2024 Jeep Gladiator Mojave
๐Ÿป from Miami, Florida.

Drove to Bradenton, Florida to trade in my 2019 Ranger for my first Jeep, a 2024 Mojave. The Ranger served me well, trading her in with 87k miles. She took me as far as Cape Flattery, Washington just a few months ago. With all the current incentives I figured it was my best opportunity to get into a Jeep. While I did not have a preference between the Rubicon or Mojave(though the Mojave hood always gave it the edge) I knew my Jeep had to be blue. Success!

Below are a couple photos of the Gladiator and the Ranger Iโ€™m coming from.

2024 Gladiator Rubicon
Occupation

I just traded in my 2013 JK Sahara for a 2024 JT Rubicon. With the deals they have going on it was hard not to make the upgrade. After trade in and discounts I ended up paying just over 40k. We felt like we got a decent deal. Iโ€™m really enjoying the difference in ride quality and the features of the JT.
Iโ€™m in central Indiana. I had the AEV 2.5โ€ lift with Mikey Thompson wheels and 33โ€ KO2โ€™s. on the JK Iโ€™m still debating on what I want to do with the JT if anything for a while

Hey all,

My first ever Jeep. Weโ€™ve thought about adding a Jeep into our collection, but it came sooner than later.

Unfortunately, we were in a major head on collision accident (we are all okay) in my Tundra (other driver crossed double yellow and hit front DS).

Least to say, the Tundra got totaled by insurance and we hunted for another family vehicle which ended up being a Gladiator Rubicon.

Luckily the 20% off deal was still going on and on top of that, we got another 9k from the dealer discount so Iโ€™d say we got the JT for a very good price.

My 2 little boys named it Snowball since we drove down to VA just recently during the snow storm to pick it up.

We will most likely be using this for easy off road trails, fishing and camping, and just exploring.

Still learning a lot about the JT, but so far we like it a lot.

If there are any thing you guys suggest to be aware of for a first time Jeep owner, Iโ€™d appreciate all the inputs!

Quick introduction. New to the forum but not new to Gladiators, as both my sons have Gladiators that I have modified. I have a nice shop, so most of the work is done in my shop. Installed Rock Krawler X factor 3 inch lifts with 4 link rear, swapped 4.10 gears to 5:38 in oldest sonโ€™s Gladiator, and lots of mods between these two extremes.

I have a 2014 Rubicon 4 door with lots of the same mods, and have been on a ton of the Badge of Honor trails and lots of trails not on the list. We tow this behind an Adventure Motorhome, and with retirement starting in 8 weeks, coupled with the 30% discounts, I decided to switch to a Gladiator since I often have my KTM 690 Enduro R, the e-bikes and kayaks. The Gladiator will just make hauling all this adventure gear easier. We are on our winter trip, so found the right Gladiator Rubicon in Dallas, bought it last week and it is being shipped to our place in Washington where it will wait for our return the end of March. I didnโ€™t want to risk the 30% discounts going away before we got home.

Since we are into adventures, my Gladiator will get much the same treatment as the ones installed on sons rigs, but wonโ€™t swap to 5:38 gears since. RK lift, 37 tires, etc.

I guess I should also mention that I have a 1947 Flat Fender that I converted into a truck by stretching the frame, v6, 4 speed, PS, PB, etc, so I am no stranger to modifications.

New member, bought my 21 gladiator overland about a month ago, I've owned some form of jeep for the last 35 yrs, this is number 9. Installed a teraflex 1.5 leveling kit and swapped out the E rated 33s for C rated 35s and added a few other mods.
