I have a problem. After 4 days of ownership I am at 1016 miles and am 33 miles from home. I need FCA to have some type of parental controls that will only allow me to use it so many miles a day and shuts down unless I am heading home. It is 3:15 in the morning and I have to work tomorrow at 8am. I was taking my date home and after over two hours of driving I found a trail that led down to a river. She lives 15 minutes from me and we were 40 miles from either of our houses. Pulled out the bluetooth speaker and sat there for two hours. I dont know what is happening to me but this is not who I am. I love my climate controlled lifestyle that is not as important to me as it was pre JT. I have not been on my laptop since I got this and I haven't turned on the tv. I have 9 in my house. I haven't even been on social media hardly at all. I think FCA needs to have some type of counseling or group therapy classes or at least a disclaimer that this could possibly happen.

Second picture river and third is where I am typing this message and I actually have no idea where the hell I am but it doesn't seem to matter.

Anyone else have similar symptoms or issues.

That's not actually a problem bud. Just saying.

A problem is sitting up all night wishing you were in your jeep but you went sold off your JK in anticipation of JT and now you have no jeep and freaking Hyundai. That's a problem

Welcome to the addiction. I always find it amusing on Jeep ads on FB or reviews on other websites that there's always those folks who comment, "But most people will never take their SUV off the pavement unless their driveway is gravel!" Do it once with a Gladiator (or Wrangler) and most people will be hooked.

I hated jeeps 4 months ago then Enterprise messed up my F-150 rental and all they had was something called a Sahara. It was supposed to be a 3 day rental until I removed the doors. Then it turned into a $4,400 and a JTR that was ordered. 8 weeks of over $500 a week and they were forcing me to give the JK back. I even tried to buy her but they wouldnt sell her. I went a month without my wind therapy until Punkin arrived. Ebony the first jeep I loved 100% changed and saved my live by snapping me out of what I didnt even realize was the lowest point in my life and last night because of punkin my life just got flipped 180 again but I think I am being steered in the right direction. Who knows god might even drive a silver gladiator. LOL

The only problem I see in any of those pics is that you need to find something else to listen to. Either go to a rock/metal station or find some "real" country music. Welcome to the family.

The volume was all the way down or that song would have been skipped but I am sure you would hate my regular music of choice even more. LOL

There is a rap song which has these lines in it and it seems arrogant but appropriate. "I do what I want, I do what you don't. I got what you want, I got what you don't." I think that is the attitude Punkin has.

As a non-jeep person biding his time to order, I really appreciate your story.

Married with kids so I won't be taking dates on late night romps but the only interest I have in this over priced, horrible decision, riddled with potential or actual problems, mid size truck is the top off, doors off idea of the unknown and adventure that I might experience and share with my boys and the wife.

Unbeknownst to you, you've done more than this entire forum to sell me on the idea and solidify that I'll be making a purchase sooner than later.

Carry on, carry on.

I'm with you! I went from a badass JKU, 3 1/2" lift, 37's, aluminum high fenders, etc.... to a VW BEETLE! for the love of God man, I've got to get my JT soon, this thing is sucking the MOJO FROM ME!

Let me get this straight.
You are out in the middle of nowhere. YOU ARE WITH YOUR DATE. You are listening to tunes on your BT speaker. And you are posting a thread on the Gladiator forum? You do have a problem, lol!
