Gladiator at Vancouver BC car show

[Gobistick]

Went to the Vancouver International Auto Show after work yesterday. There were two JT's on display. A red manual Rubicon on a turntable with the doors removed and a small quad in the back. Pointed skyward on some fake rocks surrounded by fake ferns. No touch!

The other JT was a silver Overland that was wide open for inspection. It was an auto. Very comfortable for me at 6'1" and well on the wrong side of 230. Rear seats were pretty comfortable for shortish runs and have adequate leg room IMHO. I got the VIN.

Yes it's a thing, the other jeeps were the same.

Auto shows have the vehicle hooked up to 120 running under the floor. You can see the cables running up from under the vehicle.

Ok, so here's a couple of photos of the Rubicon that was on display in Vancouver. We've seen lots of good photos of Red Rubies and I couldn't climb on for a VIN shot of this one. Nevertheless here it is for the red fans.

Wow thanks Gobistick. This is now the first time that I have ever seen the bed of a Gladiator without the trail rail system on it. And from looking at that picture it sure looks to me like any and every aftermarket hard tonneau cover company would easily be able to mount their hard tonneau cover without needing the factory trail rail system. At least that’s how it looks to me. Thanks much for that great picture.

Didn't realize how big the glass is on that back window.

I think it comes out and stores in an optional bag. Much like the mid-gate (rear) window on the avalanche. This is part of the "open air" experience.
