Gladiator too big?? Perhaps the Comanche is the solution?

It wouldn’t look bad with the patriot front on it if they were looking to cannibalize an existing model.

It would be very easy for Jeep to make smaller versions of the Gladiator.

That would be cool. Slightly longer bed and the proportions would be perfect.

I wouldn't change the size of the Beloved Gladiator it is close to perfect. Maybe take a little off the roof Hight, but that is it. Easy to drive and park...The next class of pickups on the smaller size just don't look right, sizes like Santa Cruz, Maverick, Ridge-Runner, not for me personally.

This would make more sense on a Compass platform than a Renegade from a production standpoint.

Also, if it was on a Compass platform, it would give them a good opportunity to give it a custom front clip that looked like a refreshed XJ and differentiate it from the Compass blandness. It would have to be hard top only as well to differentiate it from the gladiator (and to appease the people who scoff at interior noise).

If they would put in the effort, it would sell.

I kind of like it… not as much as i like the original and def not as much as i like the gladiator so its not necessarily for me but when my kids come of age maybe… they would have to ditch the front end, make sure the bed is big enough to fit a dirt bike, make sure it could tow atleast a small boat or jetski and have it nicely loaded in the low $20k range
