Hey everyone, bought a '20 Grand Launch edition in white on Sept 2nd in Glenwood Springs, CO and love it. My 1st jeep ever and it was a total impulse buy. Wasn't planning on buying anything honestly, didn't even take my checkbook with me. They had her sitting there in White and it was done. Yea, it steers slow, it's not a speed demon and it wallers and bounces but thats the appeal of it. Took it to Ouray, CO for it's inaugural mountain pass climb/getting dirty party and loved it. I guess the GLE had every option so there wasn't that headache of picking what option I did or didn't want. It doesn't have side steps or running boards and that's the only thing I'm thinking about getting at this point. Since it has the rock rails and I don't want to take them off, what are my options?
Looking forward to learning about what can be done with this thing.

I n Colorado go for winch bumper with d rings, a good 10,000 lb winch, and a rope not cable, look for the off road goodies to go with the winch. Look at all the gladiator posts for ideas and equipment be spending a lot of money you will change later.

Post up a pic I want to see what a Gladiator Grand LE looks like - good for your profile also - shows where you start and how bad the bug has bitten
