I read somewhere that the 3.0L EcoDiesel engine doesn't fit into the right hand drive configuration..

No mate, wish I did though as I would have scored my gladiator off this first delivery. My dealer says it could be October before the next shipment comes in, including mine... I hope he's wrong :(

Few pics around now as dealers start to get stock..

Vic registered Gladiator spotted.... :rock:

Yeah thats the drive-away price. LCT, not sure, dunno if they even class it as a ute, truck, pick-up or what.... ? I think the LCT threshold is around $67500 at the moment so a Rubicon with no options is still $10000 more than that.

He did confirm that there is Gladiators already in Australia which I've seen mentioned by a couple of others so I guess customs etc.... Might not be too far off.

Haven't heard anything on a firm launch date.... My dealer has all the pricing in the system now though and can order. Rubicon, Granite Crystal, Lifestyle Adventure package and Steel front bumper came in at $85600 Luxury car tax was $3297.30 :no:

They weren't supposed to be here till May but I can't see that happening if the factory is currently closed down for however long... My dealer tells me he can't even log my order into the computer yet..?

Premium paint in US is only the metallic and pearl coat at an extra cost of US $195 which is about AU $300. In Australia all colours other than black and white an extra AU $1035. :whatsgoingon:

Soooo.... Who's getting one then?

Prices are up there mate, home page click on prices. Black and white base price all others premium paint extra $1000.

There is no manual option for the JL Wrangler in Australia either.

It was supposed to be today but has apparently been pushed back to the 6th. Can only hope that they have seen all the negative feedback on lower spec AUS Gladiators and are doing something about it...... Unfortunately I doubt it but as always I will be very glad to be proven wrong :like:

pretty much.

Was on their Facebook page this morning.

From Double Black Offroad this morning...... @fca_group will release details of the gladiator specs for our market on the 2nd of March. At the moment what we’re hearing isn’t good. Hope their listening to the criticisms and are willing to change. Here is a repost of what we thought back on...
