism (if 4xe) and Bikini color aside, is there any reason I should pay extra for a new 2024 over a 2022 gently used Gladiator for a lot less money? The refresh doesn’t change much to warrant what will probably be a $25k difference in price (say 40k vs 60k). Even if 4xe, I’d never...
