Practical and slightly less practical :)

Both soft tops because driving is better with the top down. I think the diesel rubicon gets better gas mileage though haha.

I do miss the manual transmission in the s2000 during winters, but the Jeep is infinitely more fun than the 14' Sierra I had before it.
like that S2000!! I‘ve got a 2002 myself. Blast of a car!!

I too have a couple S2000s to compliment my Mojave. I drive the Gladiator a couple times a week, and the S2000s a couple times a month.

Three convertibles. Three manual transmissions.

mmmmmmm that CR ?, both look spotless! Mine is an 02 with 42000 miles. Bought it two years ago now with only 32k before they started rocketing up faster in price than they rev to redline! Not too concerned about mileage as it's never leaving my possession but wanted to start with low miles as it was the closest I'd get to being able to buy one new.

Damn I am trying to get on the level of everyone else in this thread at some point in life. Current complement is a Chevy Suburban Premier aka the Kid Hauler. That’ll get traded in for a new Wrangler when the kids are a little older.

Ohhhhh, I get it! We’re not too far off, my friend. My CR has 36k miles and the Base has 18k miles. Both are stock and paint corrected. The Base is 100% film wrapped and ceramic coated. Shows as new off the factory line.

Both my wife and I have Mazda Cx-5's. Super reliable, awd (we live in New england) awesome MPG, and very comfortable for long hauls to work. And they are almost.... if not half the price of a gladiator. But still, gladiator is worth every penny. ???? I got into these vehicle (mazda) from other co workers reccomendation due to the mileage they are putting on them... lasting almost 300k with general maintenance. We are at 70k and 90k going strong! ?. But for fun... gladiator all day and night, rain fog snow etc... love it. Jeep life for me. ☠?‍☠

2021 Jeep Gladiator Mojave Edition
The Gladiator is my fourth vehicle but I like to think that I'm pairing it with my track-focused Miata because (1) they both have a whimsical quality to them that's unique and full of character, (2) juxtapose nicely -- tough vs. nimble, and (3) I'm a sucker for top-down driving. The combo looks amazing especially when I'm towing the Miata to the track with my Gladiator :)

I have a diesel, stock suspension sport s gladiator for long trips and a 6mt lifted LJ for around town. To me, the TJ/LJ is nearly the perfect second vehicle. Bonus is that I can flat tow the LJ with the JT and, in the event of an emergency breakdown, I could reverse the setup to limp the JT to a garage.

I have a rubicon gladiator that I drive for fun, but my work beater is a 2010 Corolla that I picked up with 118k and for 3,500 bucks. It gets good mileage and I don’t worry about the rock salt with it here in Pennsylvania.

Long box f-350 and a gls450 , because the jeep box is too small.And the mercedes is nice for road trips and groceries. The jt goes to the beach and gets pulled behind the monaco 45. Best of all worlds.

The correct answer is a Wrangler, obviously. It's all the "party in the front" of a Gladiator without any of that "business in the back" nonsense.

Funny you say that, because after getting a Gladiator I've kind of wanted a 2dr Wrangler without any top and the half doors, and just always keep it in the garage for weekend drives

BX2380, gets the work done, fun, and can be towed by the JT.

Reality is my main vehicle is a Ford Transit, the JTR is my toy, the Kubota is second to that.
