**2020 Jeep Gladiator official pics and specs**

[TexTJ209]

I'll open with, I'm still skeptical since it was posted by someone with 0 other posts and they just created their account. That first picture looks totally legit, the 2nd and others start to look a little rendered.

That being said, I'll allow that maybe someone created a new account to post and not have it traced to them... maybe.

If these ARE legit, I'm kinda bummed by how tiny that pass-through window looks... my 60 lb puppy might have a hard time getting through. We'll see once it's real.

The super fuzzy spec list doesn't really say much, a lot of marketing hype, so that doesn't lend credit to anything imo. Great if it's true, fine if not. I'm still waiting for an official reveal before getting excited or disappointed. All of the things listed are great for me, I'll take them. The pictures, rendered or not, are great to me... I'll take it.

Most likely it's a "leak" in the sense that it probably was done intentionally by FCA's marketing team to generate buzz prior to the unveiling. Hence the random new user posting these images that we'll probably never hear or see again.

Is there any speculation on when that might be? 2.0 doesn't help me on the JT. Also wonder what the hold up is since its apparently ready on the Rams.

I bet it's available in the JT at launch.

Buying mine as an overlander/toy hauler. I've never been a truck guy but the JT has ACTUAL tow rating, and I can haul camping crap, bike crap, dogs, coolers, etc. And I have ZERO desire to use a full sized truck as a DD.

I was hoping that the JT would come out with a base spec model with a 6 spd and manual everything for around $35k. I know they tend to release the high end models first, but hopefully there is a budget Sport version for us average Joes.

Bingo! I absolutely love the RAM Rebel but have zero interest in a truck that big. This will fit my needs perfectly as a family travel rig for camping and vacations.

Exactly my thinking. It was probably intentional as a way to generate a buzz and get the media outlets talking.

They both wear the same plate.

I suspect the limiting factor will be suspension and not engine option. I also think the Rubicon will be rated to tow less than other trims.

I think we all missed this is the description:

"Suspension tuned to optimize on-road handling and ride comfort without sacrificing off-road capability, payload or towing capability"

*Yawn* I can't believe the hype about this "leak". AEV did a much better job IMO. You can get a used Hemi Brute for what they are going to charge for this. I'm guessing $50-60k

The Cheapest used AEV Brute I found on Rubitrux.com is $75k didn't have the HEMI and is a 2013 model no warranty most are above $87k and into 6 figures for a used Brute. Would be interested to know what AEV did a much better job at being that we don't have a production vehicle to compare to.

90% of the Gladiator buyers are buying a "cool" lifestyle truck. Even FCA expects this by pricing it as a premium product. If people want a "real" truck, you can pick up a 2019 Hemi Ram Rebel for a little less than a JT. People are buying these for the fun factor.

And?

I just searched for "geb560 license plate" and found a post from a Jeep forum last year using the same number. This further supports my theory that this is a well done render.

(That forum post was also trying to find meaning in the number.)

Thats why I posted it. I saw the two plates and thought that was fishy since all the JTs running around and being filmed have different numbers 1-15 on them. I zoomed in over all the photos trying to find something out of place.

I'm really hoping that you would be able to access the bed from the cab without having to step over the tub and bed. If those leaked CAD drawings are legit then it doesn't look good . That was one of the coolest features of the the H2 SUT. This would be so badass!! Not announcing a Diesel Manual was a downer but this will look so great with a lift kit and bigger meats.

It's a downright Chrysler conspiracy. Hidden agenda. Illuminati stuff...

Under Google Images, a search of "GEB 560" brings up lots of Chrysler ad pics with that plate.
