They seem to be pretty popular. My local dealer sold their first before they even had it cleaned up and put on the lot.

That's not event close to the old full size jeep truck. This so called new jeep truck is a disgrace to jeep and the old jeep trucks. This new jeep truck looks like they took a jeep to a body shop that makes limos and just did a stretch job . For about 5k you can get your jeep stretched and it would be alot better and only 10% the cost of a new jeep truck. Google a pic of the old jeeps and you'll see my view about this .

I work at the Jeep plant, I love the way both the Wrangler and Gladiator look when I see them all as I'm leaving every night. I think I like the Gladiator just a little more but the new Wranglers are super good looking as well. I don't like hearing that there's still the loose steering issue with the Gladiators now though :/

[@graham-jefferson]

13:36 - "Trail Rated" status may be determined by engineers as you said but it is also a marketing "gimmick" used to entice buyers. It is a branded message designed to communicate higher off road capabilities over other market offerings that is literally adhered to the side of the vehicle (fits my definition of gimmick, but perhaps not everyone's). Not trying to ruffle feathers here, but if I were told it is not a marketing gimmick by a "presentation guy" who is paid to market the Gladiator at a Jeep off road (marketing) event, I wouldn't trust that messaging. Love your honest takes and opinions in all of your videos, but that bit made me raise a brow lol. Anyway, It looks strange, but less strange the longer you look at it. I'd take a regular rubicon if I had to choose one or the other.

I was never a Jeep or a truck person, but I rented a Rubicon while in Hawaii recently, and there was some a serious off-road & rock crawl road I took it on, I was insanely shocked with how effortless it climbed over everything, so now I would definitely own one of these as a 3rd car. Although the best off-roading experience I've had was with a crazy Defender in Iceland a few months back, nothing beats that thing!

[@dha588]

[@jdvaillancourt]

So, I'm not going to read through all 514 comments, but from what I can tell, nobody has mentioned this yet: At 5:56, Yuri said that his one buddy pointed out that if you put drywall in the bed, it'll crack from sitting on the wheel wells. That might be true, but if you use the features in the bed that you can see at 5:52, your drywall should be fine. Look on top of the wheel well. See that little indent that's about the size of a 2x4 piece of lumber? Lay said piece of lumber flat from side-to-side. Also, see the little vertical indent just behind the wheel well that's about the size of a 2x6? Stick a piece of said 2x6 in there vertically from side to side and BOOM! Instant drywall shelf. Jakub, check your Raptor. I bet your bed has similar features.

[@unitedgray]

I think the Gladiator measures about 45" between the wheel wells...it sucks that they couldn't make it just 48.5" to accommodate people who haul sheet goods. It's the primary reason why I will never buy any midsize truck.

[@michaelsvr6]

Hey guys love the show, also from Toronto. One question. How are you guys recording outside of the car while driving? Thank you keep up the review. Really enjoy it

[@fabianherrmann6398]

Yuri admitted to me once in a comment that they are using alien technology.

[@dwegmull]

[@michaelsvr6]

Very neat technology. I was thinking it was a drone

[@WobblePizza]

Id love to see you two test that J6 concept they are considering. That's what I really want, a 2 door version of this. Glad is just too big for where I live.

[@musicanoofficial7233]

It got a steering wheel just like my raptor.

[@MIGerlag]

If they build a regular cab / single cab like the J6 concept but with a V8 plus a manual transmission I’ll buy it tomorrow. Even better if they fitted it with an Raptor like high-speed off road type suspension setup so I can do jumps in my two-seater, regular-cab, short-bed, manual, V8 Jeep truck that’s also a convertible... sounds like my perfect ride! Best most detailed review so far, love it, great work guys! Cheers.

[@quinnhowlett697]

MrWaffleBrainz the gladiator being an all around truck doesn’t make it a “city” truck... people can have more than one vehicle, you can actually use the gladiator as a tow rig to tow your wrangler to the trails, and on days where you want the family you just wheel with the gladiator... the truck doing everything has nothing to do with city or country, it has everything to do with the application that people want to use it. Want to throw some hay or straw in the box? You can throw it in the gladiator, you can use the gladiator as a farm or work truck too...

