Bill, I see your ladder there. Its been a while, how have you liked it? Is there any other ladder you wished to try?

Only moved it around the shop to confirm the brakes worked after work performed.....slightly over the tow rating?

If I remember it correctly it was 4150 lbs, 16 ft enclosed trailer towed from Seattle, WA to Atascadero, CA so over 1000 miles. Not a single hiccup.

I like it. It was on my 2020 after my wife ordered it for me as a gift.
I made 2 mods to make it work better on the Gladiator - anyone with a welder and a grinder (even a Dremel) could do.

I put it on my 2022 but did things a little different.
I used my own fasteners to mount it to the tail gate (making it easier to remove and reinstall the mounting plate if needed, or access to the tail gate panel if I had to remove it) This time I used button head stainless screws and rivnuts. Fewer screws, stronger, lower profile compared to the supplied hex head sheet metal screws.

I also did one other simple mod to clear my tonneau cover latches.

I like that I can pull two pins and take it off the mount when I use my truck tent.

They've come out with new designs in the last couple of years, some a bit more fancy, some with other features, but this suits me fine and is easy to use.
