Jeep Wrangler / Gladiator

[Anonymous]

This is a super weird OP. Is it a marketing post?

I for one love the high speed death wobble and incessant electrical gremlins that plague modern Jeeps. It’s what you expect from a $50,000 mall cruiser.

Mine does not have either.

I hate jeeps and fervently hate anyone who drives one. The urge to slash the tires every time I see one is overpowering.

Mostly people drive Jeeps because driving a Jeep makes them happy. Literally NO ONE drives a Jeep Wrangler because they HAVE TO. They drive them because they enjoy it.

I’m sorry seeing happy people incites such anger in you. I hope things get better for you.

The Jeep culture is no longer what it used to represent. Aside from long standing owners and off-roaders, Jeeps today are “pavement princesses” driven by teen girls and the lacrosse mom / SAHM crowd as they see their Wrangler as the new “mini van”.
Most have no idea what the TRAIL RATED badge represents, many of these Jeeps will see anything more than parking lot puddles.

If you’re gonna drive a Jeep Wrangler or Gladiator, respect the lineage and understand the Jeep Wave and Jeepster credo “Jeeps helping Jeeps” and “Jeeps park next to other Jeeps”. Participate in #DuckDuckJeep because the Jeep community is unique in itself and traditions such as this are what separate Jeep owners from everyone else on the road today.

For many years, a Jeep “on the side of the road” was helped by other Jeep drivers. It was not uncommon to see a few Jeeps pulled up behind the disabled Jeep to lend a hand. Let’s get back to that America!!

The Jeep has been on American and foreign soil since 1941, not many other brands can say the same.

Remember you buy a Jeep for smiles per mile, not the miles per gallon!!

I own a 2010 Jeep Wrangler. But wut?

The wave and the Jeeps help Jeeps are real things. We are a family of Jeep owners - have three. My oldest kid is the poster child for Jeeps help Jeeps. He is always towing people, helping fix problems etc. it’s a nice culture. Oh and we all off road - no pavement princesses in our house. And I love getting ducked and ducking others.

Same/same

It’s a culture all it’s own. We’ve met so many great people at Jeep Jamborees, Camp Jeep, and other off-road events. Good, decent, wholesome people. The kind of people who help others they literally just met in the middle of the woods somewhere, just because those people like Jeeping, too.

They are a huge waste of money for what you get. Love my wrangler but I’d buy a real truck.

My Gladiator has all of the stuff your Wrangler does, plus the utility of a truck bed, how is that a waste?

I wanted to “want” a Gladiator soooo bad. A Mojave, specifically. God do I love the way they look. But I just couldn’t make one work for us. It’s just too small inside, and there’s four of us. That leaves ALL our cargo in the bed (and in the elements) on any trip or trail ride, unless two of us stay home. Yeah, yeah, I know they make tonoue covers and even bed caps, but it’s still too small inside.

The thing that ultimately made me go with another Unlimited was on solo/duo weekend trail trips where it’s just me or my wife, I/we sleep IN the Jeep, with the rear seats folded flat. There’s just no way to sleep flat in a Gladiator unless you’re in the bed.

I feel the exact same way about Audi, MB and BMW’s.

At least I can actually work on my Jeep, without having a $100k manufacturer-proprietary computer system to interface with the vehicle to reset the oil change light.
