Look, this will be my third Wrangler-style vehicle (JK, CJ5 & Gladiator in that order) and my 6th Jeep product overall so my post is obviously a bit biased. That being said, when you buy a Jeep, you probably know what you are getting into; they ride and look different. If you are looking for a vehicle that rides like a Bentley on the road, look elsewhere. If however you can accept reasonable creature comforts, ride, and noise while benefiting from extreme versatility, ruggedness, freedom, stable value and the timeless "cool" factor then this is the vehicle for you. Taking off the top and doors gets you as close to the freedoms of riding a motorcycle without having to wear a helmet. It really is a great time. Also, no other vehicle is as customizable as a Jeep. There are entire magazines devoted to it so you can make each one into your own. I've loved Jeeps but always needed a truck, now I can have both. My only two critiques are 1- the keyfob is the size of of a Zippo lighter which is unnecessarily large and 2- the soft top version of the Gladiator simply looks "off" -like something out of World War 2 which is perhaps why they are not selling well. Small concessions for what you get in return. The hard top is the way to go anyway for heat and noise. The new hardtop material is feather light and I can lift everything off by myself. Go buy one and don't look back. I will drive this thing until it or I are dead.

*10/18/21* update - I've been in the Gladiator for more than a year and over 20k miles. It's been outstanding. Reliable, powerful, tough. It's towed, hauled, and been topless. It's the most adaptable and fun truck you can own. *3/31/21* update - I'm approaching a year with my Gladiator and I've never been happier with a vehicle. In a world of dime-a-dozen, vauge-looking crossovers and gargantuan "full-size" trucks, the Gladiator stands out as an anachronism. For me, the size is just perfect. It's small enough that I can still pull it into the garage or park it side-by-side with my wife's Volvo XC60 in the driveway. It's big enough that I can carry four or five people plus gear. It's strong enough to take about anything you can throw at it and tows a 3,000-pound boat easily. Of course, it's 100% Jeep styling and function with a more supple ride than a Wrangler. Jeep hit a home-run with this one. Note: rear-window leak mentioned below was fixed under warranty. No water leaks anymore. *12/30/20* update - it's now relatively cold here in North Carolina and the Gladiator is still performing great. The Jeep heats up quickly and can get HOT fast. Seated heats and steering wheel are a big plus this time of year. The only issue I've had in about 8,500 miles is the rear glass on the hard top apparently came from the factory leaking around the seal. I've read in some Gladiator forums that this was a common issue on some early Gladiators. Chrysler is replacing the rear glass under warranty, however due to COVID it's taken two months at this point for the glass to come in. Thankfully it's a relatively minor leak. To be honest, I somewhat expect things like this to crop up on a new model vehicle in its first year. All in all though, the Gladiator has been fantastic. I've owned a '13 four-door JK Wrangler and an '18 Grand Cherokee so maybe I have a bit of pro-Jeep bias, BUT my new Gladiator Overland continues to impress me. It shares many parts with the new JL Wrangler, so of course the cabin comfort and quality of materials are head and shoulders above my JK Unlimited. Splurging for the 8.4-inch screen is worth it. The UConnect infotainment system is the most intuitive and best looking I've ever used. Driving-wise, I've only spent a limited amount of time in a JL Wrangler so I can't compare its driving experience to the Gladiator but as far as the JK is concerned the Gladiator is a vast improvement. It soaks up bumps and imperfections with ease. The truck bed is what sold me. I'm not a big off-roader so the compromises Jeep had to make with the longer frame are a fair trade-off to enjoy being able to haul things on the weekend/throw stuff in the back and get going. Wranglers aren't known for their cargo space, though my JKU wasn't too bad. The Gladiator just makes loading gear effortless. And unlike most other trucks you can reach right over the side of the bed and grab whatever you need. Another plus is the 3.6 Pentastar engine paired to the 8-speed auto transmission. The Pentastar is reliable and gets up to speed just fine with the 8-speed. Yes, you notice the Gladiator's additional weight but I think the Pentastar is completely suitable for this size vehicle. To top it off, the truck is a convertible and oozes personality. Are there cheaper options available in the mid-size truck category? Absolutely. Will those trucks put a smile on your face every day like the Jeep? To each his own, but I always look forward to getting behind the wheel of the Gladiator.

