Perfect for me

2022 Jeep Gladiator Sport S 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (3.6L 6cyl 6M)

I highly recommend the Sport S with the Max Tow Package. Torquey and smooth, the automatic 8-speed transmission is pretty nice with the trusty 3.6 L V6. It's a real hauler or puller when I need it, it's articulation is great for some off road adventures and is comfortable on the highway. Plus, the sticker on my door has a rated payload of 1465 lbs! Don't let them tell you it's not "Jeep" enough or it's not "truck" enough or it's not comfy enough. Get the customer preferred package with hard top and stick with the M+S rated all terrains for smooth and quiet daily driving. This is a perfect niche vehicle for some people!

2022 Jeep Gladiator Willys 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (3.6L 6cyl 6M)
32 of 33 people found this review helpful

Prior to purchase of our new '22 Gladiator Willy's Sport, we were previously looking at a new JL '22 Wrangler 2 door Willy's to replace a '14 Jeep Patriot (2.4l, 4WD, 5spd manual). We had thought we had what we wanted sorted out, particularly being a Manual Transmission and were planning to special order the Wrangler, but we wanted to test drive a manual beforehand. A local dealer had only one manual transmission truck on the lot, a '22 Gladiator Mojave (3.6l, 4.10 rear, 6spd manual). That's where we learned the master cylinder for the manual trans used in the JT & JL's has horrible feel. It's easy enough, but lacks feel for the engagement point. Also, the manual trans gearing is way too tall for the final gear ratios selected. If it had 4.88's stock, it would be a lot better with the manual, literally too tall to use 6th on the highway unless you're breaking the speed limit. We did come away with a great appreciation for Gladiator itself since it could actually replace two vehicles instead of one and decided to further investigate and test drive an 8spd Automatic one. It's a completely different truck with the well matched gear ratios of the 8spd Automatic transmission, even with the base diff 3.73 final gearing. We tested several others, including a base Sport model (3.73 rear) with a manual 6spd again just to confirm the clutch feel was that way across the board and a Sport S with the Max Tow package (4.10 gearing & 8spd automatic trans, stiffer suspension/firmer truck like ride, etc) to narrow down the drivetrain options. We decided on the base gas 3.6l Willy's Sport, with the 8spd automatic and factory tow hitch as the only options. With these trucks, there's only 4wd, even stock you get dual Dana 44 rears. The Willys package adds a Limited Slip Rear differential, aluminum rims w/ mud terrain tires, rock rails and appearance features like a blacked out grill & bumper, tinted windows, painted fenders and retro decals. What makes these specials compared to their other mid-size counterparts isn't entirely about what you get with them, but what they don't come with. Manual windows, manual locks, manual seats, manual transfer case (less to fail), basic screen display, actual manual knob controls instead of the screen, basic & functional plastic interior, minimal Nanny Devices, etc. Simple & durable over the long haul. As for what comes standard, Dana 44 solid front & rear axles, 3.73 gearing, A/C, Cruise Control (an option on almost all other mid size trucks), 4/7 way trailer wiring, floor drains, lockable interior storage, LED bed lights, trans/fuel tank skids, a convertible top, 8 speaker stereo std, brake-lock diffs, etc. Let's not forget that it's the most capable 4WD mid-size truck, even the base models work well off-road and the aftermarket support if you want to modify is endless. This isn't the truck for everyone. Those that basically want a car with a truck bed or expect that level of luxury & quietness may not like the simplicity of the Gladiator. The Gladiator is like a New-Old truck, just refined. It's narrow enough (just like the JL) and has the right running gear to get into some serious off-roading, and the electronics don't get in the way while doing so unlike other brands. It rides superbly well for a solid front axle vehicle. The windshields are prone to cracking from stones due to the angle. There is some extra noise, especially with a soft top, but it's much less then you'd expect short of when it's raining. The exterior door hinges are prone to chipping paint sheerly because of the fact that they are designed for easy removal and stick out. The 3.6l V6 is a little chattery, but it's normal and runs well. Oil changes are a breeze with the top mount oil filter. Also, the heater in these is exceptionally good! Heats up very quickly and will literally fry your fingers like a hot dog. The standard 8 speaker stereo sounds fantastic. The Android Auto and screen are easy to use. The back-up camera is very clear. The soft top is very easy to drop on a nice day and makes clear warm night drives extra special. The hard top panels are easy to remove too. The fuel economy is exceptional for a 4,700 pound truck with a non-direct injected gas engine. I'm getting 18mpg on stock running gear in the city & 22 unladden on the highway. It tows my 3,000.lb loaded trailer without breaking a sweat (the 8spd auto/gas V6/3.73 gearing max tow capacity at 6,000.lbs). The ZF 8spd auto is one of the best modern "too many gears" automatics. It's always in the correct gear for the situation, doesn't "hunt" around or automatically upshift to 8th when you're barely spinning enough RPM's for 5th. It'll automatically downshift to use engine braking on declines as well. Shifting is smooth. The manual transfer case shifts better as it gets used (breaks in/meshes between range shifting) and works as it should. Fit & finish is better than my decades worth of GM's (which I still own, LOL). Seats are firm but comfortable. The rears are easy to fold-up or remove. Also should note, they are built at the original Willy's-Overland plant in Toledo, OH where all the Wranglers and the original Gladiator trucks were built. After 5,000 miles, and more than a few of those earning a few Jeep Honor Trail badges and clambering off-road, it's holding up exceptionally well. No trips back to the dealer for warranty issues yet either. It's everything you need and nothing you don't.

