After doing some reading watching reviews on folks that have towed with the Gladiator I have developed some different approach to analyzing the tow rating of the Gladiator and the tow efficiency. SAE J2807 gives all the parameters that the vehicle must meet to achieve the tow rating. This...

Ram released their specs for Ecodiesel; 260hp/480lbft. It can likely be assumed that this is what the Gladiator will get. What I think is interesting is that this engine will need to bump up to the ZF 8HP70 transmission to handle to torque, not the 850RE that has been available in the...

I have stumbled across a Black LE listed for 3k under MSRP. I know this is not a 5% below invoice deal, is this a good deal on a limited availability Jeep? It was ordered for someone who now doesn't want it. Thoughts? I can't get any local dealers to even budge from MSRP on regular priced...

Are the rear fenders the same on a Rubicon JT and Sport S JT? i.e. will 35's fit stock on the rear of a Sport S, Overland, Etc? I'm curious if you can go grab a pair of front Rubicon JL fenders and put them on a Gladiator then run 35's. I like the idea of low center of gravity with the...

I'm torn. I would really like to get a Gladiator but can't figure out what trim will best suit my needs. My preference would be to get the Rubicon but the price really runs up quickly if you want any options. It seems that I can get a nicely equipped Overland for 7-10k cheaper and have...

So I went to my local dealership to check out a Gladiator that they had on the lot, Firecracker Red Overland. The Jeep was fantastic and my wife even gave me the go-ahead if I wanted to buy it and liked the interior. However, I just didn't feel good enough to move forward. Here are my issues...

I like many here love the concept of the Gladiator and would love to have one but I just can’t make financial sense of it. I am a long time Jeeper, I’ve had several XJs, a WJ , JKUR and currently have a 1952 M38 and my wife’s car is a 2014 Grand Cherokee Hemi. In 2007 I bought a brand new...
