Just got back from picking up my new ordered 2023 diesel Rubi Gladiator.
Overall, a great experience at Gupton Motors.

We got 28 mpg on the 800 mile trip home, made a four day trip out of it and stopped a few places (Nashville, Memphis, Tunica Ms,) on the way home.

My msrp+doc fee+temp tag was $71,754 (including the destination fee).

My total price out the door was $61,425.

So all in all, I got about 14% off msrp. When I asked about the advertised 15% off deal, they said per my residence zip code I could only qualify for 10% off msrp so their original quoted deal was better, and we went with that.

I still have to pay sales tax to Texas of 6.25% once I register it here in Texas.

Traded in my 2016 Wrangler with 85k miles on it, they gave me 18k trade-in.

Drives great.

Congratulation! I went to Utah to grab my deal and regged it with my Cousin to get the full discount.

I changed my oil at 795 miles and found some gray silicone and very normal metal chards since this is break in. I have a dealer I get a little discount with and bought the the 5W-40 Mopar Oil and Mopar filters on line from BAM or World Parts Direct. They sell knock offs on ebay and Amazon but no way I'd put one in.

I’ve bought 2 JTRD’s from Gupton, cannot recommend enough. Well worth the 1100 mi and a nice break-in for the jeeps. 2nd one they even picked me up from the airport, it’s the way all dealer experiences should be.

No experience with this dealer but that is how it should be. I have a great dealer in Laramie,Wy Johnsons I hoghly recommend Dennis and the crew over there.!!
