I have gotten 420-440 miles per tank with my gas powered Gladiator. Of course, that was during summer months with the summer blend gasoline. I'm only getting around 360 miles per tank.
Yikes. I barely crack 300 with my stock 6sp JTR.

It’s roughly 440 miles from my place in Raleigh to my parents house in the Atlanta suburbs. in my 3.6l Gladiator I’ve made it in a tank, but it took 20 gallons of gas on a 22 gallon tank. I don’t like pushing it that far.

Congrats, I love mine as well. With 37's I get roughly 340 miles before the idiot light turns as an indicator to refuel.

I'm interested with what will happen this summer when things get really toasty in the desert and I put the diesel through it's paces with some light towing and road trips.

I am down to 22 mpg but then again with 37’s and a large air dam, it is expected!

….and bought a 2022 Eco Diesel! This is the motor they all should come with. I was on my second motor with my 2020 and it started knocking again. It was time for a change for sure.

The only bad thing about the diesel option is less towing capability

But those with the diesel say that the towing is better with less effort.

They are off of a Jeep Sahara. I had them with a set of mounted 35’s as my spares, they look good to me. I kept stuff from my 2020 that I moved over to this one. You don’t realize how much money you’ve spent until you sell you’re old one. ?
I like the wheels too. Think jeep should have offered wheels like that on the Gladiator if the customer wanted. I kept my wheels from my 2016 Wrangler and when I bought my Gladiator, swapped at the dealership and put the plain black rims on the Wrangler. I like the look of mine.

yeah thats what i was afraid of, i hate the silver wheels on the green . aggravating that they wouldnt let me order the black wheels.
Same here I hate them as well. Trying to figure out the most cost effective way of ditching those.

It's been awhile, but I recall reading one of the Jeep engineers mention that the Gladiator's wheels were different from the Wrangler because of the higher tow rating. I'll have to see if I can find that reference.

I remember that also. It was in one of the TFL videos I seen at the early launch events. They interviewed one of the engineers and a similar statement was made about the wheels being different for the Gladiator to add a better payload and/or tow ratings on the Gladiator.
