Jeep Gladiator - 7 Month Review
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ธ.ค. 2019
- 2020 Jeep Gladiator Review 7 Months and over 14,000 miles. We've done so many crazy things with our Jeep Pickup Truck. Some things that have never been done before. GladiatorGang.com
Some of the things we've done, we towed almost 8,000 pounds about 2,400 miles from Detroit, Michigan to Panama City Beach and back. We've also done a four wheel drive burnout, so all 4 wheels were spinning, pretty cool. We needed the Z Automotive Tazer to be able to engage the lockers at higher speeds.
We have had our 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon since April 2019, which is one of the very first ones to come from the Jeep Factory in Toledo, Ohio. We cover as much details about the Gladiator Truck as we can without making the video too long and boring. We've dedicated our brand 100% to Jeep Gladiator Content, and we have hundreds of hours of video we are editing. Lots of the video of this Jeep Truck are actually just b-roll and rolling shots etc, but regardless we have tons of content. Most likely we have more Jeep Pickup content than anyone else on the internet. So far we haven't seen anyone top what we've done, and we are just getting started.
If you're not familiar with the new 2020 Jeep Gladiator Truck, well then this video will give you a lot of information that you'll want to know about. Also, we cover some of the pricing info in another video, showing exactly what you should pay and how to read an invoice. We don't go into exact prices for each model, but that is something we plan on doing so that everyone who plans to buy a new 2020 Jeep Pickup knows what they should be paying.
The Jeep Gladiator Rubicon, Sport, Sport S and Overland all come with the same motor right now, which is the 3.6L V6 Pentastar Engine, which pumps out 285 Horse Power with 260 lb ft torque. Its a good little motor, but in the next video where we cover what we DON'T LIKE ABOUT THE GLADIATOR RUBICON we will explain more. The EcoDiesel Engine will be coming to the Jeep Gladiators in 2021 Model Year, so most likely we will start to see those engines next year. We don't recommend that engine, but we won't go into any details on that right now.
The Jeep Gladiators all come with Dana 44 front and rear axles, with the heavy duty wide axles being an option with the max towing package. You can run up to 37 inch tires without lifting the Rubicon Gladiator, but at full flex you might have some rubbing. We have BFGoodrich Tires in 35" and 37" and will do full reviews on those compared to the stock tires that come of the 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon.

You posted the same amazon links
i dont mean to be so off topic but does anybody know of a method to get back into an instagram account?
I somehow lost the password. I appreciate any help you can offer me.
@Abel Harlem Instablaster =)
@Casen Brixton I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im trying it out atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Casen Brixton it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much, you really help me out !
My 2022 Mojave’s transmission blew up on the way to PA. 12000 miles on clock.
Disappointing is an understatement
That sucks, I have beat the hell out of mine and no issues yet except had to replace the rear axle, it was completely blown out. They said you could grab the driveshaft and move it all over there was nothing left barely!
Did you ever find out why it blew up?
Love my Gladiator Rubicon!!! You guys are tough on yours. Glad to see it’s holding up. Thanks
Thanks, yeah it’s been beat on pretty good, but so far SOLID AS SEARS 😆
Love my launch edition! I have zero complaints!!!
Bobby Muy That is good to hear haven’t had any major problems with ours either except a lot of times when it’s parked and we put it in reverse it’s a very hard shift almost like when you’re parked on a hill and transmission has a lot of pressure on it but it happens frequently on flat ground only going to reverse
Wow. Just found your channel. EPIC quality, in all aspects. Huge kudos to you, millions thanks 🙏🏻! Subbed!
Thanks, this has been in the plans for nearly 18 months and close to 9 months of filming. Editing and uploading is slowly happening.
You getting a Gladiator or have one?
Gladiator Gang
Well, job well done man, you’re doing a stellar job 🙌🏻! I just picked up a white Rubicon a few days ago-already getting excited to mod it a bit! Will be diving into all your videos for insight into everything; thanks again for doing such superlative work!
Great review! Think I’m going to buy one next week!
Did you buy one?
Shoutout from Flint! Love the review!
Hey thanks, make sure to stop in AMERICA’S MOST WANTED 4x4 in Holly!
BRILLIANT vid lad,, Amazing truck
Thank you, it was a ton of work getting all this footage and then putting it all together. LOVE THE TRUCK. Working on finishing the video “TEN THINGS I HATE ABOUT JEEP GLADIATOR” which honestly they’re all minor things and it was hard to come up with that many. You have one or planning on getting one?
I def been obsessed as well! Enjoying vid, glad i found your page again, been looking for the gladiator jump!!
Demetris Green oh you mean when we jumped it off the LOADING DOCK 😆 got a lot more in the works, but been so busy editing that haven’t had time for more #JEEPKHANA stuff. Gonna jump it again with the 35” @BFGoodrichTires and then of course the 37’s & 39’s. Working on a whole bunch of other tests and reviews as we speak!
Demetris Green do you have a Gladiator or plan on getting one?
@@GladiatorGang Yes I have one, I have a short Vid of mine and upgrades on my page.
Demetris Green very cool, if we get a chance we will check it out. Crazy busy right now.
this is the review i didnt know i needed
Glad to hear, almost at 40,000 Miles / 24 months...
LOVE your JL flatbed!!!
Hidden Valley Homestead now that is REALLY FUNNY. So many thing that make them so different, obviously. There’s a HUGE THREAD on Facebook about why a BED IN A TRUCK is so different that the cargo area of a Jeep Wrangler, because I’ve mentioned I would possibly like to BOB THE BED, and someone keeps saying it’s basically a Wrangler then. So many reasons why an Open Detached Bed is different that an enclosed, sealed cargo area that is part of the vehicles cab. Thanks again for the comment!
Just subscribed. Any review on the wheels? They look great. Going to order some but I want to keep the acceleration that my stock wheels have (gladiator sport s). Any recommendation on tires that are not too heavy?
Working on reviewing the tires and wheels, if you order either let us know first we can hook you up with what’s best for your budget and uses. DM us on Instagram or email Nic@GladiatorGang.com
Super dope video. Really enjoyed how much effort you put in this video great stuff bro
Hey, wow thank you. It’s crazy how much time is put into this. Like literally last video we did (uploaded it today) have roughly 18 hours just in editing the video, that doesn’t include the filming, or reviewing footage part. So can only imagine how much time overall. LOVE IT THOUGH!
