Anyone else get low key trolled or I should say attempted trolled when parking your Gladiator?
I like to park a bit away and walk, because people suck. But I always put my truck in one space and usually one that lets people only park on one side. My truck attracts a lot of people with trucks that feel they need to park RIGHT by me. Usually it is a TACO or a 4 Runner. This guy took up multiple spaces.... I now have no regrets about missing out on a z71 Colorado. No comparison to my Sport S.

Haha I was at Lowes recently and someone in a fullsize Ford truck did that near where I decided to park (which was right by the cart return). As I was leaving I saw the driver about to get inside it and it was one of my former teachers. Either he took up the extra side space so he could get in and out easier with the full-size doors (he would be in his 70's) or he's one of those people who feels they have to take up 2 spaces. But it's funny you posted this because I did see someone had parked their Colorado like this. Centered it on 4 spaces.

When I drive my Cummins anywhere and park it, same thing happens. Some uneducated hick with a POS truck that’s got a cheap lift & bald mud tires always has to park right beside me to show off their tard pride as if they’re trying to impress me with their POS truck. Starting to notice the same with the JTR, too.

Not just no, but hell no. Truck nuts are for low-IQ trash. But it does have some serious balls under the hood... :like:

I'm with you, man. I have a few buddies that are master mechanics that fab some things that put all the youtubers to shame. We get lots of poorly lifted things out here...just like we get lots of poorly lowered things. Nothing makes me avoid more than a car on cut springs or a poorly lifted truck.

All the time. I park way out in the areas where there are like 20 empty parking spots or more and almost every time I come back someone has parked their vehicle right next to my truck. Ticks me off. I park out there so no one will dent up my door like on my other trucks and there are empty spots but gotta be one or more that have to park by me. My wife thought I was kidding until a few times she was with me and was just shaking her head. I will say I get a lot of jeeps park by me also.

I run Rock Hard sliders now. Discourages door dings as much as deals with rock damage.

They provide a good step? Like the look, like the protection, but also need a proper place for my wife and kids to put a foot to get in. Mojave is a lot taller than I thought it’d be.

My mother is 70 and 5ft 2. She liked them. You may want to put grip tape on them. They are powder coated and a bit slick on a snowy day. I see you are in Texas....no snow. You can get the angle up or down. I went with the up.

They are heavy. Not cheap Chinese garbage. Made in America. Some people had trouble with the install due to red loctite on the front Jeep body mounts. But go slow and do it correctly.

I was eating lunch in my LJ, when a guy in a Honda with a fart can muffler and loud stereo parked beside me. He slammed his door into my Jeep as he got out. He was startled when he saw me laughing in my seat. Then he saw his bent door from my sliders.

I've got nFab nerf steps, and noticed the same thing. Any car and many trucks are gonna get a rude surprise if they let their door fly open.
