I wondered if it was a gas. A lot of them have been going through lately.

Dude! We might as well be twins! Except for the color that’s my build! I did add the smoker‘s package in anticipation of utilizing various auto related powered devices . Otherwise it’s identical.

You are a man of good taste and some sense, obviously! ? Are you also irritated at having silver wheels forced upon you? ?. Fortunately, I have a buddy with a WIllys who is upgrading and gifting me those black beauties.

Absolutely sir. However like most new Jeep owners, the tires & wheels are the first things to mod/replace.
So…, 2 years ago I got my wife a Sahara Wrangler. The wheels were really nice for stock. I always thought that the Gladiator could pull them off rather nicely. I keep them after completely upgrading her wheel and tire package. I‘m looking at running 295/70/18’s on the Gladiator within a week (if not the first day) of getting it home. ??

Occupation

Immediately after taking possession its going in for BDS lift with Fox stabilizer and Control arms, 37x12.50 AT's, and a set of 18" wheels (yet to decide but I liked the Black Rhino Overland's that I had on my Overland 3.6L).

I just ordered the same except white w/saddle leather seats. Wondering how long it will take. Dealer told me average was between 8-12 weeks. I hope sooner. Now I remember how I used to feel waiting for Christmas when I was a child.

I love the look of the bigger tires and wheels, at least 33s, but for towing our TT, Im sticking with boring stock tires. Someday, I'll put something more fun on the spare wheels for romping. I'm compensating with a retro graphics package.

I understand completely In regards to the towing limitations. That is why I plan on keeping my 20 year old 3/4 ton Avalanche.
My retirement plan involves owning an Airstream and lots of back and forth across this great country of ours.
My wife would prefer I sell my truck once I get the Gladiator. It’s actually one of the very few disagreements we’ve ever had. However at this point the only thing my old truck is costing me is gas, insurance, and very basic maintenance costs .

Upgraded to the JT for towing. Not a fan of full size for DD, we're holding on to my 08 Ridgeline for my son. So for two years, it'll serve for trash runs and airport parking. ?

We currently have (5) vehicles…, and an existing parking problem. Go figure…
I’m in the process of clearing the garage to put my C10 in. Oldest daughter will be going off to college this fall so that should clear up some space as well.
The wife and I actually had a “discussion” about keeping v/s getting rid of my 3/4 ton this afternoon. Let’s just say we are at an :” Agree to Disagree “ situation .