Do you have a JEEP GLADIATOR?
Just watched ur recent video yall are absolutely killing it! Im just a 21 year old younging who likes trucks and 4x4s. One day I’ll get myself a jeep truck. Keep doing what you doing Gang!
Hey man, thank you very much. That means a lot! There’s an insane amount of time and money that goes into this stuff! Appreciate it!
Rented one and I fell in love with it!
Timothy Chhay that’s awesome to hear, are you getting one or did you get one? Have averaged less than 9MPG on the last 400 mile trip, but lots of 97MPH driving and got pulled over yesterday going 94 in a 75 😆
Nice review. You helped make my decision that much easier. Love mine as a daily. Perfect size and don’t miss my full size Ram.
Thanks, sorry we’re a YEAR LATE to respond 🤣
I traded my Ram 1500 for a Jeep Gladiator last week. Its definetely an adjustment. The Ram was more truck than I usually need and maybe too big. The Gladiator is better sized, but its drives different, its a 'Jeep thing' I guess. Too soon to tell if I'll regret the trade or fall in love with the Jeep Gladiator...
Digging those wheels and tires!
Thanks, we have had a ton of people love our setup. We can work with whatever brands we want, but we feel like Dirty Life Race Wheels & BFGoodrich Tires is the best there is.
You're absolutely right, the Gladiator is an awesome vehicle. I've had mine for one month now and a week after taking possession it got a 3.5" lift with 37's. Really drives nice. Looking forward to seeing what yours will look like with your changes.
Les Szabo hey thanks, we will run the 37 inch BFGoodrich Tires KM3’s without a lift to show how well it does. Then we will do a few different lift sizes and tire sizes. It’s gonna be a blast. Congrats on the Gladiator, whats the plans for it?
@@GladiatorGang Waiting for the front bumper I ordered. Will be putting a 10k winch, a set of rock sliders, and deciding on what additional lights I want. The s&b cold air intake and Magnaflow catback exhaust are performing awesome. Really looking forward to getting up on some trails.
Oh that’s awesome, love it. Been working on this brand since July 2018. Getting these videos uploaded has been a lot slower than we planned. But we just hit 40K followers on Instagram which is pretty cool.
@@lesszabo5625 Yo, did you get our response?
@@GladiatorGang yes I did
Great video. Really well done. Thank you.
Ramsey Hazemey for sure, soon we will start the 12 Month // 24,000 mile review. Ironically just hit 23,999 miles TODAY right before pulling into the driveway. We are collaborating with @America’s Most Wanted 4x4 for some Hellcat / Demon / Hellephant content as well. Stay tuned!
Thanks so looking forward to seeing your build an getting mine going
Hey Brad, thanks. Just realized you emailed us, right? Love helping people with their builds, although we aren’t experts, our good friend Greg Henderson from Unofficial Use Only is! Talk more soon.
no worries no expert either but people helping people makes it
Brad Callander for sure, we have friendships with the best in the off-road industry which is really helpful. You down in Florida already? What part?
You know a guys from Michigan when he says party store. lol
Kinda thought about that. Knew someone would catch that. Lot of people probably don’t even know what I was talking about LOL 😆
Great catch, you got a Gladiator?
And his license plate
Nice review man!
Hey, thanks. Theres a lot more I could have covered, but just way too much time to make this video. Next one is almost done. Trying to not be so OCD / Creative, but it’s HARD!
1 week in on my Gladiator Mohave love it.. smooth ride.. still babying it just 300 miles on it. but still love this truck.
Put 300 miles on my first day on my mojave. Can’t stop finding a reason to take it out of the driveway.
Wow nice editing and music. Great narration too
subscribed because I liked how you put prices on items within your video i.e. Spray in Bed Liner - $495 @ 10:00 or small comments like fit up to 37" tires with little rubbing at full flex
little details to show the viewer available options is cool and makes you stand out.
Thanks. Covering that much info with that many different clips is absolutely unreal how much time it takes to do it all, but yeah it definitely makes us more valuable and helpful. We have DOZENS of videos in the works. Just takes a while. Shooting a REAL LIFE FUEL ECONOMY VIDEO this week, on the 35 inch Mud Terrains. Hundred mile trip, some 45 MPH, some 55 MPH & some expressway speeds 70 MPH...
Well done evaluation... I will be in there market for a new mid size truck soon and am weighing out the Gladiator and Tacoma...
GO DRIVE a Gladiator DOORLESS & TOPLESS at 97/98MPH and you’ll never consider a Taco 🌮 ma again, by the way, gonna post a big of my truck at Taco Bell earlier, parked on a snow bank, and passenger rear tire was off the ground so much a BAG OF TACOS 🌮 FIT UNDER IT 😆
I have a Frontier but really want a Wranger and I can’t have both but I need a truck. Been on the fence about the Gladiator but with bigger tires it looks much better and certainly more capable than my current truck. Great review! Subbed.
Hey Chuck, I'm not familiar with the Frontiers, however this is THE BEST AND MOST FUN VEHICLE I've ever owned. Literally have a less than 1 mile commute for work and have almost 15K miles on this thing! Have had a Jeep Truck (Wrangler Conversion) on my dream board for a long time, not realizing it had 40's on it (which makes it look so much better) and also not realizing one day I'd be building a massive social influencing brand around the FACTORY BUILT JEEP TRUCK. Anyway, I'm extremely passionate about this truck, and have been working on this brand for almost 18 months now. And I'm not tired of it one bit, which is a great sign. Can't wait to be a full time Content Creator / Social Influencer. Definitely headed in the right direction, but WAY BEHIND on the video production. Have made quite a few crappy short videos for Instagram, but not nearly enough for TH-cam. HAVE FILMED A MASSIVE AMOUNT THOUGH, so the content is recorded.
love my 2020 Rubicon LE! just hit 5k miles! my mileage is 17mpg but 3500 miles are city driving! got mine for light /minimalrock climbing mostly planned for offroading for remote camping with the RTT!
Glad to hear, almost 20K on ours and it’ll be 1 year of ownership in a couple days. 17MPG is pretty common, but varies a lot.
