Hello everyone, the time is nearing where I'll be ordering my Gladiator! I'll be ordering through Gupton thanks to all of the feedback and help from this forum. What I'm struggling with is choosing between the base Willys and the Sport Altitude package. Part of me really wants to "K.I.S.S." like my current Jeep JK with manual windows and locks as I feel it'll be more dependable in the long run. But then the other part of me kind of wants the convenience of electronic windows and locks due to it being a 4 door.
Do any of you have any input on the electronic reliability between the base trim level vs others? I've read about many of the auxiliary battery issues around here and wonder if all of the electronic nanny stuff associated with the electric windows/locks/mirrors/automatic transmission/auto park/etc. is associated with that compared to the base sport with manual everything. I've also read about some issues with the automatic climate control, but haven't heard about any issues with the standard climate control (i.e. not automatic).
I know this is more of a personal decision, but I've been going back and forth for quite a while trying to decide which trim package I should get. Plus the new Sport Altitude package seems to be a winner in the looks and value department.
Thanks in advance for any replies.