Bought a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon and at 76 miles and 3rd day ESS and CEL came on. Fault code was Multiple Cylinder misfire. Latest TSB didn't fix the issue. Still at dealership and they said they don't know but these vehicles have lot of engine issues. They don't have any resolution. Do your research about engine misfires before buying.....looks like they are repairing engines, replacing engines and buying back vehicles with no solution in sight. Its a shame that a vehicle above 50k price tag can't even make 100 miles.

We thought about buying a Gladiator for 4-5 months, never having owned a Jeep or Chrysler product. But we needed a 4WD we could configure (roof, doors, windshield) and that was off-road capable for fun, that could tow our boat or motorcycle, and that had a truck bed for dogs, tool box or trips to Home Depot. I should mention we are recently retired to the lake, so we don’t commute, the Gladiator is an occasional use errand, towing and hunting/ camping vehicle. OK, we have a white Sport S for a few days now and are amazed at this product’s features, solidity and quality fit & finish. We connected to the entertainment and other electronics such as nav in five minutes, everything worked instantly AND IT ALL WORKS TOGETHER. Popped the roof and stowed the panels, three minutes. Pulled over, threw it into 4H and took off through a brushy, wooded, rocky lot, easy. We love this truck. If there are any negatives they would be that this truck must be driven, it is torquey (surprising power in low gears) and a bit pitchy until you adjust your driving techniques (accelerator-brake). It will wander a bit if you do not drive it. The cabin is a bit small if you are used to a full size truck, especially for items like water bottles, phones, handguns, purses, etc. We’ll get that figured out. None of these things slowed us, we expected them going in. Back seat surprisingly comfortable. The V-6 is plenty, impressive torque at low speeds and acceleration from any speed. Pulls our boat easily, where the 4Runner was a bit iffy (mostly because 2WD). Very happy with our decision and enjoying this truck.

electrical/ sever aluminum build quality issues

7/20/22 door hing, door and hood are starting aluminum corrosion. No way to really fix as it will always come back and require all four doors and hood to be repainted. She is getting traded! ( And now the hard top rear window leaks badly!! This is depressing quality.... condensed update 4/16/21 Base Radio has been replaced three times and the update to fix everything, fixes nothing and causes a new black screen problem. Update, after a year of unfixable base radios jeep has refunded me the price of the radio...as they are all defective and they can't fix them. Aftermarket looks like the only solution. Cons: 1. All Jeep gladiators and wranglers will get the broken inner door weld eventually. A design flaw since the 2018 JL. Weld in the door breaks and makes a loud clicking sound every time you open or close the door. Jeep has ignored this problem and there is no fix. Continues in 2022 2. Rear outer locator pins on the hard top freedom panels will randomly break off pieces like chalk and drop them on your passenger's, jb weld plumbing putty and aluminum tape cover to them is the only real fix. 3. The lug nuts they use are from Rams, look sand blasted after one year. 4. Rear freedom panel outer latches will squeak horribly like styrofoam on styrofoam. Only fix is to add non friction tape. 5. Steering box TSB is a must and should be a recall. The stock aluminum box makes it want to wander all over the road. 6. All fuses came from the factory super loose and required me to push them all in properly. A problem since 2018. 7. Freedom panels came badly installed from the factory and required me to readjust them to prevent leaks. 8. Stock halogens headlights are like candles in the dark, unacceptable for 2020. 9. Plate around the rear bumper tow hook came from the factory with painted over rust that is now getting worse and has required removing of the bumper to properly sand down, treat and repaint. 10. Make sure you have the Jeep undecorated or it will rust away. 11.Hard top seals require meticulous care as the seal rubber is of cheap quality. Treat every six months. 12. Leaking Hard top rear window is extremely difficult to replace for dealership without causing damage. 13. Had to add bushing safe high heat grease to exhaust bushing under driver side. With movement makes a loud crunching sound like a shock going bad. Redone every year. Pros: 1. Nice ride, bit jittery. 2. Plenty of power. 3. Paint is stronger than Japanese brands. 4. 4x4 with Limited slip differential work well with snow tires. Honestly it has become a on and off love/hate relationship with my gladiator due to how Jeep treated a long time repeat customer.( Which took over a year to issue a refund since radio is unfixable) It's not just my case either they now have the worst customer satisfaction of any north American dealership brands. It will be a long, long time before I buy another. Each new year has less build quality than the last sadly.