Great review, thanks
Hey thanks, you wouldn’t believe how much time and work it takes to make a video like that. Haven’t driven the Gladiator since December 😆 hopefully have it back on the road within the next couple weeks…
Wow.. I just bought it... Very nice truck
Meiji Wong glad to hear, what mods you gonna do?
Yours looks amazing. Have fun dude, i sure do in my Wrangler
Thanks, its got quite a few mods that need to be done, including multiple lifts and tire sizes... Have an awesome weekend. What do you have done to your Wrangler?
@@GladiatorGang It's my DD, and i kept it stock. It's good enough for light trails and camping lol i wish i could mod it, but there are consequences, like bad Mpg and $$$
Well done all around, got yourself a new sub. Keep it up 👍
Hey JP, thank you, have invested a small fortune into all of this, mainly fuel, the truck, equipment and TONS of TIME.
You have or getting a Gladiator?
Gladiator Gang I bet, it’s paying off! Yeah, I’m thinking
about it!
JP Kahlen thanks for the support, definitely growing and making an impact on the industry.
Your aftermarket wheel and tire spec is fire!!!! I might copy that!!!
Hey, nothing wrong with copying when you’ve FOUND THE BEST combination there is! Dirty Life Race Wheels are hands down the best looking and best performance wheels you can get for your vehicle. They’re one of the few who have the Dual-Tek Beadlock Technology which allows you to Beadlock Mount or Standard DOT Approved Mount your tires! Also, they have these in other colors. Make sure to check out GladiatorGang.com/DirtyLife for more high resolution pictures and more details about their wheels.
As far as our tires, we use @BFGoodrich Tires KM3 Mud Terrain Tires, these are 35X12.50R17’s but we also have these same tires in 37X12.50R17’s
After we run the 37’s we will swap out to the 39” KM3’s and then most likely our final stage will be the 42” BFGoodrich Tires. That’s later in the build series when we finalize the axle swap and most likely do the 6.4L Engine Swap.
Anyway, thanks for the feedback, we can work with ANY BRAND of tires and wheels we want, and we choose the VERY BEST.
Let us know if you get them, and by the way, we are partners with dealer for both brands. So we can hook you up with whatever you want along with EXPERT ADVICE on whatever aspect of your build you need. You can always email us or call.
Love talking about this stuff, it’s a blast!
Gladiator Gang thanks man!!!!
For sure, let us know if you go with them. Love letting Dirty Life know how many people have chosen them because of us.
Finally.. someone like me..
I use mine the exact same way..
Towing,.. hauling,.. and off road
All around is outrageous..!!
Awesome glad to hear, it’ll be 4 years as of next month that we’ve had it! It’s been wild, the roof flew off a couple years ago 😆 all good, little smashed along the bottom.
@@GladiatorGang shoot I missed it…
I’m going to have to get caught up..!!
I’ve owned my Mojito Ruby JLU for 8 month as well and just past 9000 miles and boy i get a lot of compliments 😎 I’m thinking of a gladiator later on the road 🤷♂️ btw I’m running 35 💪
Arckiz Venom that’s pretty cool, and yeah MOJITO is the color we are shooting for when we wrap ours. That’s always been the plan since 2018. Just later stages of #JEEPKHANA for that to happen. 35’s are a great size tire, but personally they’re just not big enough. Switching to the 37’s soon and then 39’s, and of course final stages will be 42’s. Because you can’t lose with 42’s.
I have a 22 Mojave and love it , looking for a lift and I think I am going to add 35’s
Love that you Kept it Clean, and not add ricer parts like a Honda Civic,
2LAZY 2EDIT gonna cut the muffler and resonator off and straight pipe it 😆
Supposedly they sound just as good as the fancy exhaust.
Right now it’s like driving a vacuum cleaner (still stock) no character it’s boring.
6.4L swap in the fall hopefully if not next spring 2021
Thank you sharing about using it as a daily driver with your kids. We have 2 children; one in a car seat and one in a booster seat. I’m averaging 15-18 miles in city driving in Hawaii.
Yeah, fuel isn’t the best but not that bad. Back seat area is definitely snug, but works. We have one reverse facing and one forward facing. Towed a small car last night on a car dolly trailer over 100 miles on PURE ICE it was super nerve racking, almost slid of the expressway at about 60MPH. What trim level do you have?
Gladiator Gang We got an Overland.
@@HoloHoloAdventures Oh very cool, what color and what are your plans for it? Everyone uses these Jeeps for so many different things. We have wood pallets and 2 40 gallon drums in ours right now LOL
Gladiator Gang We plan to use it for the beach and camping. My husband has a lot of plans for this baby. Lol. 😂 First thing is steel bumpers.
Makes me want one even more. Going to give it a few years and then hopefully get one.
Scott Torchik what would be the main reason you don’t get one now? Best truck and most fun ever had in a vehicle so far!
@@GladiatorGang right now it is just the cost.. Currently have a JKU.
A friend of mine works for a Toyota dealership and drove a Gladiator for a week and said it was the best truck in the class by far.
Scott Torchik thats PRETTY AWESOME to
hear from a YOTA DUDE. Thanks for the comment and info. Have an awesome week. TEN THINGS WE HATE coming next.
Nice video. I’m a person looking for a commuter that loves the look of this so I’m glad it works as a day-to-day truck.
You mentioned a cheaper tonneau cover at amazon but don’t link to it. Also, all your amazon links you do have link to the same thing. Thanks!
Are the links messed up? Have a whole list of different things we’ve linked to, but what I’m a hurry and some might be messed up, not sure. The cheapest tonneau cover right now is about $160. Will try to add the link here. Otherwise just click on GladiatorGang.com/Amazon and you’ll see our store. Yeah, it’s a great DAILY DRIVER, even with 35 inch Mud Terrain @BFGoodrichTires. Have over FIFTEEN THOUSAND MILES on our Gladiator and our commute is LESS THAN ONE MILE. So it’s all fun not commuting, but the point is I. CAN’T. STOP. DRIVING. IT. It’s so much fun, right now it’s about 30* out and I have had the doors off since Saturday, it’s hilarious the looks I get when I pass people on the expressway DOORLESS in 20* weather 🥶 make sure to DM us on Instagram if you have more questions, since we don’t always get notifications on here.
