X2!
That's exactly what that looks like. Makes sense to me being that's usually how soft top rear windows work. Unless you remove it totally. Great observation Jake!Looking at this picture I can’t help but wonder if they rolled up the rear window and have it stowed right at the top of the window and just below the fabric top. See what I circled in yellow, looks shiney to me like plastic rolled up could look like.

The soft top on the JL is too rigid to roll. I realize the JT will have many unique parts, especially with the top being shorter, but I think that shine is just the side of the roll bar and the back of the sport/speaker bar where the sun/shadow hits it at the seams (between plastics/metal). But your idea would solve the window storage issue, as there is no room behind the seats and you wouldn't want it flapping in the bed. Hmmmmm...
I don't see the shiny on the one where the back window is removed (right below it in the original post.) I think is rolled up. I suspect you can do both, though.
Don't let them get together...they may unify and revolt!
I had to find the pictures to show you this. In one video Mark Allen from Jeep was talking about a Sunrider on a Gobi colored Gladiator. As you can see in one of these pictures he is holding a corner section of a rag top in his left hand. And in the other picture you can see that the drivers side rear corner section is missing and you can just barely see that this corner section is still on the Gladiator on the passenger side. And the rear window has been removed.
Media is already getting to drive the JT and it looks like test out towing, etc. There are more pictures like these on Instagram from other sources too.
“Under embargo”, “can’t post reviews till March”, etc... what do they think this thing is, a stealth bomber? Are they afraid the Russians or Chinese are gonna steal the technology?
The embargo is so no media outlet has any unfair advantage by being able to release a story earlier than others. Not everyone can test drive the same day. You let everyone get a drive and embargo release until after the last media team gets the chance.
Better explanation would be to say - what's "larger" are not the Grill, or even the individual vertical-slots; but rather, LOOK CLOSELY at the black grating behind the Grill ! It's THESE "holes' that are Larger - supposedly for Better Air Flow !did anybody else know the grill was bigger than the JL? So does that mean grills aren't interchangable? What about hoods, fenders, bumpers with JL?
hmmmm
That GOBI color looks greenish in that lighting . Looking forward to seeing the New GATOR color on the Gladiator . . . come on JEEP paint up a few for MOAB or sooner ! Please !

I called Jeep about a month ago to ask if that rear window was made of plastic or of glass. Was told it was made of plastic. And I then pressed the guy about glass. He had to put me on hold for about 10 minutes but he finally came back and said that a glass rear window on a rag top would be an option even though this is not shown on the Jeep build site. I guess we will only know for sure if this is good info once dealers will finally be able to order them. I cross fingers for this.
I can’t find the picture right now but there is a good picture out there of a red Gladiator with just the rear window removed and it sure looks like the framework was designed to hold a glass rear window.
