Just picked up mine last night. The power is awesome. We'll see how she does from a reliability standpoint. The way the math fell I got what I paid for my JL two years ago (and 26,000 miles -- granted I did leave about $4k in mods on it including tires, though they had 20k on em), and $5k of the $63k sticker. Not bad.

I do have some concerns about the payload capacity, but I think it'll be close and not over, even with the RTT, etc.

I've had a 2015 Grand Cherokee Ecodiesel since new, now with 72,000+ miles. I've had only 2 minor repairs to it, both times it was sensors on the DPF.

I liked it "well enough" to buy a new 2021 JT Ecodiesel.

Better troll over to this full review - a very different story than their September initial review

https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/...l-overview-12-8-2020-is-scary-not-good.37849/
makes me winder what issues they have or what politics have to play here. That’s complete crap. “Scary” lmao. There’s a few guys on YouTube who addressed it who actually have one as well as more people daily doing towing tests on them and no one except these guys have had anything remotely close to a scary experience.