@Gladiator Gang I really wish you would discuss why not to get the diesel..... That is what is making my decision so hard between the rubicon nd the mojave.
Looking hard at one of these. Great job. According to the dealer I spoke to last night: No power seats because the vehicle is designed to go through up to 30” of water. That would be a bad thing for seat motors.
Sam Caruso that is correct, because of the ability to go into deep water, the power seat and AIR CONDITIONING OPTIONS is an issue. Just thought it was bizarre to spend over $60K without these options, but it makes sense.
REMOTE START doesn’t work when the doors are off, which is REALLY ANNOYING because it’s been below freezing temps the last few day here, and I need to be able to unthaw the leather and fresh frost before driving it.
But I can’t. So I have to go outside, jump in it, start it and leave it running (DOORLESS). Which means anyone could just jump in it and drive away. Which is crazy.
It poured last night and it was parked in the street DOORLESS, sears and floors are soaked. I parked with the front pointed slightly down hill, therefore the drain plugs didn’t work, had a PUDDLE OF WATER under brake and gas pedals 😆🥶
@@GladiatorGang You're complaining because the remote start won't work with the doors off when it's below freezing? Ummm... why would you have the doors off when it's below freezing?????
Because it’s AWESOME AND FUN. Why have the doors on, that’s BORING (or should I say DOORING 😆)
Doors are off right now, and it’s sitting outside IN THE RAIN.
It’s been frozen, rained on and snowed on. In a blizzard DOORLESS.
Love it.
Finally got the idea to put GARBAGE BAGS over the seats so they stay dry for the morning ride 😆
Boys and Toys because it’s FUN & AWESOME, they’re off right now, and the truck is sitting outside in the RAIN. Threw some garbage bags over the seats to keep them dry 😆
I’m really interested. I’m looking to lease a new midsize truck and actually completely forgot these even exist considering i very rarely see them. I see about 25 tacomas on the road every day but with the deals going on now these are comparable in price. I do wonder though if this will be the base for a return of the dakota midsize truck or if they’ll just call it good with the gladiator.
Great review I'm sold!! Way better than TFLTruck!!
Hey Steve, WE'VE tried to respond literally two or three times but for whatever reason it won't go through. 100% genuine RESPONSE we really appreciate the comment about being better than TFL! Those guys are awesome and the main thing we lack in is uploading content because of our OCD. SERIOUSLY, what is one of the best parts about TH-cam, is reading the comments because it's amazing how many people do not comment, and then AMAZING AND ENCOURAGING comments like this FIRE US UP!
Would love to see some vlogs of you using the truck for various things.
DADventureTV that’s a great idea, not going to do too much vlogging yet, life isn’t exciting enough LOL however showing the fitment and ride of the quad etc would be helpful for some.
Love my gladiator- really bummed it doesn't have the outlet in the bed.
Love driving it so far. Lots of perks- that's just the last one I wish I had.
It’s nice to have, but I rarely use it. It’s going on 5 years in April! Might do a 5 year review. It’s beat up now. Let it run for 28 hours in 80-95+ degree weather in the summer 🤣
Looks clean, nice stance also,
Thank you 😊
i like the way you shoot video you got a subscribe from me😎
Hey thanks, been awhile since we’ve been on here. Haven’t driven the Gladiator in over 6 months!
Love your review. What size of tires do you have on this?
Right now we are running the BFGoodrich Tires 35X12.50R17’s KM3 (Mud Terrain Tires) but we also have these same tires in 37’s. Thanks for the feedback, sorry for the slow response.
Great video bro .. I just pick mine up on Monday gator color ... doing mods today window tint & on Saturday .... same dirty life rims 17x9 but in black with 35 x12..5 nitro grabblers ... love the truck ! Q ... how was it on the beach ? Did you get a lift ? Do the tires rub ? Thx 👍
No lift, stock. 35’s now swapping to 37’s soon. 37’s will fit on Rubicon but some rubbing at full flex.
I’m sure somebody will have an aftermarket plug to plug in where your door plugs go so you were able to remote start it kind of like a bypass or a block to make it feel like they’re there
That would be cool, I’m now working at the most amazing Jeep Shop on the planet and they’re able to do literally just about anything. I’ll have the tram work on that when we have time.
Nice run down of factory options. 👍
Thanks, wanted to cover as much info as we could, which we should have done this 7 months ago, but got way off track. Working on a separate video of what we hate and what we love. Along with Sport, Overland and Rubicon comparisons. Most of this was covered in many other videos.
Gladiator Gang keep em’ coming. My gladiator just shipped today. I’ll send you some pics on IG when I get all my parts installed.
@@Patrick21684 Love it, can't wait. What did you order? First Jeep? Thanks for the support and comment, very happy for you!
Gladiator Gang I currently have an XJ.
Got a Gobi Rubicon. Black top black fenders. Ordered it September 26th. Been sitting on a pile of parts for a while now so I’m pretty anxious to get started. Salesman says shipping is a couple weeks.
Patrick21684 that is really exciting. We ordered a Launch Edition, not was that a fiasco and a joke. Long story, but I almost got fired for buying this Gladiator, and it’s one of the craziest delivery stories ever.
I love to see it in my country....day to day life in good in business track .
Rudy Conde what country are you in? What kind of vehicles do you guys have?
I’m torn between getting a rubicon or Mojave or overland..
I just want a daily that I can take off road here and there. Small lift and nice set of wheels
What I don't like about the lockable rear seats, is that the bottom seat covers can't be locked for those of us that don't have the removable/lockable storage bin. I keep a lot of stuff under those seats, abs would like to be able to lock the bottom of the seats from being raised. You can barely fit anything behind the rear seats. The only reason I can think of why they made the backs lockable is to protect the BT speaker from being stolen, which many of us don't have.
Also, buying the trail rail system from MOPAR after purchase is insanely expensive. $900?! Lot of aftermarket websites have it for $300-$350.
MOPAR is over priced, however usually the quality is pretty good. Not with it though. That’s CRAZY!
Party store.... That is a Michigan only saying. I grew up there and moved out West. No one uses that saying out here. I laughed a little when you said that, reminded me of my old home town. Love the truck... Hope to get one!
Bike Ryder was wondering if anyone would comment about that! Knowing it’s a Michigan thing, most might not know what I meant! When you hoping to get one?
