I find myself just staring at my Gladiator, especially now that it has been lifted. And I am finding that I am not the only one, I get a lot of questions and looks with the Gladiator.

That's a good looking Sport. Tastefully done.

The whole forum is about Rubicon....... it's all that counts. (or sport I guess)
It would be interesting to see the breakdown of sport, overland, rubicon's sold. By ordered vs off the lot.

That's how it seems over on the JL Wrangler forum. Gave me an inferiority complex since I owned a Sahara jL therefore I bought a JT Rubicon to avoid it happening again on this forum, lol! In all seriousness, I've seen some really nice JT Sport builds as well as JT Overland builds on here.

I love my Overland. Actually, the other day, I noticed that the town I live in in Illinois is full of Saharas. So, I figure my Overland fits right in there. LOL!

At the risk of offending a few -
I have had a big interest in psychology over the years.
I think that you'll find a fair difference between the numbers sold vs. the numbers represented here.

I propose if you have a split - Sport/Overland/Rublcon as far as sales that's 35/25/40,
you'll have a forum split that's more 40/5/55 Sport S/Overland/Rubicon
- just grabbing numbers to illustrate a point....
It's social media.........

...... may not be fakebook, but it's still about what's more capable and how much it's modified (not necessarily the same as how WELL it's modified)
More bling is obviously better.
Comfort is for wimps. (and old farts) (had to add that because as I age, I don't handle the stresses and things I used to - that's why I LOVE the Gladiator seats - they feel great on my back!)

I get part of my idea on how things seem by pulling from my own tendencies. I don't leave myself out of the mix.

But in the end - I really enjoy seeing some of the very well done, nicely appointed and capable rides out there. There's some really neat ideas where people have really thought things through and aren't just tossing money at the beast to make it taller and badder.

I like what Trauma PA said..... (and that's another field of service in a way, too - some of us would be dead if not for them)

Personally, I like seeing all of the JT's! I don't care which trim it is, they are all cool to me! I enjoy seeing others mod's, even tho I'm not really into that. But I still love to see others. This thread is about the enjoyment we get just by looking at our JT's, and I certainly do! And it appears everyone here does too, going by the posts and what everyone says. I had intended to get an Overland because I liked the leather looking dash. But my trades were worth enough, that I started building till I reached the trade value! Just so happened to be a Rubicon. But y'all keep posting your rides, and I for one will keep looking with a big smile on my goofy face!

I really like the leather look to the dash - that's for sure luxury lol. How many other people have a leather type dash in their trucks? Does Ford do that? Chebbie? Tesla?
Actually I looked at the other levels and ordered Overland based on what my wife knew about me - and how we wanted something we could drive across the country, who knows, maybe up to Alaska some day.... and was pleasantly surprised by how the dash looked.
Look? Heck - I find myself feeling the dash - pretty sick, eh? Go sit in it and feel the dash?

Jeeps don't talk back, they're just four-wheeled friends now........

Change the words around a bit - yeah, it fits........

I’m guilty... I was impressed by the amount of Rubicon pictures in this thread.

But I think I have the best conclusion:

«Rubicon owners are the fastest on the camera’ shutter button!»

@htremper you knocked that person clean off their bike.
I had to look twice as at first I thought he was posting an accident scene, or perhaps he had a front mount bike rack, which gives me an idea - I have a receiver mount bike rack, now I could put it on either end. Naw, I'd have to wipe the huge Iowa bugs off the bikes, then.
The more I see, the more I like the "deflectors" on these.
