Figured I’d share our latest Gladiator. It’s a mid-optioned Sport and we put on some aftermarket wheels and chunkier tires. No lift.
I think it came out really well and looks great even without a mild lift. Apparently other liked the look as well, it sold after 1 day of being back on the lot.
*Not sure of the brand of wheels/tires, I work for them remotely and didn’t see it in person.

Does the window sticker not fit in the windows where people could actually see it?

Didn’t know the US has the fender / bumper gap filler panel. Thought that was a Europe thingy.

They pretty wide. They come from the factory on the windshield

As long as they buy Truecoat, the Flag comes with it ;)

Like the tires, not a fan of those wheels. I’ve decided I like the Gladiator a lot more with the black top vs. body colored (same for the regular Jeep). Whoever at Chrysler decided to not give the option of contrasting top colors, well, they stink.

Good point, I hadn’t noticed that. A quick look at what people are selling on cars.com seems to indicate that the Gladiator Sport gets those , while the Rubicon and Overland don’t.

The sport S with the towing package is the one to get unless you plan to use those lockers. Its the one with the actual payload and towing advantage and its not priced to the moon.

Absolutely. It should come as no surprise that we’ve sold a lot more Sport model than the upgraded versions.

I think I like these wheels because they look more street like and less truck/off-road looking. Completely agree on the black top. The soft top actually looks pretty cool, too.

As someone in new car prep, it’s really aggravating because we have to remove them, and, at least on Wranglers, put them on the side windows.

Oh for sure. When I sold here half the time we had to do that and it gets super annoying.

I would shocked to see a sport here in Utah though. other than maybe an overland here and there. Sports will be virtually nil in this market.

Every vehicle has it’s ‘quirks’.
For example, Compasses, Renegades, and Journeys always, always have left over adhesive from the protective stuff used during transport.

Don’t know if you ever worked on Nissan’s but we got them fresh from the factory when I worked at Enterprise and my god..Every door had stickers on it that tore off in 100 pieces.

I have not. This Dodge dealer is my first job. The service department ‘preps’ them, as in removes the stuff from shipping and makes sure they’re safe for sale, but the actual cleaning and whatnot is of course left to us.

Rubicon can still tow 7k and gets all the off-road goodies, which is very impressive. Yea it’s priced like it, but for the money there’s not much else out there.

Admittedly , I’m more of a Full-Size Ram guy, but these have really been growing on me. Especially this one.
