Excited New Gladiator Owner

[starrskream]

Congrats ?
This site is pretty great. Tons of knowledge and friendly people.

I’ve wanted a gladiator for years. Finally did it, the price was right.
I feel like I’m driving a tank. Every time I get in I feel like I’m ready for an adventure.
move caught myself getting out and going “weird, it felt bigger than it looks when I was driving it.”

Welcome to JEEP ownership! Been ducked ?yet?

welcome, and don’t forget the dirty pictures, and topless. ;-)

we have a family friend that took her Jeep out wheeling over lunch, without the top on it, and saw some water expecting it to be maybe an inch or two deep; she had muddy water splashed up and over the windshield, all over the work clothes ( she was in sales ) and all over the dash and interior.

your mission, should you accept it, is to go create a fun memory that will last for years.

Woo! Best model (willys) though I may be a bit biased haha.

The only other "edition" I was interested in. I got a Freedom, but now I see they have "beefed" up the Willy's for 24 with a rear locker (like a Mojave), and some other things like Rubicon tires if I'm not mistaken... FOR future buyers, I'd start there looking personally. I would have loved to have that rear locker.

source tractionlife
" Meanwhile, the Gladiator Willys trim now has extra off-roading features as standard, namely a Tru-Lok rear-axle locker and an Off-road+ mode that adjusts throttle, transmission shift points, and traction control for best performance on speed at sand or during low-speed rock crawling. It also enables the rear axle to be locked in 4HI. "

Sweet truck! Love the black grill and the white letter tires! ?

I am 3 months in on my lifted Sport S. Love this thing! Been out once doing some mild wheeling and it was a blast.

Welcome to the group! If you plan to do many mods, you should go ahead and start a “build thread” to document everything in. I did! Added a wish list in the initial post and go back and mark them completed as I do them.

Thanks for the tip, mods will be start soon ?

Cool Willys, every exit out your front door is an invitation to a Gladdy excursion. We know those are the Best around.

6 months in and I've done every "mod" myself. Still can't believe I've been missing out all these years