@@GladiatorGang if things go as planned around a year from now. I'm not into 4 wheeling but I have always liked the way Jeeps look. A midsize truck is all I need capacity wise. Enjoyed your video and subscribed. When I get one I will look your videos up for cool things to add.
@@bikeryder757 Awesome, thank you. Personally have never been into off-roading either, but have always wanted a Jeep Truck, they just trigger me. Absolutely love this truck, can't wait to start the next stage of the build, and in a perfect world we will do an engine swap next year. 6.4L Hemi most likely. Seriously appreciate the feedback and can't wait till you get one.
@@GladiatorGang Here's a little history that you might find funny. I grew up in the Detroit area. All the party stores seemed to be owned by Arab's. When the Gulf war started in the early 90's the joke was all the party stores would close if Saddam called up his reserves!
Bike Ryder now that’s funny. Yeah, we used to call our local party story the Iraq Shack, the owners were GREAT PEOPLE and we aren’t racist at all, so nothing intended by our comment in a negative way, it’s just what we called it.
famn good review
Thanks appreciate the feedback and glad you liked it. Have an awesome day.
Max Tow package has high fenders too!
Wider fencers, but only Rubi has higher clearance fenders
I started watching specifically to hear you mention ecodesiel and at minute nine you crushed me dreams. Lol
Louie A. Figueroa well, in my opinion it’s most likely gonna be a GARBAGE MOTOR. Some places Diesel is double the price of Gasoline, you gotta deal with DEF FLUID, and the previous 2 generations of the EcoDIEsel have been awful.
There’s no way on earth for us to know wether or not this is gonna be a good engine or not, because it’s brand new. Until they’re on the road for a few years, nobody will know.
@@GladiatorGang I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to read my comments and responding. You helped save me a lot of time and the resources!! Thanks again!!
Hey Louie, let me tell you something, I respond to EVERY. SINGLE. COMMENT. As long as I get the notifications for them. I’ve worked very hard and long at creating all of this content, but only JUST GETTING STARTED.
Lots more already in the works and almost done.
You still gonna get a Gladiator?
@@GladiatorGang Well, i am sure that I am not the only person to appreciate the work you put into making the video and your prompt responses. Unfortunately I was interested in the Gladiator or Wrangler with the caveat of it being ecodesiel. So unfortunately no I will not being. But if in a few months time if you see it's a different kind of engine please post and I look over the review, once again thank you sincerely.
Louie A. Figueroa for sure, maybe the EcoDiesel will be awesome if you tune and delete it!
Great informative vid. Thanks. Thinking of a Rubicon Gladiator for my next ride and my use would be a lot like yours so I really appreciate your thoughts. My understanding is that it takes 35s with no mods. That would be a mod I would want to do at time of sale to make the breakover and departure angle a little better and also to get a slightly wider tire as some of my offroading is on the beach. I don’t want to go uber tall with a lift- either keep it stock height and just add the 35s or add them with a 1 or 2 in lift max. I like the height of yours. Did you do a lift for the 35s? If so how much? Thanks and keep the good vids coming.
DADventureTV hey DAD, no lift, no spacers and no issues whatsoever. We aren’t into huge lifts either, although we will run at least 2 or 3 different lifts with 37, 39’s and 42’s. But minimal lift as possible. These are 35X12.50R17 @BFGoodrich Tires KM3’s
Thanks for the comment, how do you plan on using it?
Gladiator Gang awesome. Thanks man. Gonna put a pop up tent cab on back (like the GoFast Camper) so I can store my mountain bike inside with it locked, along with a small fridge and probably move the spare up there. Idea is to be able to drive to some trailheads, pop the tent and sleep right there, wake up next day and ride. I do it now but it’s more complicated bc my bike takes up a lot of my way back and even some of the back seat (need to lower one side for it to fit) and my spare takes up a bit too and then I have to set up and tear down my tent. I want it to be simpler. Offroading consists of beach (Assateague, Outer Banks, Delaware) and moderate Appalachian mountain trails in Western Maryland, WV and Western PA and green and blues in some offroad parks in same area. Also need to tow a 6000 lb boat and carry kayaks on top and be my daily. So a lot of requirements. Amazing thing is the truck meets them all. There are not a lot that do. Ford Raptor and Dodge Power Wagon but damn are they huge, and the new Land Rover Defender might work but I have some questions- namely might be too small. I currently have an LR4 with the HD Package- full lockers, low range- that works well for the offroading I do (although I wish I could have gotten smaller wheels to fit a larger sidewall tire- I upgraded to 265/50 Nitto Ridge Grapplers but am stuck with 20s which, of course, are less than ideal. But so far no tears, and I’ve done some pretty rocky trails running about 20 psi. Quite frankly the Gladiator with 35s will have far more capability than I will use- I’m just not into rock crawling or doing black diamond trails- but I love the fact that it fits all my needs and having the extra capability is also nice peace of mind.
DADventureTV yes it is. You have some really fun stuff planned it sounds like. And towing 6K pounds will be a breeze, we did 8K to Florida and Back, not a problem at all. Not recommended though. Thanks for the comment!
Gladiator Gang i watched that one. You make good vids, keep ‘em coming.
DADventureTV well thanks. If I had more time I would make them even better, but getting more content out sooner is more important than special effects so trying to get the videos out sooner. Thanks for the feedback!
I'm curious the measurement you stated the JLU in overall length is that bumper to bumper or are we ending the measurement at the spare tire? Reason I'm asking is garage space.
Overall length, sorry for the slow response not sure why this didn't notify me...
I'm in Michigan too think I'm going to try to get this truck next year but I want to go with the sport s i am going to use it as a daily driver I don't need a Rubicon my jku is a Rubicon.
That’s awesome, what part of Michigan are you from?
Thank you for the comment, be completely brutally honest and let us know what you think of the video.
i am for Ypsilanti....and i like the video i have been watching your videos and think they are good and very well done and i look forward to more
fluffy10mmjeepguy really appreciate that, it’s absolutely ridiculous how long it takes to make a video like this, there’s SO MANY CLIPS. But working on making them less fancy and posting more often. Lot of people from Michigan apparently 😆
What is the offset on your 17x9 wheel, and how much poke from factory flares?
I'm guessing your offset is around -12.
