Odd mileage on a new Gladiator on a dealer lot.

I thought it was an awesome deal until I saw the mileage. Too good to be true. Looks like I'll still be ordering.

Best bet. Patience is key. Get what you want without regret later

My Jeep is 6 months old. I took a 3200 mile trip to visit my grandkids and I only have 5600 miles on it right now. I only drive it on the weekends and I have a company vehicle with free gas to drive all week.

SO....
Ask the dealer how does the 3yr / 36,000 mile new car factory warranty works?
You know... because its NEW?

So here is where it gets fucked up. I once inquired about a power wagon at my local dealer. The salesman told me that the owner was using it as a personal vehicle and it has 50k On it. I was like ok cool so were selling it at a discount used?

"No this will be sold at full price because it is a new vehicle"


I'm not sure if it works this way in most states but if a vehicle is used as a loner, or the manger is just strutting around with it. Until that vehicle is sold and titled it is considered a "NEW" vehicle. That is not a new vehicle to me but its a shitty way dealers work the system. At the price they want for that stay far a way. No warranties on a financed car? Nah.

I was under the impression that I'm those cases you actually got the warranty based on the starting mileage then 36k or 3 years more

Pretty sure that’s correct. Years ago we came close to buying a 2 year old Ford Flex that had been a courtesy car for the dealership and was still “new”.

Might be a good lease candidate.

Lol same, gas card and company van. I’ve had my truck for about 10.5 months and I have 3,700 miles lol. That’s after I drove it from Tennessee to Colorado too. I love driving it but I don’t just go driving places for no reason either.

Man i hope mine still looms this good after 170k …im at 73k-ish now

Order one from Gupton and fly down to pick it up. I grew up in KC and worked near Pittsburg for a while before moving south. It’s not much more than a days drive back to where you are and you get to put the first 1k on instead of the stealership.

The 3/36 warranty starts with the date and mileage when it's purchased and driven off the lot. It's very important to make sure the paperwork is correct before signing and driving away.

My Overland had 67 miles on it (12 by me) when purchased. It was one of the first they received, and was being used for the test drives. I would be hesitant to purchase anything 'new' with more than a few hundred miles on it.

I'm considering getting 37s instead of 35s just because I can enjoy the greater investment longer because I won't be wearing them out on the road anytime soon.

I struggled with that choice but I worried about long term wear with the bigger tire so I just went 35’s.

Did I read that right 41 thousand something with that many miles ? something isn't right

"The Cooper Auto Group has been earning your trust since 1946"
How is that going?

The Cooper family has been ran out of more than one town in Oklahoma and Texas.

No way mileage is accurate with this condition - I suspect an electrical gremlin in a new vehicle

Not much of a deal anyway - keep looking
