Ordered another gladiator (8k MSRP increase)

[Mvitch]

Same build as last time (+ headliner) = ~8k increase in MSRP. Seems wild for a Jeep to have a 75k MSRP. Have 3 to 4 months to decide whether or not to get back in a Diesel gladiator and check out the new Tundra. Which is a little big(wide) for Colorado trails and finding parking spots in town (8” longer than Suburban), but pretty smooth driving around town and cruising on highways. Would like to get another diesel Jeep before they go away…

Well, good news for holding value on our existing “healthy” vehicles. Hoping your insurance has vehicle replacement features as mine does

I disagree. According to KBB Tundra is 1st, Gladiator is a 10th. I suspect if you say Wrangler, that might have more value.

How can you have a 5 yr resale value on a truck thats been out for a year? They should be looking at the 2017s.

FCA bought My 22 JTRD back.... paid like 59k for it, almost every bell and whistle.... ordered a 23 to replace it, identicle jeep but color, 62k with employee discount

Leather, all the groups but smoker. Color fenders and top

I bought/ordered for those same features......topless/doorless. But they're honestly getting to be way over priced for those features.

It's almost to the point it would be cheaper to buy a new ZR2 Colorado and with money saved buy a TJ with a 4.0 and 5spd and still be ahead over a loaded JTRD.

Someone will be along to tell us how great it is that jeeps are overpriced

Got anymore employee pricing codes? Unfortunately, 62K for fully loaded JTRD is now a great price.

Lol, no just mine.... it's a good price if it includes what I ordered... no ACC or Fox shocks will be an issue

Yeah. Hoping they get that figured out before mine is built. Helped ease the pain that I had car replacement on insurance and got 83k for payout on totaled gladiator.

For 75k you can pretty much get a raptor with 37’s from factory and a real motor.

Dude you just had me on the ford website so fast…. This is a serious misconception.
If you want an eco boost raptor it starts around 76k…. Add the real motor and it’s a $30k increase……. So your still looking around $100-110k for the raptor.

Youre talking about the R. And you can get eco-boost raptor for msrp. Id rather have a fullsize if im being forced to pay close to 70 for a gladiator.

Yes I was talking about the Raptor Raptor…. I was confused, guess I never realized they started putting ecoboosts in the “raptor”…???

They'd sell a lot more with a 10k price cut.

Would they though? $45K for my JTR (the MSRP was $55K) would still be asinine for what it is.

It’s an absolute blast, I’m glad I got it, and I see me holding onto it for a while, but even at $10K off, like Wranglers…it’s an overpriced four wheeler/big kid toy.

Buy what you want though OP. My other finalist was a Subaru Outback Wilderness. ?

Ya dealer closest to me adds 10k to the MSRP... screw that BS, msrp is too high aleady.....