After driving my Gladiator for less than a day, it had multiple system failures related to a clockspring issue that I've read some Wranglers have also had. The issue took a maddeningly long time to resolve, but ultimately Jeep made it right for me. Otherwise, I thought the Gladiator had a very well thought out design with an intuitive controls layout, add to that the ability of making it topless and it’s still a truck that I hope to hold onto. It took 10 minutes yesterday to remove our hardtop and go driving, I don’t think the process could have been easier.

i wasnt the first on the block to get one, but i finally gave in because the gladiator is a true half breed, unlike me, with good seating for five - or two and a big greyhound-plus, a small sized truck bed that can be easily converted to a full seven foot bed with an aftermarket bed extender gate that fits over that great new lightweight tail gate...i can handle it with one hand- no sweat...i have the s model so it has lots of toys inside...compared to my 1 ton dual wheel ram cummins the gladiator rides like a caddy...well, the ram is 28 years old and came from the indian res in new mexico..the turbo diesel has just enough torque to pull my 2 story house off the foundation and across the street...i have no regrets getting the gladiator and its no wonder there is a gold rush stampede for others to get theirs too...

I've purchased and leased many vehicles over the years, many of them from luxury brands, but none of them have the charm and likeability of this Gladiator. My wife and kids love this vehicle even more than me. I love the no-nonsense structure and quality of materials. BIG THUMBS UP.

Update Sept 2022 just turned 49k miles. Only 1 issue outlined below which was covered by warranty. Consistent 26 mpg hiwy, 24 mpg mixed use driving. Been very pleased so far. Logged 2 more trips Smokey Mtns natl park. Headed to utah natl parks April 2023 will update after that trip. Update March 2022 I've now had my Gladiator more than 2 years approaching 38K miles. I've experienced 1 Issue which was corrected under warranty - A small leak around rear window (hard top) during heavy rain. Dealer replaced rear window under warranty. Problem corrected. Only issue in 37K miles. Still very pleased with this truck. I've taken from Florida to Maine and Back. Performed very well off road in Baxter State Park. Does very well off road Smokey Mtn's Natial Park. Gas Mileage has been better than expected. I normally get 26-27 MPG on the highway. Headed to Arizona and Utah later this year to hit the National Parks. Will provide another update after that trip. Update: August2020: I've now had my Gladiator 10 months, 13k miles. I like/enjoy this truck more by the day. Fun to drive, handles good on road and off road. NO issues, mpg us up from first few months. 27mpg hey, 24 mpg around town. I have the 3.73 axle. This has been a great purchase for me. Original post: This is my 2nd Jeep (still have the first one - 2012 Wrangler ordered new) This is my 5th truck. I've had F150, Silverado 1500 (2) and Silverado 2500 all 4x4's, this Gladiator is by far the best of the group in my opinion. I've logged 2500 miles since taking delivery just before Thanksgiving. I've drove from Jacksonville to Avon Park to take delivery. I've had it out on the farm in Alachua, Fl and over to Tallahassee on a hunting trip and up to our farm outside of Ashville, NC 2 times already. Off road its been great - as expected. Easy to maneuver, navigate in tight areas. Big plus over F150 and Chevy 2500. Gas Mileage on the highway at 70 MPH with Cruise Control is 24 MPG. Around town in Jacksonville, Fl, average 22 MPG. I really like the Stop/Start feature. Helps with the mpg around town. I also have the Blind Spot monitoring and backup sensors, I really like these features and highly recommend them. Both of these Help on the highway and when backing up. Interior is comfortable and well laid out. Very comfortable on the highway. I have the Sport S hardtop model with max towing, limited slip rear axle, and all the different safety packages that are available. I purchase all my vehicles new. This is the first one that I have purchased that has NOT GONE BACK to the dealer within the first 5K miles with something not working correctly. In my case, all the bugs were worked out prior to me taking delivery. I could not be happier. I really like this truck.

I was fortunate to get one of the 4k launch editions, so it's loaded with every option. I was hesitant to trade in my Sierra Denali for this because I feared it would not be a good jeep or a good truck, just be one of those poor executions of putting both together...instead I got a "FUN" truck and I'm very pleased with it! There has been a problem with the UConnect system and no fix in sight, but other than that, a good 3k miles!

