Looks like a model-T.

I've just recently started watching your videos, and one thing I've noticed that I really appreciate about your reviews--is that they're positive. Sure, most cars aren't perfect, but despite that, you find the good in the vehicle and focus on that rather than the bad. I've seen a lot of channels that are constantly negative, and it's gets annoying to watch. So, kudos to you guys! Keep up the great videos!

I was never a Jeep or a truck person, but I rented a Rubicon while in Hawaii recently, and there was some a serious off-road & rock crawl road I took it on, I was insanely shocked with how effortless it climbed over everything, so now I would definitely own one of these as a 3rd car. Although the best off-roading experience I've had was with a crazy Defender in Iceland a few months back, nothing beats that thing!

Great review . I'm sold. You guy's are a great team. Very entertaining band great editing.

Reply the first time because you guys mentioned the Top Gear Cool Wall!!! You guys are cool!

Your camera angles are the very best in the business, hands down! Keep up the fantastic work.

Nice overview on this beast! Looks like you guys had fun wheelin

There is actually a spot to slide in a 2x6" piece of wood across the bed between the wheel wells and tailgate so the drywall won't break!

I work at the Jeep plant, I love the way both the Wrangler and Gladiator look when I see them all as I'm leaving every night. I think I like the Gladiator just a little more but the new Wranglers are super good looking as well. I don't like hearing that there's still the loose steering issue with the Gladiators now though :/

That off-roading segment was awesome! I also learned glad has wider track than wrangler. I didn’t hear that in the other videos I watched from this press launch.

You guys nail it with the 360 cam shots. So good

Id love to see you two test that J6 concept they are considering. That's what I really want, a 2 door version of this. Glad is just too big for where I live.

So, I'm not going to read through all 514 comments, but from what I can tell, nobody has mentioned this yet: At 5:56, Yuri said that his one buddy pointed out that if you put drywall in the bed, it'll crack from sitting on the wheel wells. That might be true, but if you use the features in the bed that you can see at 5:52, your drywall should be fine. Look on top of the wheel well. See that little indent that's about the size of a 2x4 piece of lumber? Lay said piece of lumber flat from side-to-side. Also, see the little vertical indent just behind the wheel well that's about the size of a 2x6? Stick a piece of said 2x6 in there vertically from side to side and BOOM! Instant drywall shelf. Jakub, check your Raptor. I bet your bed has similar features.

I think the Gladiator measures about 45" between the wheel wells...it sucks that they couldn't make it just 48.5" to accommodate people who haul sheet goods. It's the primary reason why I will never buy any midsize truck.

I really like this Jeep Gladiator. I used to have a 2013 Wrangler 4 door and I liked it a lot, but it was slow, especially with the manual. I never went off-roading in it so I guess I used it as a lifestyle vehicle. I got it because of the soft-top and it was a manual. Now I have a ND Miata and I would say it is a lifestyle vehicle too. The off-roading footage and camera angles are awesome, you really showed off the Gladiator's capabilities.

this video will catapult this channel!! get'em fellas

13:36 - "Trail Rated" status may be determined by engineers as you said but it is also a marketing "gimmick" used to entice buyers. It is a branded message designed to communicate higher off road capabilities over other market offerings that is literally adhered to the side of the vehicle (fits my definition of gimmick, but perhaps not everyone's). Not trying to ruffle feathers here, but if I were told it is not a marketing gimmick by a "presentation guy" who is paid to market the Gladiator at a Jeep off road (marketing) event, I wouldn't trust that messaging. Love your honest takes and opinions in all of your videos, but that bit made me raise a brow lol. Anyway, It looks strange, but less strange the longer you look at it. I'd take a regular rubicon if I had to choose one or the other.

Dude, the 3.6 has been around for decades at this point, they aren’t bad motors at all. The newer 8 speed transmissions are much better than the 5 and 6’s were 10 years ago.
