2020 Jeep Gladiator: First Drive

It took 15 years for FCA to perfect its Jeep Wrangler-based pickup truck, inaugurated by the JK-based concept in 2005. Finally, the production 2020 Jeep Gladiator arrives with all its conceptual imperfections ironed out, and on the advanced JL Wrangler’s platform underneath. But don't call it a Wrangler with a bed.

Lack of rear leg room? You shouldn’t be doing reviews man. Leg room in the gladiator is class leading.

Cramped rear leg room??? Check the numbers. Everyone else is reporting it having the MOST rear leg room in the segment.

Great It would sell well in New Zealand. Thumbs up.

The rear leg room is actually 2nd best in class
Edit: may actually be Best in class

I got my GMC Canyon for $22k after a $7k discount 2 years ago. Now I'm just gonna hold on to my GMC till the Bronco comes out. This Gladiator is just too clunky looking and doesn't have enough of that retro cool factor that is worth my hard earn cash.

That was deep mud?? That was "seriously rough terrain"? You need to shine up your penny loafers and go back to your desk job, dude!
Am a Jeep guy through and through but when a city slicker tries to do a review? The Jeep wins but you failed!