It's a truck, it's a convertible...it's a Jeep! Win win win! Mine handles great! I enjoy the heat package on chilly days. Yes, I've used heat package going topless. Although, I do wish its back seat heat/cooling was designed more efficiently. Once in awhile on the highway, my soft top makes a funky noise, but not often. My mpg around town is 17. On a couple of trips to SC, I got 26.9. Being a midsize truck, it doesn't have the room my full size 4dr Ram had, but I work with it. On trips, I've tented the rear seat a few times and slept there and was relatively comfortable. I do like the storage under seat the rear seats and that they're 60/40 split. Haven't found a good fitting, reasonable priced rear seat cover package though. I'm hoping to get a folding bed cover to keep bed usable in snow/rain. I've done a little bit of "seasonal" off roading, it did very well even though I still have the puppy stock tires. I wish beefier tires were standard. Overall, I'm lovin, and enjoying my Jeep!

Having never been in a Jeep, I expected some wind noise. The wind noise and rattling top was excessive. To be fair, was very windy driving across NM into north Texas. It rattled so much that driver side roof latch disengaged when driving 70. Had to emergency stop so the entire soft top didn't rip off. Truck has only 10k on it. Plus you feel intense heat from roof. AC can't keep up with the radiating heat. If you buy one, recommend the hard top, or at least the premium soft top. But it's fantasy off road. The seats need to allow more leg room if your tall. The bed is perfect size. I like it overall, but not the soft top on the highway.

My boyfriend traded in 2016 F350 Platium 4x4 diesel low miles for this pickup due to not needing big truck anymore. I was very skeptical on this vehicle to begin with but he liked it and thought it was cool. I always accessorize all my vehicles went through all that expense. My boyfriend immediately said that something was wrong with the steering and was going to take it back to the dealership then all of a sudden the check engine light comes on we only have 2,000 miles on this vehicle. Took it to the dealership they told him it was bad gas which I thought was weird. Took it back home after the check engine light was off and it came back on again. Took a back to the dealership again it sat there for a week because they said their diagnostic machine was down. I just told my boyfriend I think it's a lemon get rid of it. Even if they fix it it may still keep having problems. This cured me from ever buying a Jeep again. Took a huge loss on his trade in of this vehicle. Dealership says there's no such thing as lemon law and I didn't want to fight. I will still complain to Jeep Corporation.
don't buy yet, maybe never...wait and see

I bought this Jeep and got a lemon. It had issues the first day I bought it, and after months and months of issues, Jeep finally agreed to buy it back. Over 10 trips to different dealerships, no one could fix it, even though they involved Chrysler engineers. This is a new vehicle, and there will be more lemons and issues than an established model, but this is not a vehicle I would buy again, even if I knew I was not going to get a lemon. One reason is we were not treated well by Jeep Cares. We had to go thru hoops, leave the truck for a week at a time at the dealership while the pondered the issue - over and over. Told the issue was bad gas, told to run tanks of premium gas thru it, although it came day one with issues - which if it were bad gas, all Gladiators would have the same issues. So after being a 15 year long loyal Jeep customer, I was shocked and staggered at the lack of care, the retractions of what they said they would do etc... Very disappointing. But the Jeep itself had design issues for me. One is that the gas tank is small, and gas mileage so low that you could not go far on a tank of gas. I went on one long road trip and was having to refill every three hundred miles. The other is for the price, you don't get the features of other trucks at the same price. The truck I bought didn't have keyless entry and autostart. The radio and lights didn't work all the time, flashed off. Maybe that was part of the problem the engine was having. Not sure, just seemed flaky. I like the look and the drive was rough and loud, but it's a Jeep, so that was OK for me. Another concern of mine is that when I went on a long trip, from Milwaukee to Tucson, I saw two other Gladiator's the entire trip. Two. I saw hundreds and hundreds of trucks, I drove thru Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico (so maybe thousands of trucks!) - but I only saw two Gladiators. It's very concerning they are not selling well at all. I feel it's the price point for what you get and word of mouth of initial issues. So now I am back to looking for a new truck, and because of Jeep's poor treatment of me and my issues and because of the small gas tank, and known problems with the Gladiator I am definitely not going to get a Gladiator.