Well you just put a wrench in things for me. I was gonna wait and get the 3.0 when it comes out. My other option is a 2500 Cummins. Any particular reason you don’t like the eco diesel?
The track record for the EcoDIEsel isn't good at all, there's way too much stuff on the engine to make it emissions friendly which takes a huge toll on your reliability. Also, until this new 3rd generation version is on the road for a few years, NOBODY will know how good of a motor (or bad) it is. Maintenance is going to be more expensive, fuel is way more expensive, DEF fluid, and oil changes all make it a lot more than what you're really gaining. Sorry didn't see this comment!
Gladiator Gang thanks for the reply, all good info!!
Bam !!How does it drive on the highway with 35’s is it loud ? Wind?
Drives great
Negatives for the Ecodeisel ..... Why would you. Not recommend?..
It’s a garbage engine, watch when they start hitting 100K miles…
Awesome review!!!! Thank you for sharing. I very interested in hearing your take on the eccodisiel
Hey Mike, the bottom line is that the eco-diesel in the jeep gladiator is a third-generation engine for the "EcoDIEsel" what that means is we really don't know if it's any good or not nobody will know until it's on the road for a few years it could literally be the best engine Jeep/ FCA has made, or it could be the worst engine ever that now not sure if you're familiar with the class action lawsuit with the previous generation engine but the new diesel engines are totally different than the ones we used to have with all the missions crap ...
living in west michigan, and having snow outside, I know this video was shot some time ago :) max tow only available on the sport s
Yes it was. Started about 2 months ago. But overall the content is about 7 months old. Took forever to make this darn video. What part of Michigan are you from?
@@GladiatorGang Grand Rapids
@@gvsukids Oh cool, another comment since this one is from someone who is originally from Michigan, they noticed how I said Party Store LOL. My sister used to live in GR she loved it. I think Jim Carrey moved out that way maybe?
I am pretty sure a loaded Rubicon gets all the Max Tow features but it tows 650 lbs less because it heavier.
Sam Sullivan the Rubicon is rated for 7,000 pounds with the Max Tow Package. Not sure if it’s standard or not. Honestly haven’t spent a ton of time with all the different variations, but that’s also if it has an automatic trans. Manual towing goes way down. Thanks for the comment! You got a Gladiator?
Have to ask why do you not recommend the eco diesel?
So many reasons, but mainly the EcoDIEsel is junk, they didn’t fix the major issue.
Being 20 I’ve started my electrical job and I’ve been hawking the gladiator down since it came out. I want the sport base model with the manual. But, would you consider getting the automatic or manual? That’s the thing I’ve been back and fourth about
Mr. Know It All towing and resale is what you need to consider when picking transmission. Towing drops a lot when you get the HOG LEG 🦵 (Manual). GET ONE!
being 20 you should consider saving you're money rather than going into that much debt... but alas.... I knew everything when I was 20....... stick with that electrician gig and when you get you're journeyman license go buy yourself one then as a present.
Is there a link to the tazer for the auto start?
No, we don’t have any links, however you can hit them up @ their website, here’s the device we recommend for Gladiator www.zautomotive.com/product/tazer-jl-mini/
What an awesome vechicle... The only weak point is the price
Jumps off tailgate while holding hardtop. Nice. I will try this.
Fastest and easiest way, have done it a dozen or so times, @GarageSmart hasn’t finished developing their power hoist yet. So had to improvise.
I would snap like a twig if I did that... BWAHAHAHAHA
Mark Gardner that’s pretty funny, so far, have removed and installed hard top solo dozens of times. ONE TIME had help and was like this is a pain waiting for someone to help.
Mark Gardner that’s pretty funny. Don’t do it then, not recommended!
@@GladiatorGang What's the trick for getting it back on?
Did you lift your gladiatior to fit the 35
Nope it’s none stock sorry for the late response!
Your videos are very well done! Kudos for that!
do u have a lift on yours in this video?
and wheels, is there any spacers in this video/ what size tire in the video on the dirty wheels?
I was actually looking at those exact wheels. And I want a wider stance without spacers, I like how they look on yours, but only if they do that without spacers.
Oh... and if u got new led headlights and fogs, would u sell me your stock led ones? I kinda like how they look. I regret not getting them, but it was hard to find a gladiator that had just the packages I want, since I didn’t custom order mines.
Those are 17x9 Dirty Life Race Wheels, they are Dual-Tek wheels, meaning you can standard mount them DOT approved or beadlock them (just need the beadlock rings) but one wheel mounts both ways. There is NO SPACER, this is exactly the way they come.
No lift, just a stock Rubicon, and those are the 35X12.50R17 BFGoodrich Tires KM3 Mud Terrains.
Links for the wheels and tires are in the description for Amazon if you want to order them, or our buddy Greg at Unofficial Use Only is a deal for both and can hook you up, hit up our website, or email us or send a DM on Instagram to contact us.
Headlights, fog lights and turn signals, will all be for sale at some point, not sure when yet. Just so many different things going on right now.
Thank you for the comment!

So far ONE PERSON didn't like this video, not bad. Although we have REALLY BEEN SLOW at uploading content and need to work on getting it up once a week. Anyone have anything they really want us to upload next? Make sure to check out the Jeep Gladiator Pricing Video: th-cam.com/video/YR7a3acqz1g/w-d-xo.html
Look into Quadratec's LED interior light bar. This is a better set up than mounting a light bar on your rooftop and getting a lot of wind noise. And why do you drive with your seat laying down?
Travelin' Ted when was I driving with the seat laying down?
And yes, seen Quadratec’s on the build our good friend @Unofficial Use Only did with @Steer Smarts... for SEMA.
@@GladiatorGang
Um, when you were driving with the doors and top off. Your seat was almost laying flat (down). At the 11:12 minute mark. Gangsta lean. Lol
Travelin' Ted thats really funny I never noticed that. You’re right, it is really far back, but I was also leaning forward to shoot the video and no be in the wind as much. I do come from the late 90’s/00’s era and did have a low rider 😆
@@GladiatorGang
😁😂🤣 90s era kid as well.
Does the Rubicon have the same ride as the Sport model? I love the looks of the Rubicon, but I'm not going to use it off road and I don't want to sacrifice ride for daily driving. Thanks
Different for sure, but go drive them
@@GladiatorGang I bought an Overland
Quick question is the Gladiator comes 4x4 all time?
