I have been running the 3.6 Pentastar in multiple rigs the past 10+ years - ZERO issues with any of them. ZERO. They are a truly solid NA V6.

Sorry to hear about your dad. My prayers for you and your family during this difficult time.

Great video Jason, you should be a spokesman for Jeep, you have been a great ambassador for this vehicle.

[johndittig]

Thoughts and prayers for your dad. Be safe traveling.

Great review/update Jason. Thanks. I have 1800 miles on my ‘24. Such a great truck. Came from a Tundra that was too big for what I like to do. The gladiator is so much more comfortable to drive.

Sorry about your dad. I’ve had my JT for 2 plus years, nary a problem. Love it. Have the Altitude trim, got it for Ohio snow and occasional off road. LED headlights and driving light upgrades, tonneau cover, cosmetic upgrades and slightly bigger Goodyear Duratrac tires. Drives great, my favorite vehicle ever. Thanks for the video!

Jason Sir, I can't agree with you more! I love your channel, I've commented to you a few times, once again my name is George and I'm in Southern New Jersey and I have the same exact Gladiator, 2023 Rubicon Crystal Granite, and I ABSOLUTELY feel the same with mine! I bought mine black Friday 2023, 15k off and traded my 2017 Wrangler Winter Edition, financing 25k.
This is MOST DEFINITELY a real good truck!
Thank you Sir for your videos, love the channel brother man!!
And it is VERY AWESOME that you're seeing your father as much as you can, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Jason love your videos. Keep up great work.

That's a Badass Stout little Rig J...we rented one in Colorado and it blew me away how much I liked it. Were praying for you and your Dad bud.

Been thinking about the jeep gladiator since it came out. I finally picked up a Willis for 12k off msrp and no junk fees. Thanks to your reviews by the way and to 2 friends who own gladiators.

Absolutely Love my 2023 Rubicon diesel far out edition Gladiator

[FullArmorE]

Thorough and excellent review.
You're a good son.

[brianquiggle]

God Bless Jason. Safe travels and love your videos.

[robertpoirier]

Good engine. Second on Wards best V6 NA engines only to the VQ40DE.

[alexanderrazuri]

Thanks, you taught me something. I do not need to keep a car for 200, 000 thousand miles +. 😊

Amen! Superb one-year review of your Gladiator Rubicon, Jason. All your videos are interesting and well made. As I get older time passes by faster and faster. It seems like only a couple of months since I saw your initial video when you purchased this Gladiator. (You still had the factory tires on it then!) Was sorry to hear of your father's declining health. My dad passed away in July 2004. I've missed him more than words alone can ever say. Deb and I will remember your father in our nightly prayer tonight as well as the rest of your family. I'll put off buying a Gladiator for the next period of time, but I want a 2024 model as "electrification" does absolutely nothing for me. I'm not nuts about turbo charging either, as I remember the problems Chrysler was having in the mid-1980's with turbo-charged K-Cars. You're a great salesperson for Jeep. You've got me sold. I've pretty well made up my mind to go back to the Mainland with Deb, but I'll probably stay there for only part of the time. The part where we'll drive to North Dakota to visit her son, his wife and their two young boys. We'll also visit my brother, a retired Catholic priest who lives in Great Falls, Montana. If time (and funds) are available, I'd love to spend a night in Moab (without doing any 4-wheeling, unfortunately), and then 2 nights at Goulding's Lodge in Monument Valley. I certainly don't need to be around in about the first week of November when Deb's daughter gives birth to her first child. I'll fly back to Honolulu and then to Molokai before that happens. Happy first birthday to your Gladiator Rubicon in about 2 weeks! Thanks, too, for all your great advice! Andy McKane, 22 August 2024.

I agree 100% best vehicle I ever owned and I own quite a few vehicles. Just curious how come you like taking the gladiator long trip versus the forerunner thank you.

[AndrewBaker]

I love my Gladiator too! Have had mine for almost 4 years. A 2021 Overland. I don’t really hate anything either than the issues I have had with mine. I do find it quirky that Jeep wanted to save money and use the same JL Wrangler rear door on the Gladiator. It would look a little better with another full size door, but it is not a big deal to me.

I have one kislux bag I got in 2019, it's the LV white catogram speedy. It's counter quality and it has a nice honey patina now, so the leather is real. I think whatever makes you happy go for it. I've seen LV with plastic leather and blood red glaze...

[ShaunsJeep]

I love my Jtr same color too. I agree Jeep makes good tough paint.
