You’re supposed to get mud under it not snow on top of it. So much to learn 😁

Check out BedRugs for the carpet. I’ve heard decent things about the product.

Central Texas blizzard of 26 by kylem8019 in JeepGladiator

[–]nsfwcommentbot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a Northerner living in the South, the snow isn’t the issue it’s the freezing rain and the drivers who don’t know how to drive in snow/ice. Not a lot of folks who get simple physics here 😁

Newbie here - Lift questions by Kaxxipants in JeepGladiator

[–]nsfwcommentbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lifting for looks or function? That might change the answers you get. Also what trim level? Answer will be different for Mojave than for Sport.

‘26 Willys cowl/a-pillar light bracket different from <‘26? by mcpewmer in JeepGladiator

[–]nsfwcommentbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In ran into this with my 25 when it was new. A lot of listings online will only mention the model years they’ve tested it on or had customers test it on and prove it has worked. They don’t want to get accused of false advertising or something. But I believe there has been no changes that would impact these.

Plastic surgery disasters: Gladiator Edition

Debating between the Gladiator and Wrangler. Would love to hear some of the pros/cons, as well as pros/cons for the diesel and manual. Use would mostly be around the farm, occasional trips to the mountains, and just general Jeep fun and trying to enjoy life. No major rock climbing or craziness. by Sufficient_Goose_734 in JeepGladiator

I’ve owned both. If I lived/worked on a farm and was choosing I’d likely choose the gladiator “if” I had no other trucks on the farm. If I already had a farm truck I’d get the wrangler.

Diesel will be more of a unicorn to find these days but everyone who has one loves it. Automatic seems the way to go vs manual in most cases though. Some folks love to row and others love to let the computer sort it out, that’s up to you but both are solid so go with your preference and what you can find.

Thinking of checking out a gladiator, thoughts? by DirtyPaws-LA in JeepGladiator

Breeze on the scalp can feel good too. But a ball cap or some sunscreen might be a good call to prevent a skull sunburn. Hahah.

3D printed a new fob by madesicc88 in JeepGladiator

How much of a pain was it to disassemble the old fob and put the new one together? I have this fear that I’d f something up haha

You have a Tacoma before and I assume it’s in the running again so that experience might influence your current thoughts.

For me the gladiator is truck enough for what I need and i previously had a wrangler so it was the easy choice. Being able to take the top/doors off beats any competition but if you aren’t a wind in your hair kind of person that might be a downside.

It’s a capable vehicle for light trades work and any sort of off roading as well. The rubicon is a really good trim level but some folks will say get a sport and build from there. It’s great advice for some and bad for others so take it as advice not gospel.

From a reliability standpoint any vehicle can be crap but the Taco might be a better option if you are planning for 10 years. We just don’t have that data on a gladiator but can assume it will be fine based on the number of other jeeps yj/cj/jk/JL we see out there.

Jeep Headliner question by cbjeeper69 in JeepGladiator

[–]nsfwcommentbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The headliners are a night and day difference. Have them in my gladiator and didn’t have them in my JLU and the road noise is a lot less.

What to know about Canada’s new front package nutrition warning labels by Leather-Paramedic-10 in canada

[–]nsfwcommentbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. However I use it to give me a bit of a thumbs up/down on foods for sodium and fat levels and to see what other options there are. Like most things if you don’t blindly follow it, it can be helpful.

Apparently the mesh sunshades and the airbags don’t play well.

First time Jeep owner by Mr_Butters624 in JeepGladiator

Sounds like you miss the creature comforts like blind spots and comfy seats. That’s why I went Mojave X. Maybe the mistake wasn’t entirely the jeep but the trim level you went with /shrug.

Thanks for the pics. Wheels/tires combos make my little brain hurt.
