  1. Gladiator bed box depth / height is 17.5" from floor to top of rail

    If it is, then it's exact the same as my current hilux and the 47L ARB fits perfectly as is...one win
  2. Gladiator bed box depth / height is 17.5" from floor to top of rail

    Am i reading that tape different...I see 450mm on one edge which is 17.7"...crazy seppo measurements
  3. jl pricing & spec for aus

    Mate, I've also put this up in the "what would you pay" thread. With currency conversion it's pretty close to US pricing...but I'm guessing the Gladiator is going to come in around 'cruiser price...which is crazy
  4. What’s your price Point?

    No mate, you are quite correct it is $Aud....I should do a $US direct comparison chart if I get the time
  5. What’s your price Point?

    Either I've missed something or we are paying $20K more...if you saying $49 and we are $69.... Either way potentially $69K + is eyewatering for a ute
  6. What’s your price Point?

    For those with even the slightest interest in Aust pricing (Wrangler for comparison)
  7. What’s your price Point?

    Wowee...I have just seen that the 2019 Wrangler Rubicon is released at an eye-watering $68,950 here That 99% confirms my fears they will bring the gladiator in at the niche (landcruiser pricing) end of the market. If it's anywhere near comparitive rates to the standard wrangler they aint going...
  8. Jeep issues query for general interest

    It's all good...I keep a can of Dingo repellant in the glovebox, next to the hoop snake puncture kit and all stored in my drop bear helmet
  9. Jeep issues query for general interest

    It's interesting as I am in a 10 y/o vehicle now...and on reflection has had some mechanical coin spent on it. (stupid Toyota injectors...anyway, that's a whole other discussion) and couldnt tell you what it would rate agains current safety standards. Funny I accept the risk of the kids in my...
  10. Jeep issues query for general interest

    G'day all, just getting the thoughts on the US "feel" for Jeep and its inherent quality (or lack thereof) The Australian Jeep market is going to need to ovecome quite a negative perception of the current Wrangler products. Everything from engine issues, seatbelt issues, safety rating queries...
  11. What’s your price Point?

    In Aust, I'm hoping is comes in around the $50 - $60K mark...otherwise it goes into a really niche low volume high cost market. Think the Raptor is around the $80K+...and there aint many on the roads! If I can come in close to $50K and then $10K for mods...I'm doing OK. They havent really stated...
  12. Turning radius.

    I'll freely admit that this spec is of concern...turning the hilux is like turning the ark, and the one thing I dont really rate about my current rig. It's why I added a reverse camera ro assist while I do my Austin powers impression shuffling the car back and forth in car parks to get a clear...
  13. Turning radius.

    Pretty sure I saw in one of the spec sheets the turning circle is 13.5 metres...which in Aust puts it pretty much worst in class and about a metre more than competitors (Ranger is 12.7, Hilux is 11.8)
  14. "Entertained" - awesome 2019 Jeep commercial!

    I'm not big on ads...a few weird bits...but generally cool
  15. Jeep confirms Nov 28 reveal with Jeep Gladiator video teasers

    It's going to be a long week....
  16. Diesel vs gas

    I've always run diesel for the lower end torque...bit more control up and down hills with not so much loud pedal. Plus the odd trailer with wood, ditrbikes or camping gear etc... that being said, ny current daily runner is really not liking the short run to a train station to get to work...so...
  17. SEMA 2018

    wow....simply wow
  18. Jeep Gladiator Pickup Truck (JT) Spy Pics and Videos!

    I'm still sticking with that departure angle is horrendeous!....something just isn't right We'd get hung up on the most basic water crossing exit or burm entry with that set-up. Fingers crossed I am wrong!
  19. SPOTTED: Production-Spec Jeep Wrangler Truck:

    Well that threw me for a second...there are 2 different rigs in the gallery. The MT tyre vresion looks better...rear bumper looks higher too
  20. Complaining aside, what would be a dealbreaker?

    Starting to seriously question the arrival/release date in Aust....I'm hanging on to my existing rig...but the intial plan was to upgrade to the Jeep in early 19....which then puts my existing in 10yr + category. Re-sale drops dramatically for me...so longer Jeep takes, the less likely...
