Rapid Heater?

[Waffen6]

Do Gladiators have rapid heaters? Its not real cold in Ohio (about 50 degrees) but went out to leave and literally got 2 blocks down the road and vents are blowing out hot air. Never had a vehicle blow hot air that fast. Havnt driven my 22 Gladiator gas engine in 3 days so it wasnt still warm from last time lol.

They're not advertised as rapid heating, but they do warm up fairly quickly.

Same here. Less than or right around a minute and there's warm air blowing out of the vents.

Modern engines have cooling systems that are designed for very quick warm-up. It is done for emissions and efficiency purposes. My 21 JTM warms up very quickly, even quicker than my 2014 JK.

Mine does too. Then again, so did my '08 GC Overland (Hemi) and my '11 GC Overland (Hemi). I always wondered if there was some sort of electrical heating system in the HVAC to do that but, only on the higher end trim levels ?

Guess I know differently now
