Now the question in everyone's head. What would you be willing to give up or pay additional for if the same color M/T model showed up in your area?....

I’m tempted to cancel my order and go pick up the granite rubicon.

Jake,

Yeah, you aren't too far away! Go drive it for all of us and take pics. I played Ice Hockey in Brewster and Yonkers years ago in college, so I know the area. Ahhhh, I miss the "good ole days"!

Jake,

Yes, drinking beer and playing hockey (and sometimes going to class) was a great period in my life.

I'm about 24 minutes southeast of where the Gladiators are built!

Hi,

I was a bit shocked to see that a nearby dealership had a Gladiator with a manual transmission on their lot. Of course, I had to check it out. :)

To no surprise, the manual gladiator drove the same as a JL Wrangler with a manual. I'm a HUGE fan of the manual transmission within the JL so this is awesome. :rock: ....smooth like butter....

This one was pretty barebones, so I'm not interested in it. I'd prefer a Rubi with a manual.

I’m officially in talks with my dealer about just taking a black auto on the lot instead of waiting who knows how much longer on my manual Granite Crystal grey one. I just don’t want to miss any more of the summer and the auto is very nice for what it is.

Dealer text today that the Gladiator is in I status today, was in paint yesterday. Pretty sure it still has a few body vendor visits left. Dealer thinks it will be here first week of August.

Ordered 5/6. Red Rubicon Premium Soft Top with pretty much everything but the trail cam and smokers group.