I drove it from Richmond Va. to Orlando fl. And back. The average was 30.1 mpg. Not bad. Got the deal from Dotta Chrysler Jeep in Pa. They delivered to Richmond. Va. I asked a little more for my trade and they agreed. Chris is a working sales guy. A regular guy. No hype. See Chris. It is a sport s diesel. Not a choice on Edmonds.

Yes, I paid for it, but guess what, I'm 71, I drive the crap out of it. It doesn't take no for an answer. I live in the Atchafalaya Basin, in the only community within the Atchafalaya River flood basin levee. This vehicle puts my boat where I need it, my camper where it doesn't like it. I've overtowed with it, but don't tell anybody. I don't know if it will outlive me, but I'll give it a chance.

Owned 2 Months. This is truly the most fun vehicle out there. So much utility. It should be called the “Transformer”. It quickly transforms from a beach buggy, ATV, pick-up truck, highway or around-town VW Thing-like vehicle, open air transporter, convertible, or to a fine dining transport. Especially if you’re an outdoor person. It handles backroads, skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, biking, canoeing, kayaking, dunes cruising, towing many different things, and on and on, and on. Limitless. During the last 2 months, I’ve had no problems and loads of fun. I chose a boatload of options, but after delivery added side steps, sill protectors, LED headlights; bed mat (over molar sprayed bed liner), and a few trailer hitch accessories.

For 15 years I’ve been a dodge guy and a lot of my fleet vehicles are Fords. I knew within 3 miles that this was exactly what I’ve always wanted. Not a cheap ride, but worth every penny in my opinion.

At 15k miles, my Jeep would blow a cloud of blue smoke. Mechanic said it would need in-depth engine work. Even though it was under warranty, I traded it in on a Dodge 1500. I paid $72k for the Jeep maxed out Rubicon. I was given $50k on trade-in. Lost $22k in less than 6 months. I won't have another one.

I bought the new 2023 Gladiator Freedom Edition in November of 2022. I only put 2000 miles on it. I was in a heavy traffic area with many tractor trailers all around me. I came to a stop light and when I went to accelerate when the light turned green it wouldn't move!! It just would not move after pressing the gas pedal. I was almost hit by a tractor trailer who had to violently swerve to miss me. After the 4th attempt of putting it in park and turning it off and starting, it finally moved. I was traumatized over this as there were many tractor trailers traveling at high speed around me and I definitely couldn't get out of the vehicle. Its at a dealer now and I'm currently pursuing a lemon law case.

This is a really cool vehicle with any platform engine offered. The turbo diesel however has a ton of power and will get you rolling in a quick manner. Love this thing! Update after 5000 miles this truck continues to be a versatile, powerful and economic truck. Living in the Appalachian Mountains doesn’t typically allow for good fuel economy, yet refilled an empty tank that averaged miles per gallon on Sunday. Update approaching 20,000 miles and still no problems whatsoever and fuel mileage has improved. I now never average under 22 mpg. And most of the time the average for a tank of fuel is above 24 mpg in the mountains. Still an awesome vehicle with tons of power for the platform.

