Anybody gonna take the plunge and order one when available? My fiancé would def leave me, but if I won the lotto I’d be all over it. I’d imagine it’ll be the same bumpers that were debuted for the JL.

What is the AEV turn key? Do you have inside info on a aftermarket version that will be announced? I am planning on a few aftermarket parts and AEV is always a consideration when buying Jeep parts, but that doesn’t sound like your question.

I’m assuming they are going to offer an upfitted gladiator just like they will for the JLs and they did for the JKs. I’d imagine that’s gonna push 70k plus tho. A lot cheaper than the brute tho haha

So they offered an AEV tricked out JK that you could buy direct from FCA?

Or were they dealer installed parts?

You could buy the jeep from the dealer yourself (or with the assistance of AEV for non-locals) and then have AEV pimp your ride. They had a few different levels of awesomeness to choose from.

Ahhh!, I'd probably like to cherry pick my parts. AEV may make some cool shit, but they don't have the best fenders, bumpers, wheels, lights, ect, ect.

I bought Husky front mats, weathertech center mats, and a Lloyds matt for the cargo area of our Pacifica. lol.

You could have MTV Pimp My Ride pimp your Pacifica with some custom badges. Badges? We don't need no stinking badges.

Wow, pretty darned proud of their farkles, aren’t they? Wonder how much of that $$$$$ actually goes toward this line item:

  • AEV Badging

I’m guessing that’s their highest margin item ;-)
for $8-12,000 I could buy a lot of aftermarket crap for my JT.

Like I said if I won the lotto I’d be all over it. It’s a neat company with a very cool owner. If you have Instagram look him up @aevdave
