Thanks! I will definitely let everyone know what I decide to do. It will likely be a while, likely this fall. I want to do more research and, since I have a summer car (which will be coming out of its winter hibernation next month), the Wrangler will be mostly parked for the summer. This will...

No, actually I’m looking for confirmation so I can justify buying the Gladiator.