I think Jeep could’ve manufactured a better front bumper for the Rubicon with a much better approach angle, though I can see a lot of people just buying this as a grocery getter more than using it for off reading.

[@jackrotter9434]

And besides, the aftermarket for jeeps is 2nd to none. You can customize it in whatever way to suit your needs. For a stock vehicle the approach angle is very impressive, don't know what you are talking about...

[@RickZackExploreOffroad]

The approach angle on the Gladiator is the only 0.5 degrees less then the JL. The departure and break-over is where the big difference is. The departure angle is really not an issue because you'll just drag the skids.

[@respekted]

So cool and appealing but the only thing that would hold me from buying it is the expected reliability.

[@joshuamccormick5497]

Buy an extended warranty, problem solved!

[@RickZackExploreOffroad]

I have never had an issue with reliability on my JK and I wheel it a lot. I have bent the tie rod and rear axle but that was my fault. I've also fried the sound system wiring in a dual battery, totally my fault, but still Jeep replaced the $1500 unit for free telling me "It's a Jeep, people modify them"

[@a13xp52]

Dude, the 3.6 has been around for decades at this point, they aren’t bad motors at all. The newer 8 speed transmissions are much better than the 5 and 6’s were 10 years ago.

[@bmecalgary]

A serious contender to the Tacoma. It provides all the necessities for a great mid size pickup and great off road capabilities that Jeep is known for. Finally there is a mid size truck with a solid front axle that appears to have good ride quality and doesn't make any apologies for being a true off roader. I've always been a Toyota fan, but if Jeep has brought some reliability to the market with this package, watch out Toyota.

That missed fistbump at 9:20 lol

Probably the only pick-up that you can hose the insides, as it's water tight.

[@dha588]

How come you guys never talk about MPG?

[@TheStraightPipes]

Because we can’t fully test it for ourselves. That info is available online

[@gbr8463]

They use Smiles / gallon instead. #sendit :)

A BMW E 60 M5 is a lifestyle car, if your lifestyle is losing money on transmission and lisenig to sweet v10s.

[@iamfrankstallone]

Of course the ZR2 can go down at that angle.

OTHER LIFESTYLE VEHICLES... 1. Every El Camino/Ranchero ever. 2. Every muscle car ever. Realistically, they have less point to existing than the Gladiator. But, we love them. Sooo.., lifestyle. 3. Every exotic/super car, too... Totally showing off how you're living with those. NAME FOR HELLCAT POWERED VERSION... Spartan... Maybe aim for a slight pun and name it after the legionnaires' longest sword, the Spatha? Certainly if they do a long haul package, they should call it the Sarcina (a legionnaire's backpack).

This thing's a beast but damn it's hard to look at

The Gladiator has become my new dream Jeep/pickup truck 🤗❣️

[@bmorphizzle5190]

Alright; great concept-to-production product, and will fill the needs of plenty of bros & the older, cool dads. But, damn it’s FUGLY! Utility>Style✔️ #ReluctantRespect Jeep ®️

Brad Morphew yes it is

[@lesszabo5625]

Like the review you guys did. I like the Gladiator. I purchased the jlu Rubicon last year and I believe that Jeep has really hit the bullseye with this new model. As for the Gladiator, as soon as I sell my Raptor I will be ordering a Rubicon model.

[@marcusdamberger]

Looks like there will be a glut of Raptors on the market soon! Its nice that people like Les Szabo took initial deflation hit on these after driving them off the lot and will be trading them in, so look for some low mileage Raptors soon at Jeep dealers! ;)

[@cedrick305]

Man that Jeep top is going to fly off!!!

[@leaveearly3751]

to be honest i think its better you guys just use the gladiator to trailer two atv's and just go off roading with those...
