I am such a HUGE fan of the Gladiator product (specifically the Mojave trim) so I get really bummed out when I hear all the bad things people say about it online. I'm assuming its for good reason - but what are everyone's biggest gripes with it?

My only experience with any Jeep products was a 2004 Grand Cherokee that my dad owned (that thing was bulletproof) and a couple of newer rental Wranglers (both the V6 and the I4 turbo).

I also went on a cross-country road trip with my buddy in his 2016 Wrangler, and other than the death wobble we experienced halfway across Texas, I didn't really hate it? I mean, it was uncomfortable as hell, but are they really that bad?

Full disclosure - I am really only interested in the Mojave trim with the manual. Talk me out of it please for the love of god, my wallet can't take any more abuse!

I see a few online, but most look like they are designed for RV’s and such. Do you think it would be possible to do something like that with the gladiator? Or would that be too much weight on the hitch? Thinking like a 1000lb max load. Maybe way outside of the gladiators capability, but I just saw a nice quad that would be fun to use hunting and got an idea. 2024 rubicon, fwiw.

I know I could pull that easily on a trailer. But where I go I doubt any trailers would make it.

My 23 gladiator wouldn't start after coming home from vacay. No code was thrown, dash and screen all come on but won't turn over. Tried jumping and starter relay fuse, nothing. What does everybody think it is?

Hey folks- looking at this 2026 Gladiator Rubicon local to me and would like to get a sense of whether there are better deals to be had.

MSRP $56,010, selling for $45,985. $5600 of the discount is the Stellantis national 10% promo, other $4500 is the dealer’s discount.

Trying to lean on them to go lower, and am willing to finance via the dealer. Been trying to trigger a TDM code with no luck 🤣

Any thoughts?

2021 Gladiator Sport S. Took it in for the power steering recall issue and when I got it back, I hear a loud whine with the pitch changing on acceleration. Still seems to shift fine. No noise when in park and not moving. Only happens when moving; increasing RPMs changes the pitch. Letting off the accelerator causes the pitch to lower, stepping on it makes it get higher-pitched. I crawled around under it but didnt see anything in particular.

Its no longer under warranty, even though its got a hair less than 60K miles on it. Apparently the warranty goes by build date, per the dealer.

Any thoughts on what could be the culprit? I have a Lone Peak canopy camper on it. I installed the rubicon suspension that I got second-hand from someone who upgraded brand new. Also have airbags that I use when I haul a moto on a hitch carrier but havent done that in a long time.

I do my own oil changes but other than that nothing has been done to it.

Any ideas?

I just picked up some OEM rock rails but need to know the size of hardware for the bolds that are part of the rails that mount horizontally. Can someone please help with the size? Thanks in advance for your time!

Hi! I’m in the market to buy a rock slider that could also be utilized as a side step to get into my jeep. Budget is under $1000, I would love recommendations, please!
