Jeep Gladiator Mojave - 2021
So I just bought a new Gladiator Mojave for my daughter for her birthday. I thought it would be perfect for her. However, the first time she got in to drive, it was clear there is a MAJOR design defect in the seat height of this model.

See attached picture. How the heck does Jeep expect my very wonderful daughter to see anything happening on the road?!

Mine were standing up in my lap at about that age. Takes care of the vision issue, but she'll need a little help with the peddles. :)

I really expected this to be another “tH3 k3Y f0B 15 tO0 b1G 4nD 0p3n5 1N mY p0cK3t” threads, but I must agree… what were they thinking?

Watch it! In 1978 I was at work and my 6 year old got in my pickup with the three on the tree shifter, shifted in to neutral and steered in to a oak tree. Walked in to her bed room and played until I came home. Did not know how my truck hit a tree.
