- In this video we take a look at my 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. I walk you through the condition of the vehicle after being daily driven for 40k miles. I also go over the few issues I've had with my Jeep. Enjoy!

I got a '23 and no problems. Got a killer discount I had to work for, and love it over the '24.
The issue with the front windshield is mostly physics. A flat piece of glass doesn't have near the strength of curved glass. It's the principle of the 'arch'. The new Bronco windshield is fairly upright but is curved and shouldn't be as vulnerable. Flat glass is a trademark Jeep feature and makes for a lower profile when folded down to the hood.
As far as the wheel spacers you are adding (marginal) stress to the suspension system for aesthetics. Guys adding spacers and/or more negative offset wheels and larger tires are adding even more stress. It's leveraged weight on the suspension system. Ditto levels and lifts. Plus bigger tires and wheels add more unsprung weight which negatively affects performance such as braking, acceleration, possible hydroplaning and definitely fuel mileage. Changing axles rations to lower gears (higher numerical ratio) will help with acceleration but there is no free lunch; top speed will be reduced and braking will still be negatively affected. The suspension system can be upgraded to handle the added weight and stress but this is very costly and many owners skip it. Also lower profile tires will make for a stiffer ride. If you need it for off-road use and/or like the look that's fine but accept there are downsides.
Personally I would avoid buying any used vehicle with a level and/or lift and larger wheels and tires. It's a definite red flag. I drive a stock 2023 Gladiator Mojave. This is my 8th truck. I'm on rough service and logging roads at least once a week and have found no need to upgrade anything. I think this goes double for the Mojave's brilliant suspension system. Jeep spent millions on development. Why jeopardize it?
Hi Joe , thanks for the review!
Pick mine up next wknd!!
You never said what was wrong with the pwr steering and electronics/dash???
Wondered what repairs were necessary?
Thx, Bryan
True reviews are tye best. So sick of TH-camrs claiming every car they review are the best thing next to clean air
You can add protective foil on the windshield
Just bought a 21 gladiator rubicon. I like it alot, do you do any "off-roading" ? Was just wondering how it was just as a cruising jeep. I dont go off roading i just like the truck.
The issue you had with the dash lights and loss of power steering happened to me with my 3.6 JK. They replaced the BCM, Clock Spring, and something else. Did they tell you what they did on your JT?
Putting on front and rear mud flaps cuts down on the spray up the side of the jeep.
you add spacers that move the wheels outside of the fenders and you expect to keep it clean. That shouldnt be a complaint as its self inflicted. I mean, thats common sense on any truck.
Same as the window, not sure if you researched jeeps but cracked windows have been an issue for decades and the current windows are slanted more than ever before.
Came here to say the same, self created problem. And man that inside could use a deeeeeep clean.
@kevinfamoso1865 40k mikes and still has the sticker by the glove box.
Thats the dirtiest looking pavement princess truck i have seen.
What was the issue with the truck when the electrical went haywire? Diagnose from dealership?
I've had mine over a year with multiple rock strikes and no cracks. *knocks on wood*
Does the Gladiator come with full time all-wheel-drive that can be used on roads like wet highways?
OEM bedliners are the best. I've had both OEM and after market in Rams and now the Gladiator. The after market ones are good, but the OEM is best.
Interior is very important in any vehicle to me
So what was the reason for the computer issues?
What was the problem
Damn that same thing happened to my Jeep Wagoneer back then. I think it was the battery cause it kept saying battery failure in OBD.
No way! Was is covered by the warranty?
5:06 same thing happening on Rams the same year trucks. Scared me to death several times on the highway. 2 weeks in the shop and said "nothing was wrong". Little do they know we have multiple fleet vehicles, same models, all doing it.
Time to go all electric with the Cybertruck!
@@Joe-Markus My friend's Tesla has been in the shop three times with battery issues. He was stuck at a shopping center because one of the batteries was faulty. He tried hard resetting it under the backseat where that is in the Model 3. He didnt have his car an everage of 6 months each time that happened. Pass for now.
uh - you're not going to say what the actual cause of the electrical issue was?
Next video!
@@Joe-Markus Sorry, would have subbed, but didn't, as you apparently failed to follow thru here.
what's the spacer's size?
1 inch
Damn, bro!
40 miles a day. Where do you live in Asia?
Lol!
That thing happened to me, exactly just like that all electronics went crazy but I've fixed it read below guys
What is up with TH-camrs that have Gladiators and call them cars?!?!?!? It's a truck or a JEEP; NEVER A CAR!!!!!!
Great review but please stop calling it a car.
*Jeep truck! Haha thanks for the support! 💪🏼
Why doesn't jeep just make a gorilla glass protector for the windshield! sticker it and be done with it! Geez Does anyone think of this shit or is it just me!
They have optional Gorilla Glass.
Thank you for the video. But to help your future videos, please use the word "guyz"less. t's very annoying. Sorry
40k? Lol. My Toyota is at 300k no issue. Lol
Tacoma?
@@familydad3241 tundra
Yeah BUT TFL showed their new Toyota Tacoma break on an easy trail! So love both brands and both can have problems.
Anybody that calls a Jeep a car has ZERO credibility. Go buy a Prius and do us all a favor.
