[Oilburner]

Still only believe it when I see it, but it seems the chances aren't 'Zero' LOL

If they do the 5.7, I hope they combine it with the new D60 from Dana.

Of course I'd love it with a manual that can handle the HP/TQ, but that will never happen.

Latest TK’s Garage has him saying that the 5.7 Hemi will be offered in the Gladiator in 2026!
Go to about 1:20 if you just want the short version.

So are the Hybrid and v8 expected in 2026 now?

Everything is expected in 2026, because nothing about 2026 can be disproven yet.

Thoughts on Easter Jeep doing some sort of reveal?

Big announcement coming any day now boys!

Plant is already tooling up for 26!

That will sell a few more and lead to some trade ins and a few new buyers, but they need more than that in the long run and the horrible gas mileage sure isn't going to get better with a 5.7 in it but the fun factor might at that...

The 3.6 is a good match for most people for a Gladiator. But that Hemi Rumble and torque is sure tempting...IF they can keep the cost halfway reasonable. Considering they have been building 5.7's forever, they got the R and D costs back already. Keep the price down.

AND, my age old gripe, let people buy as an option full time four wheel drive in regular trims again. At least make limited slip standard but auto 4WD is NOT a luxury where I live.

PLEASE. I got mine in a Freedom edition in 23 but after that, you gotta go either X versions to get it. I could trade if I could get it in something less than an X.

Jeep, you need to recognize that the people that need it the most live in the same places you sell the most Jeeps like up here in Montana or Colorado. Our two month shoulder seasons with a mile of clean pavement then a half mile of ice to slush will sell it.

Get with it, it's also nice for hydroplaning on the flats.

I will buy one immediately if the 5.7 happens. I’d love a 41 with the 5.7.

I wouldn't fully discount the idea of a 5.7 JT, Ram has been pretty lax about keeping it hidden that they're bringing the 5.7 back to the 1500 and there are quite a few sources saying there may be a 6.4 1500 option in 26.

I fully discount it.

I will reiterate again, the Hemi is never, ever coming to anything that didn't already get it. Ever.

My sources have confirmed

Mods, please close the thread, the discussion appears to have its solution.

Nah, TK Garage said so, let's leave it open forever to see how it never happens and just keep reminding people.

Outstanding trolling. 10/10.

I agree with you. The real indicator would be if we see any news on the wrangler getting it first. We are the ugly step kid to the wrangler as you can tell by all the options they get from factory which includes xtreme recon, 4:56/4:88 gears,air compressor, amor lite flooring amonst other things. We will see
