I replaced the stock tires with the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T 255/85 R17 in January. They have been fantastic. I've not done much real offroad on them yet (summer is coming...). I can say they were fine on the highway (made a trip from Chicago area to Jacksonville). On the way home I got...
Gren and I swapped roles… I was pulling with the Ram sold it to get the Gladiator to do some off road stuff. I’m sure he is on the Ram forums now being told he needs at least a 3500 to tow it, after coming from the gladiator!
28 feet of enclosed space, just shy of 32 hitch to bumper. The picture was taken while I was taken it to and from the scales after fully loading and dumping and adjusting the WDH several times weighing in between. So, by all metrics (GVWR, GAWR, Trailer Tow Rating, etc...) everything is within...
I think I win for biggest… so far.
Sport S Max Tow. Fully loaded with tanks full, just under 7,000 lbs (never plan to pull that way, was running test pull just in case). Unfortunately, after my trip to windrock in Tennessee, I arrived home to this
so, working with insurance now, if they total...
Sad to see you go! You are one of the reasons I felt comfortable pulling the trigger on moving from the Ram to the Gladiator. I loved my Ram, but, it couldn't do the same off road stuff, and, it wasn't a convertible! The 5.7 with the eTorque is awesome... The eTorque is just enough for take...
I do have the max tow, took it to the scales, fully ready to go, and all my weights are under… now, probably would be over if I had full tanks. I also live in Northern Indiana and most of my towing is a difference of 100 feet in elevation at most. Don’t know that it’d be much fun heading...
Got the travel trailer hooked up for a test tow before winterizing it. I used to tow with my Ram 1500 (3.23 gears, max tow of 8200). Went great after adjusting the WDH. Even went to the scales to be certain I am in within all The weight specifications.
And yes, it’s pushing the limits, but...
Update: I picked up mine today! It was after dark when I finally left the dealer, so, no pictures yet. Punk’n Sport S, Max Tow, most every feature checked.
So, my dealer told me on 9/13 that it was in line to get the bedliner done, and he expected it to ship on 9/14… Well, that didn’t happen, and the strike did. So, to the best of my knowledge, my completed Gladiator is sitting waiting to get loaded onto truck.
Order Place this morning (7/14/23). The gladiator came out 6 months after I got my RAM 1500... so, I waited... Then Punk'N was gone... I told myself if it ever comes back, I'm ordering. Finally!!!
