  1. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    I've noticed that it downshifts on pretty much every overpass - even at 65 mph. But, when it's just cruising along on level ground at 65-70 mph it's reporting a stable 29 mpg with the stock tires!
  2. Basic operational questions

    Thanks for that link - it goes to a manual that has 480 pages - the manual I downloaded 3 weeks ago has 670 pages and neither one of them answers my questions, but the great people here have answered my questions!
  3. Basic operational questions

    I did receive the hard copy manual when we bought the truck, and one of the first things I did when we got home was to download a copy to keep on my laptop. But as I said above, neither copy explains the questions I asked...thanks to everybody here for the help!
  4. Basic operational questions

    Thanks everyone - I searched in the manual, both the physical manual and the pdf one, and could not find it - the manual states that the ACC position is there, and what it does, but not how to access it! Same with the trip odometers: it shows where to see them, but not how to reset them! When...
  5. Basic operational questions

    We've had our Gladiator for about 3 weeks now and I've got 2 questions I can't find in the manual: 1. How do I get the ignition into the Accessory position? The book says it has an Acc position, but doesn't say how to access it. 2. How do I reset the trip odometer? I'm sure I'll have more...
  6. NorCal Gladiator Folk?

    We're also in San Jose - the West Evergreen area. Looking for some dirt roads to try out the 4WD stuff, without damaging the truck!
  7. About to make a deal and last minute the dealer tells me the vehicle has over 4000 miles...

    The standard warranty paperwork shows the 3 year/36K miles but somewhere on all the papers you signed it will have the actual miles on the vehicle when you bought it - that's the number that goes into the computer, and that's the number the service department will reference for any warranty...
  8. About to make a deal and last minute the dealer tells me the vehicle has over 4000 miles...

    Unless things have changed the factory warranty starts the day the first retail purchaser takes delivery, NOT the day the odometer is installed...
  9. Experience with Lease and Warranty

    Sometimes the lease company can be real "anal" - we once leased an F350 Crew Cab to pull our fifth wheel. So, we installed the fifth wheel hitch and everything was fine. At the lease end we wanted to buy it out and the lease company sent us to the dealer for an inspection - they wanted to verify...
  10. 2 holes in a brand new Jeep... Perfect Phone mount setup!

    How long does the phone cable have to be to reach from the console up to the dash mount?
  11. Grommet/Gasket for tailgate center hole

    That looks like a good solution - my only concern would be if you ever need to remove the tailgate for any reason. I think I would install it so it's attached to the bed, but is not attached to the tailgate.
  12. Gladiator Owners Manual (Download in PDF)

    We got the full owners manual with our Gladiator when we bought it 2 weeks ago...
  13. Official Gladiator Measurements Thread

    I just happened to be reading the owners manual yesterday and it says that if you set the tailgate in the "1/2 open" condition to haul things like plywood and such then you need to add some support in the bed. It suggests laying a 2X4 across the wheel humps, using the convenient depression that...
  14. Good Dealer in Norcal?

    We got ours at Normandin in San Jose - no pressure and no "hidden" fees
  15. Clock display

    We have the stock Uconnect 3 unit in our truck - is there a way to have the clock display active without having the radio turned on?
  16. Can we Disable the auto stop start?

    My wife likes to turn everything off while I tend to leave things where they are. Is there an advantage of one way over the other? Why?
  17. Overall who's pretty pleased with the power output of their Gladiator

    I thought the Wrangler is a body on frame, with a true ladder frame up under that body...
  18. Actual out the door pricing

    If I recall our OTD cost was $41,661.
  19. Advertised prices are not the same when you call dealership.

    The dealer we bought ours from said the 0% was good on all models, but was only good for 36 months, rather than the 72 or 84 months that was advertised on TV...
  20. Actual out the door pricing

    We bought ours, a Sport S, last week: MSRP was $42,505 and listed price was $37,642 - with the Platinum Warranty and gap insurance added on we got out the door for less than the MSRP...