Traded my 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited for a 2020 Overland. It is so much easier to load my kayak into the bed than install the roof racks, hoist the kayak over 6’ in the air, and strap it down. The interior is better done than the JKU and it rides better than my Sahara even though it’s a pickup truck. Compare the models before buying. The 2020 Mojave I drove was better equipped but the steering wander was awful. The Overland is a perfect daily driver. My 4th and probably at my age last Jeep. All the fun of a Wrangler with the flexibility of a pickup truck.

It's a Jeep. It's a truck. It's got legendary off-road capability. It's got 1600lb payload and 7650lb towing capacity. It's got classic Jeep mechanics. It's got modern technology for comfort and performance. It really does get 20mpg+ after you get to know how it drives. It's also easy to work on (mostly, spark plugs and other 100k mile maintenance stuff will be a pain to get at). To me, this is the perfect vehicle.

Love This Truck!

We purchased a white overland to replace my white overland grand cherokee that was totaled when a woman turned in front of me. So far it is great! We needed a truck to haul things and we have always been jeep lovers. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because I'm one of those people that loves the luxury/technology in the SUV's and trucks are a little more basic. It drives amazing, you would have no idea you are driving a truck other than the height and the power you feel. Can't wait until the spring when we can open it all up. We have a 6 month old that does great in it, plenty of room. She must love it too because she has gotten back into sleeping while we are driving, (possibility that Tom Petty is playing a roll on that since we have him on Sirius radio). Really excited to take it camping and grab some accessories because there are so many different options.

Know that you're buying a Jeep, so road noise is going to be a issue if you're like me coming from a F-150 or just some regular car. But overall I love this truck it's amazing so far and it's everything that I wanted.

Nice looking truck and cool features. I was enamored with this truck when it first came out I had to have one. First thing I did take a 1500 mile road trip.decent MPG on the highway at one point 23.2 but it drives like a brick if anyone is taller than 6 feet like I am it is horribly uncormfortable not enough leg space and the dang 4x4 shifter digs into my right knee. by the time I got half way to Kansas I was ready to trade the thing in and god forbid if you have any wind blowing across the truck It totally beat me down! now time to park it and drive the old beater for awhile and trade it in when the time is right!

Blown head Gasket and cylinder miss fires

This jeep has been to the dealership multiple times. First time was for the right side head gasket. Now it's fixed and 5k miles later running rough as can be. Electrical missfires on multiple cylinders. I fear we have a truck that will soon be out of warranty and costly to keep as much as we love this truck. So sad.

This is exactly as advertised. It is an extremely capable off-road vehicle that rides rough and sloppy on the highway. If you just need a truck, this is not a good choice. But, if you need a truck that can hit the trails... wow, wow, wow. We’ve tackled several trails, including Black Bear Pass. I would have given the rating 5 stars, but as stated earlier, it doesn’t handle that great on the highway and has had a few FCA issues covered by warranty. Overall we love it. 3-year update: This Gladiator has been far more reliable than my Honda Pilot and CRV. I hesitated to make my initial purchase because of the rated reliability between Honda and Jeep. Loving the glady!

Best truck I have ever owned

This truck holds up well. I moved my niece from Iowa to Texas with all of her stuff that she brought. It has been rear-ended/ side swiped only had fender damage a little bit of paint missing, while the suv had its whole front bumper ripped off. Over 25,000 miles on it since May 2020. The gas mileage could be better but overall in a world where vehicles are not meant to last anymore it is very impressive.
Top of the line Mojave!

We have a 2020 Mohave that we thorough enjoy in the warm northeastern months to go topless and doorless, esp at the Del/MD shores. We have had very little maintenance issues and get oil/filters changed on time. The transmission did have to be replaced at less than 40,000 miles. The only things we tow are a small landscape trailer and 3,500 lb camper (4x). Not sure if the failing transmission was a fluke or an issue for Jeep. We're considering a special order for the maximum tow capacity (Sport).

