I just to my 2021 Gladiator on a 5000 mile journey through the desert and Colorado. Awesome trip. I was very impressed with the Jeep. Preformed Awesome in the desert and mountains. 95mph heading into Vegas with no wiggle. Up and down mountain roads with good handling.
We started in Port Aransas Texas and made many stops in the 2 week trip. Milage was 16.6, buy I did not buy it to be efficient, I bought it to be a Jeep.
I hope everyone else has a great ride in their Gladiator also.

Stood on the corner in Winslow AZ
