Got my jeep gladiator back in December, best truck/ car I ever own. Doors off top off in the summer. Doors off in the fall, first day of a snow storm we going doors off. The ride is like no other and the staring is perfect, people complain about it being loose I live in Jersey with the Roads are unbearable and it's perfect. If you ever hit a pothole at a decent speed your steering wheel start shaking left to right the Jeep handle it like a champ!

Awesome video. You covered a lot, and I like that you actually showed us basically everything you spoke about. Nice to see someone speak normally and calmly, not these gimmicky guys that just sound like salesmen lol

Actually the Sport with the Max Tow package has the highest towing capacity among the models - not the Overland. Sport Max Tow has a 4:10 gear ratio for better towing. Also, factory trailer brake controller is now FINALLY available. Thanks for the good review.

Great video brother. Not planning on doing any off road so your video really helped. Other videos was making me want to change my mind. Getting mine this weekend!

Thanks for this! I test drove an automatic sport a few months back and then I test drove a manual Mojave. The manual Mojave is what I fell in love with. So obviously they are different, I didn’t feel the drift in the 2021 Mojave like I did the 2020 sport S. Could be that it’s a manual as well...but yeah. I look forward to joining the community! I will be leaving a Hyundai Elantra hatchback...so a big difference.

When Jeep builds a 2 door cab with about 1ft behind the seat, a 392 and a usable bed I’ll definitely buy one.

My wife just purchased a 2021 Jeep Gladiator Overland. Hers came with rubber floor mats - front & back. Also it has a factory brake controller. The steering is also tight. It's definitely not sloppy. It has the stock tires/rims.

For a channel that only has roughly 600 subs, you definitely have one of the best reviews out on the internet. A lot of the other likes/dislikes reviews skip over fine details such as the wheel tightness. Would have never known most of the things you said about the gladiator if it wasn't for you. Thanks, man!

Very helpful. Thank you. I am really wanting to buy a gladiator. I had a Jeep when I was a kid (1974 CJ5) and it was my favorite vehicle I've ever owned. I did a lot of off-roading with it, but I probably will not be doing any more hard-core stuff with with gladiator. Light off-roading for camping, etc. Your review was really helpful. (p.s., "molle is pronounced "molly". I had a bit of trouble figuring out what you were describing... lol)

Great review! I have a 2021 Willy's now for about 7 months and it looks like they improved on nearly every one of these "dislikes" Except maybe the passenger side space. I am loving mine!

Thank you for the video. I bought a billet silver Gladiator Rubicon manual last Saturday. Traded a Silverado RST with the 6.2 for it. Very happy with the vehicle. I am impressed by how tight all the parts are fitted. Feels very solid. I needed a manual so much that I was willing to lose a V8 for it. It sometimes takes ownership over a period of time to find out what one really wants.

Just bought a gladiator Willys and mine came with mats. It's a dealer option. I also got it for 39k, sticker was 53. I'm happy:)

Great review I have a 2022 Gladiator and really like it and I have no steering issues.

[srtamplification]

Great video. I'm getting a Jeep Gladiator on Friday. BTW MOLLE is pronounced Molly. 27 years in the Army and you are the first person I have ever heard say Mole.

[frsantariga]

Thanks for the review.
It helped in my choosing the vehicle.

Have watched a few people recently do 1 year reviews on their Gladiators. Any of them that don't use them for anything but day in and day out vehicles said they would not buy again. Does not surprise me. It has taken some non Jeep owners by surprise and they love it. Others eh..I use mine as a daily driver and for serious off roading. In the end, a Jeep is a Jeep and you have to want to use it as such to love a Jeep.

I would like the option of only a two door with a longer truck bed.

[thaddeuspearson]

Thank you for this video I appreciate it.
I have a 2021 Tacoma pro manual on order coming in April and I was thinking about switching to a gladiator and this is helping me make my decision.

I purchased the 2020 jeep Gladiator Rubicon new back in 2019 and it’s been a wild ride for sure with having the aluminum steering box replaced under warranty to a steel steering box that fixed my death wobble steering problem to the dam start stop battery failure draining my main battery causing me to buy two new main batteries only to discover that after I bypass the start stop eliminating the small battery it finally fixed my battery drain to the purchase of a Tazer mini to shut off all of the annoying features like start stop . I would actually buy another jeep Gladiator because it’s been an adventure for sure and a learning curve that once you master the jeep fuckery it’s ok to own one.. 😊

Brother there is a service bulletin out for steering. You can get steering gearbox changed. It will tighten it up. Google it or get on gladiator forum.