Stefano Crescenzi ALL 2020/2021 Jeep Gladiators are 4x4, however they drive in 2 wheel drive until you put them into 4 high or 4 low. Have BARELY driven in the snow, but so far, so much fun!
Hey, in the gladiator, when in manual gear select mode, and you stomp on the gas, does the automatic transmission downshift or stay in the selected gear?
It stays in the gear you select unless you want to stop.
@@GP9railfan Thanks for the response but, I've purchased a gladiator since my original comment and it does not stay in the selected gear. If you stomp on the pedal it will downshift like normal.
I still love the pickup though ❤ ❤ ❤
Is your bike with spacer? If not will a spacered tires fit in this gradiator ?
Ahmed Abdelkarim totally stock 2006 Yamaha Raptor 700, fits perfectly with less than 1/2 inch total on the sides of the tires.
What kind of bike or quad do you have?
I have been thinking about one because I pull my side by side to the deer lease , I could just dump the trailer and drive this all the way to the deer stand. 😁👍
Great idea. I wanted JEE P TRUCK and Side by Side for years. But the crazy thing is, the Gladiator is sorta like a GIANT SIDE by SIDE but also a lot more user friendly for SO MANY THINGS, HAULING STUFF, TOWING STUFF, JUMPING STUFF, FAMILY TRIPS, YOU NAME IT. Sorry for the caps, didn't know it was on.
Coming up to our 1 year anniversary of owning 2020 Jeep Gladiator and will do a FULL REVIEW AND OVERVIEW of all the basics, towing, daily driving, performance, reliability, TRADE IN VALUE etc.Should be close to 20K miles by the end of the month.
Have had a Gladiator longer than 99% of the people. The 1% is test mules and there was a few corporate leases a month before they hit dealers.

@@GladiatorGang You're Welcome Brother, I have also fallen in love with the Jeep Gladiator.
Driven in one yet?
It’s literally an obsession for me. Hence responding at FOUR AM 😆
Clocked over 200 miles today in FREEZING TEMPS with EXTREME SEVERE WINDS. And managed to hit TOP
SPEEDS for about 1/3 the trip.
Private course in MEXICO 🇲🇽
Dropped off 4 wheels and tires and picked up 6 more new ones.
Waiting on MORE wheels from Dirty Life so we can start STAGE 2 of #JEEPKHANA
@@GladiatorGang Haven't drove one yet, have driven the wrangler before. I really like them.
Much better than a Wrangler in SO MANY WAYS.
how did you "almost get fired " for getting the Gladiator" ? (@8:07)
Well, honestly can’t go into a whole lot of details, but did you ever hear about how we actually bought the Gladiator without ever sitting in it or test driving it? Met the sales dude at his house at 10 at night, signed the paperwork and was given the keys. Truck was at the dealer and we went to pick it up at midnight. It’s a pretty wild story.
What rims r they bro @ 2:12?
Dirty Life Race Wheels, sorry didn't see this comment.
I really like those wheels. I have a Launch Edition in red and will be going to larger tires soon. Can you tell me any details about those wheels?
Yes of course, these are Dirty Life Race Wheels, DT-1 17x9’s and 35” Mud Terrains @BFGoodrich Tires. Our good friend and Co-Founder of JEEPKHANA @UnofficialUseOnly is a dealer for Dirty Life if you want to order a set. They usually run around $280/wheel with just the standard DOT approved simulated beadlock rings, if you want the real beadlock rings those are about $100/each.
Jim Jackson also, go to GladiatorGang.com/DirtyLife for more pics & videos.
@@GladiatorGang Thanks for your timely response and love your ride in black.
Jim Jackson HATE the black LOL but since we are wrapping it in the final stages we did black. What color is yours?
@@GladiatorGang mines firecracker red. I like black and looks great when cleaned up but it's hard to keep. Chose red because it doesn't show the dirt as bad.
Nic are you still hooking it up on the dirty life rims?
Still love their wheels, and they’re still on my Gladiator, yes. What do you need?
@@GladiatorGang looking to purchase the exact ones you have. -12mm offset? Looking for a full set. Any recommendations where to purchase?
@@shanedrilling3276 I don’t even remember the offset, but I believe you’re right yes.
@America’s Most Wanted 4x4 is who I recommend to get them from.
They don’t sell brews at the party store, it’s generally candy, paper plates and gift wrap.
you do know it is illegal to not have side mirrors on your vehicle when you remove the doors?
Absolutely for sure, and don’t care!
@@GladiatorGangthis response alone earned you a subscriber. My kind of people.
@@CapnDavidMorgan thanks, have a great week!
Have the diesel love it apparently you don't that's your choice anyway nice video
Research all the issues with them previous versions, they changed 80% of the newer one, but not the problem that ruins them. Good luck, glad you like it.
Great video. The only thing I heard that I dont believe is true is the axles. All trim levels have available 44hd axles, they're not stock equipment. They come with the max tow package on the sport, sport s and overland model. Not nit picking, just trying to share good info 👍 keep up the good work!
That's not true, ALL GLADIATORS have the Dana 44's, but yeah the Max Tow Package and Rubicons, get THICKER AND WIDER D44's. Still D44's just different width and thickness. NO GLADIATOR on the planet has anything less than a D44 unless someone swapped them out for a smaller one...
Go to the Facebook Gladiator Groups, its discussed OVER AND OVER with the difference between the wider D44's and the normal standard ones. Engineer & one of the main guys on the Gladiator team at FCA/Jeep Scott Blum can tell you the exact thickness differences if you want to know. We are RIGHT HERE IN DETROIT and are 100% positive they all have D44's.
Alright, guess they all have 44s then. I have a loaded sport S and have the max tow so I have the best axles either way haha 👍
@@Bajablast_scuba_cat Yes you do, what's the plans for it? Thanks for the comment, by the way?
@@GladiatorGang plans are the stage 4 4.5 inch overland kit from evo and 37s. Long term plan haha
I’m getting an overland tomorrow and I haven’t been able to sleep for the last 3 days
😂..🤣. I’m considering buying one too but I hear so much negative reviews with Jeep reliability. I don’t know what to believe anymore. I’m trying decide between Toyota Tacoma or this. I don’t off-road.. I’ve never owned a Jeep. But I do like the Gladiator look with 37’s.
