Love the color. Too many black and gray Jeeps on dealer lots. But, these would be so much more appealing if they were not priced like a boutique luxury vehicle (not really Jeep's image).
3.73 gears are a little out of place being the same ratio on the sport. But I agree, nice truck and well done. Price and market climate don't seem to be in the Gladiator's favor for that type of pricing but your review is awesome. Still available with a manual, cool.
Had a 2020 Gladiator for 3 years. It was alot of fun. Convertible pickup is a game changer. Mine had a 3 inch lift and 35s and it drove and handled great. If i had a long commute it wouldnt be my choice, but for everything else, it was great.
Since when is spending $55k a poor man vehicle. This is a joke and the reason why these manufacturers keep upping the price. Let's stop buying and paying hugh prices and take a stand against these ridiculous prices.
I got to test drive one when i was thinking of swapping out my renegade during the winter sales of 2023. 40k-45k for a willys (with custom options), i think, is a great deal. It really feels like you're driving a tractor on the highway, and i loved it. Anything more than 50 is a STRETCH, but there are good deals out there.
Ty for sharing, this paint theme really does pop well ... since I don't hit the trails to me this vehicle would not make financial sense as I can get into decently equipped full size trucks at this price point BUT this is still a neat truck to drive / own ...
Nobody wants a manual. Almost every single wrangler/gladiator is auto. Jeep has already stated the auto will be the standard transmission. The manual will be an option in ‘25
Looking at a 2021 Willy's Gladiator with a 6 speed manual. Nobody wants it. I'm waiting for the price to drop a couple more thousand before I start dealing with him.
i want to trade my Camaro for a gladiator 2024, which trim you recommend i wont be doing any off road driving but i want all the nice perks like apple air, LED light and all the cool high tech stuff.
Got my new 2024 willys anvil clear coat for 38k in houston the day after Thanksgiving. Had a 23 pro4x frontier that got totaled out in a parking lot. Big differences between the two, thats for sure.
Poor man?!? How about some of don’t need the off road capability of the Rubicon. I need to get through snow and a couple of fishing spots. Poor man?!! Dude, don’t be that guy. Our Willys Wrangler is just what we needed and later this year the Gladiator will do the towing we need… No poor man here, just not wasteful to satisfy others opinions of Jeep owners.
I own the Sports S.. it has a lift kit, and 17" pro comps with Gladiator MT on them.. it does pretty well in all conditions.. my only complaint is the seats aren't that comfortable..
These were affordable until the dealerships in my area realized this and raised the price $20k over sticker. These are 70-75k in my city. I live in B.C Canada.
I’ve had a wrangler Sahara , Cherokee trailhawk, grand Jeep Cherokee & now I have a Rubicon unlimited. The trailhawk was 😢best in the snow. ❄️ I’m looking at gladiators now Willys because I’d rather trade in my Mercedes since it is available in manual transmission!!❤
I was hoping to / planning on getting / ordering a 2 door rubicon. In my mind I figured it would be in the low 40’s after building it the way I wanted it It came out to be almost 60K. WTF jeep? You’ve lost your damn mind. I mean it’s not my company, but you too your brand niche and somehow managed to piss it away…. Nice work
Have u tried looking around for a preowned one? I have a 2018. 2 door hardtop JL Rubicon. I bought it in February of 2022. It was 4 years old with 18k miles. I paid $45k for it. It was a lease turn in. 6k per year lease from the previous owner. Good deals are out there. Just have to look. See if any dealers have a new 2023 sitting around. They might deal better on last year's model. Do a nationwide search.
@davidmengle8269 yep. These new wrangler prices are stupid. There's no way in hell I'd buy anything new right now. I have mine just like I wanted it. Lift kit. Bigger tire. New LED taillights. Insulation kit in the hard top. They had mine last fall for 9 weeks. Getting 2 news doors & hood. Because bad paint prep from the factory. There is no way I want to start over with another wrangler
This is the reason why American car companies keep losing market share to their competitors. The price does not justify the quality and value of the vehicle. For the same money, you can buy a Toyota Tacoma which is better in every way than the Jeep Gladiator.
WHY does the dealer raise the price of the Jeep form 30+K to 50+K...........Unconceivable....I just don't get it. Greed, poor market study, stupidity, all of the above?
Buying This Vehicle Is A 'Poor ' Choice! Another Reason Why The 2 Local Dealers Are Loaded With Jeep Inventory! Nobody In Their Right Mind Would Buy This!
I had a 2021 Willy Gladiator. Did all the mods. Lift, rims, tires Bumpers and winch. Stock or Modded just didn't like the on road handling. Sold it when the market was high. Went back to Tacoma TRD OffRoad. Way better.
Hello everyone, we have produced a seriers of seat cover for Jeep Gladiator without rear cup holder. And currently, the product still needs testing. We are looking for people in California to help us with the testing. Testers will receive a free seat cover. If you are interested please contact me.
Sad this didn't get all the upgrades of the Wrangler with 4.10s and 33s. 880 pound payload?!? That's pathetic. How does Jeep sell any of these? I love the look but that's embarrassing.
@@FollowJesus-lb1ds I’ve yet to see one anywhere near that. Both the Ranger and GM trucks blow this out of the water. I love the look but pathetic numbers and outdated engine it’s hard to justify.
Agree. Truly pathetic payload and I don’t know where the 900 pounds from the supposedly 1,700 pounds max payload went because there are not many heavy options on this vehicle. I wonder what the payload is on a FULLY optioned Rubicon or Mojave? 600 pounds?
The only people i see driving these are old women. Not that that has anything to do with anything but just an observation. Its the new age convertable sports car haha
55K is not for the poor man

ridiculously steep. It is of no surprise that the units of sales are so sluggish.
Ben a willys sport is the poor man's package and also, the smart man's package. Yes I have a Gobi one. 55, 60 70k is insane for a jeep.

How the heck is the payload so low. My freaking Subaru Outback has more payload. A truck should have at absolute minimum 1,000lbs of payload.
The 2024 Gladiator Willys has a maximum payload of 1,725 lbs.
I know Stellantis says that but I haven’t found a single review where payload was more than about 1,200 pounds. This one has 880 pounds. Pathetic.