JEEP Gladiator NEW and service-Worst Service Ever

I recently purchased a brand new, 2022, Jeep Gladiator Mojave edition. Beautiful. I sold my 2017 Jeep Chief Edition - great car with 13,000 miles. The Gladiator quit with 1,900 miles. I had to have it towed in, which was an experience in itself, since it was dead and the push start would not work. Took about an hour to get it into Neutral so we could move it. Upon taking it to the local Jeep dealership - nothing for 2 days until I called them. Answer - we are to busy, we will look at it in 3 more days. Again, brand new with 1,900 miles. I received an email from Jeep Wave to check on me. I promptly returned the call - NO RESPONSE. A week later, I called again - NO RESPONSE. Again, the worst service on any car I have ever had - and this is my 4th JEEP no less. Finally, dealer called - we are looking at 10 days + to get a part. That was 15 days ago - still no response, my brand new JEEP Gladiator is sitting in the lot at the dealer. $61K - so sad. I'm getting ready to hire a lawyer. I think after 4 weeks and the worst response ever, its warranted.

I needed a truck to tow my side by sides and didn't want to spend a ton on a full size truck. My Gladiator can tow 6k lbs. My trailer loaded is only 3k lbs so it tows it good. It's fun we remove the doors and tops in the summer and the heated seats and wheel is nice in the winter. mileage dips down to 19 mpg in the winter to 24 mpg in the summer. No issues at 16k miles it's a 21 sport s. May change over time but we will see!!

Quality control is a real issue

I've owned 4 Jeeps before this and this Gladiator will be my last. While I enjoyed the design and convenience of having a truck bed with the ability to go anywhere I wanted, quality control is very poor. Before reaching 30k miles I experienced issues and replacements of the following; Radio, Stop/Start feature, both batteries, front shocks needed replacement, both sun visors broke, and an annoying loud squeak that has yet to be resolved by the dealership or by Jeep corporate. The truck has never even seen the dirt. Before you dismiss this as having just bad luck or just gotten a bad lemon I offer the sun-visors as a small example of the cultural issues plaguing Jeep and Stellantis's attitude towards the brand and it's customers. The sun-visors in the Jeep have a rubber grommet which holds the visor. Under a normal amount of stress the grommet can dry out and the weight of the sun visor makes it disconnect from the headliner area and hang down in front of the driver or passenger. This issue was also prevalent in the previous JK models. In fact Jeep has so ignored the issue that 3rd party suppliers have designed a solution and are selling a small support bracket for around $10 or so in order to support the visor and keep the issue from happening. The Jeep following is very loyal due to what Jeep supposedly represents and they know most Jeep people will just complain but put up with it. Stellantis has decided to monetize that loyalty to the detriment of their product. If you can get past the quality control issues, the vehicle otherwise is comfortable compared to prior models, has decent power, storage, and the truck bed is definitely helpful in home improvement projects. It's not as good as a regular truck and not as good as Jeep Wrangler but the combination will be desirable to a certain segment of the population. While I wanted to give the truck better ratings, the quality control issues are too numerous and too much of a hassle to consider this a vehicle worth purchasing. My advice is to purchase something else after the competition has forced Jeep to have a better attitude towards their quality control issues.

I bought a 2021 Gladiator Sport with the 8 speed auto trans., Heavy Duty Tow Package what a joke. I attempted to tow my 21 ft. Bennigton Pontoon Boat ( 3000 lbs) trailer boat and motor. The truck strained in every gear and did NOT want to get out of 4 th gear. I went to manual shift and it fell on its face in anything above 5th gear. This is rated to tow 7300 lbs never happen. NOT A REAL TRUCK. I HAVE OWNED 5 JEEPS I HAVE A CALL OF DUTY RUBICON IT TOWS BETTER EXTREMELY DISAPOINTED!!!!!!! ps. the damn thing wanders which was a problem in all the write ups. $45000.00 poorly invested!

The convertible Jeep Gladiator killed my sister on her birthday Aug 10, 2021 in Florida. Check the “Death Wobble”. She was driving on a beautiful day in Florida on Aug 10, 2020 with little traffic. She was turning off on an exit she took many times. When she turned the vehicle wobbled and overcompensated the turn and she hit a guardrail. The Jeep Gladiator flipped 2x and she was partially decapitated and died immediately. Attorneys were approached concerning a wrongful death and we were told although Jeep has been investigated for the “Death Wobble”, the company was too powerful and they would not take the case. Anyone you know that wants to buy this vehicle? If you care about them - stop them. The vehicle is a coffin.

An updated interior and cool looks. Other than that, it's the same old bumpy and noisy Jeep from days gone by. This truck will change lanes if you hit a sizable bump on the highway.
