  1. I want a Gladiator but I’m concerned it’s not safe enough for a family vehicle

    JT also changed my driving habits. I had a genesis 5.0 prior. Left lane. 95-100 cruising. Aggressive florida driver. Now JT. Right/center lane. 73 mph adaptive cruise on. Window open and happy. Round town. Slow. Roof off. In zero rush the attitude the JT brings is just too mellow...
  2. I want a Gladiator but I’m concerned it’s not safe enough for a family vehicle

    I would argue the gladiator is situationally the best and worst truck. The head on. 15% offset being the bad. I can say from a near miss the auto braking system works amazingly well.
  3. I am assuming this is a bad thing

    I have never seen that happen but i would have that checked and fast
  4. Wrangler Has Priority Over Gladiator

    Here in Fl i see mostly rubi and JT overlands
  5. Wrangler Has Priority Over Gladiator

    Money matters. Rubicon JT and wrangler. Full option. Max profit. Drop sports and willys for rest of this year
  6. First post and a nightmare story of a warranty!

    I lived in rochester for 20 years. Never get work done at adamsons. Ever. Drive back to the cities. It might be a pita but too many stories to ever trust their service dept. Dodge or jeep they were a mess in service.
  7. Is it me, or does the JT really struggle...

    Its like a 20 year old full size. Look what a dodge ram 1500 with a 318 or 360 put to the ground in 2000. About on par with the gladiator.
  8. What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

    Installed hid lights. Pulling the air box to get to the passenger light was not fun
  9. What did you do WITH your Gladiator today?

    Ocala state park. Always a nice day
  10. Jeep acknowledges big demand for 392 Gladiator V8

    Im a mor powah guy. Trying to figure out where i would use it in a gladiator. Tow ratings would be lower i guess. Max payload would be lower.
  11. As basic as you can get...sport model

    Interesting point. How many leave the key in the truck all the time? I cant remember the last time i took it out. Just put it in center console box and forget about it
  12. Gasser real world fuel economy

    Hit 5500 miles. Sport auto fl (flat lands) 60% beach road 40% hwy. 22.6 mph. Stock tires
  13. Another small truck… Maverick

    Its not like a ranger at all. It is compact trucklet not a truck like the old ranger or current ranger. This is like a subi baja from the 1980s
  14. Driver's Door Electrical Connection

    Is there a side loading issue here? Im old sore and overweight. On the passenger side i noticed as i reconnect i was putting more pressure on the rear side of the connector. Which i guess could flex it all enough that the foward pins are pushing around the female port. Trying to be more...
  15. Moving from Vegas to Northern Minnesota

    On winter windshield blades. Piaa. Yeah cost more. Worth it up there.
  16. Moving from Vegas to Northern Minnesota

    Keep boots and gloves in the truck all winter. Thermo blanket. I lived there for 20 years. Winter is no joke. North MN can wreck you black ice. Slide. Stuck. Rural. Means a long time for help. If you end up down the ditch. Climb up to the road if you cannot be seen. Passed a...
  17. Save me from wasting endless hours on a stupid idea

    I could do that at 25. Im over 50. Just not willing to do 3 hours at 80 mph doorless
  18. JT aftermarket exhausts hardly seem worth it.

    It's all relative. Pre computer and back in carb days. Intake and exhaust could net 25% torque gains. The fight for mpg had just begun and all other needs were secondary to mpg/emissions. Just saying today it takes a lot more than new pipe to get any gains. For a jeep its a lot cheaper...
  19. Thinking. Trade, Keep?

    I dont understand. Kbb claims my gladiator is worth 4.8k more than i paid for it. I would not be a buyer in this market
  20. JT aftermarket exhausts hardly seem worth it.

    Im old. Back in the day (1980s) you could throw on a free flowing exhaust and add a lot of power. Oems really have it covered now. Unless you want it for sound i dont see the point of aftermarket exhaust today