I can only tell you my experience, and its been incredible. Nothing to complain about beside the high price. You’re gonna most read reviews of people who have had problems. People who are happy are less motivated to the world and write a review. Toyota definitely has a high quality reputation, but they aren’t nearly as cool as a Gladiator. 37’s is a great look and I highly recommend that. Also, go drive doorless and topless, it’s the best experience and so much fun!
Gladiator Gang - I wish the dealer had a naked option I could test drive so I can experience that! True.. the Tacoma doesn’t have that ‘cool’ and unique factor like the Gladiator. A big concern of mine is the noise level on the highway.. and the seat comfort. I hear it’s so noisy at even 30MPH. I can’t imagine traveling 6 hours on the highway in this thing (sometimes I go from northern Cali to southern) and tolerating that wind noise all the way. I’m sure it can get tiring.
One of the newer trucks I'm considering...
Well that's cool, but else are you considering… Having no doors and no roof is literally one of the most funnest things I've ever done have not had my doors or roof on in months and as a matter fact the truck is sitting outside right now in the rain with a cover...
@@GladiatorGang was looking into the Chevy Colorado, Ford Ranger, might end up with a Toyota Tacoma
Heck with all that, just get a Gladiator!
@@GladiatorGang it's more jeep than truck is the problem...
JediTim well, depends how on what you’re gonna use it for.
always what one has is the best, because that is how we are human and we never accept anything other than ours
did u add a lift to get the 35s on the gladiator
NOPE, stock suspension. Will run our 37’s initially with NO LIFT as well to show the max, there will be rubbing but supposedly not much.
thanks wife wants the rubican got 4.10 gears fig 35 would be fine for a women daily driver will never see off road just snow
robert fitzgerald 35’s with the 4.10 gears is perfectly fine, no issues. 8th gear all the time at 70+ MPH except if there’s a small amount of wind it’ll kick down to 7th. Very happy with it so far. Switching to 37’s soon and will see how that goes, don’t think it’ll be as good.
That half tailgate lock is actually an old Dodge trick. My 96 Dakota had it
Joshua Jeremy it’s a great idea and not sure why it’s not on more trucks, it’s so simple and has come in handy SO MANY TIMES. Thanks for the info, do you have a Gladiator or plan to get one?
@@GladiatorGang Shopping now actually. Your videos assist me in learning more about the truck and purchasing it. Thank you.

@@GladiatorGang th-cam.com/video/0pg28TO7V6I/w-d-xo.html
I want to get a Gladiator like crazy, but have a hard time justifying it over something like the Ram Rebel with a Hemi. Can get a truck with more power, better/comparable mpg's, more space, and better options as far as inside the cab goes (loaded) for the same price or cheaper. Obviously you can't take the doors and roof off the Rebel and cant climb rocks the same, and then there's that iconic Jeep look! The realist side of me says Rebel, while the kid in me says Gladiator. Did you have any similar thoughts, or were you jeep all the way?
Have had a couple Rams, Sport Night Edition with Hemi, Big Horn etc. Also have owned 3 or 4 6.2L GM's (Escalades, Denali's Etc).
It really depends on what you're gonna use it for. Yeah, the Gladiator is pretty small inside, ESPECIALLY COMPARED to a 2019 or 2020 Ram, the new ones are 4 inches bigger in the back seat and the floors are flat now, so they're HUGE.
BUT, at the end of the day the Gladiator is SO MUCH MORE FUN, removing the doors and top is a blast, and thats one of my favorite things.
Gas mileage doesn't matter to me, but to some thats a big deal depending on how much they drive.
Go drive both, right out the pros and cons and then decide. The money ins't that important, its what makes you happy. Spending 60K on a truck is absolutely nuts, but I don't regret it at all.
Nick also, Ram Rebel with Hemi gas mileage isn’t gonna be that much better. Unless you’re gonna run pretty big tires on a Gladiator. You can easily get 16-18 MPG.
Over 20 when going 55MPH pretty easy too...
Great review!
GroundZero hey thank you, we will NEVER make a video again using b-roll mostly. Took SO LONG 😆 but glad you like it. Will make some videos covering what we DO NOT LIKE and what we love, there’s just so much to cover when reviewing a video!
Do you have a Gladiator?
Gladiator Gang I bet but was done really well.
Gladiator Gang Yep for about 5 months now. In my thumbnail, it’s got 3.5 lift on 17 Fuel Zypher Beadlocks Red, and 37s. Will be posting a video on it in the next two weeks.
GroundZero well thank you, it was a lot of work. Lots of content for everyone to enjoy. You have a a Gladiator or are you getting one?
Is this truck good to fit an adult in the bag with space ?
YakkFN I’m 6 foot and fit fine. I’d prefer the seat to go back farther (there’s brackets you can buy for that).
But the back seats are snug. There’s more room than a Wrangler’s back seats though.
You really need to go sit in one and see for yourself.
Today is EXACTLY one year since I bought it and it’s been incredible!
Gladiator Gang - I hear the seats in these Jeeps are uncomfortable. Not enough support and you tend to adjust yourself a lot. Is that true?
The frames for all of the Jeep trucks are built in Owensboro Kentucky. The first 30,000 frames are out of factory spec. Meaning out of 30,000 frames no 2 are alike. Tram the frame from one to another and see for your self!!!!
That’s interesting, not familiar with this aspect of manufacturing. Thanks for the info, you work there?
Gladiator Gang no I do not work there, I sell and service robotic welding equipment
Gladiator Gang most of the welding is done by hand and the trunion that clamps the frame in is off. From all the mig welding the frames get over heated and tons of clamping force drives the frame out of conformity. Once powder coated all frames get sent to mobis in Detroit by truck and built very popular truck at 2019 Sema show. All of the builders and customizers have noticed the frame specs are way off. Just another thing to be mindful of when making a 60-70 thousand dollar purchase
wild wildman well people have claimed ours is probably bent now after jumping off that loading dock LOL. No problems so far, drives straight as an arrow and haven’t had any issues at all.
Funny windshield tint but you have top off and no sunglasses. You don’t need that tint.
Helps when the roof is on!
Can this replace my Odyssey?
Absolutely hopefully you already did!