2022 Gladiator Willys for the Win!

Purchased my Labor Day weekend 2022. It came outfitted with 20in rims, 35 inch tires and fox shocks. I was driving by and the Gobi color made me circle the block. I was in 2020 Volvo XC60 R design that I traded in and have not missed. The Gladiator now has 30k miles in almost two years. Oil changes is all I have been to the dealer for. It isn’t for everyone, but I love the simplicity of the drive train, the lack of nanny computer driving assist. It reminds me of classic pick ups with modern conveniences. It has become my favorite vehicle-ever. Any day is a better day with the freedom panels off. Gladiator

This jeep is fun. We take it 4x4, or put bikes in the back, or just slither through sandy trails. In between excursions you'll find us running errands with it because it's just fun to drive. ours only has 10k miles on it, but seems to be reliable as we don't need to abuse it just to have fun. See that steep mountain over there...or river... or sandy riverbed...go for it!

Death wobble fixed

I'm five months in now with about 4,000 miles on a 23 Freedom Edition (60,800 MSRP) pretty loaded... I did get 30% off, and a good trade on an 18 Renegade (good car) but had to drive 500 miles to do so. So, with like 17 miles on the Odometer, driving the 500 miles home I had the "death wobble" hit on the way home. Took it to the dealer and they fixed it easily. They essentially put it up, loosen then retighten all fasteners to specs, ensure alignment and balance, reduce factory PSI's to norms listed and no problems since. The problem with old school front ends and solid axles and reciprocating power steering that isn't rack and pinion is a certain finickyness. The advantage is the Trail Rating badge. The Gladiator advantage over a Wrangler is a truck bed... Since that first fix, I love the truck/jeep. I have a 22 Ram 2500 primarily for towing our travel trailer and it is wonderful for that, but not so much as a daily driver. It frankly is a beast of a vehicle. The Renegade was a great daily driver and even very good on National Forest roads but you couldn't put anything in it and it had its inherent limitations for off roading. and it was NO GOOD going to the transfer station for trash runs. The Gladiator is perfect. I"m still getting used to the location of things like the power window switches. It rides like an old school truck even more so than the HD 2500 with less comfort, but for a daily driver that also can haul stuff around it is great. It has little inside storage up front so I recommend buying all the little inexpensive storage fixes online for it. You will find them... They help. It fits in parking spaces, handles surprisingly well for solid axles, the hard top sections above the front seat come off easy so you effectively have a sun roof and if you want you can take the whole top off and the doors if that is your kind of thing. I'd get the bedliner OEM if possible as the FCA/Chrysler OEM bedliners are imho the best and that's 600 to 800 you won't have to spend after market. Mileage isn't great at like 17/18 mixed daily driving but I have flirted with 22 on highways in the 65/70 MPH range already and I know it will get better in the first 10K miles. The auto transmission is a dream never hunts for gears, engine brakes well down passes. And best? living in MT, there are quite a few off road trails I have had to turn back on in the past. I now will NOT have to do so. When we go to like the Black Hills and Iron Mountain Road and the Needles Highway, we can pop the top. Oh, it sucks on washboard just like most trucks put it in 4WD before even trying as it helps. I still remember how good the Renegade surprisingly was on washboard in Sand Mode. It climbs like an SOB and you will want to get an after market bed liner. Do not get a three fold one but get a good roll up version. The folding types defeat the purpose of having a bed. You can get them inexpensive (under 300 bucks) or an arm and a leg online. If you didn't get an OEM bedliner, get that at 600 to 800 bucks and your set. Update: Still loving it. It is NOT a cushy comfy ride for sure. It's more like old school cars in many respects. The Renegade we had was a surprisingly nice vehicle for four years and a very nice Montana car. It was cushy in comparison in terms of ride. We have had rams and have a 2500 Laramie for pulling the travel trailer. Now, that is a comfy cushy ride. But, the Gladiator has all the basics. AND it will go places other things won't. I don't hesitate now to make that turn off the national forest road where I wouldn't even think of it in the Renegade. Oh, and the Granite Crystal Freedom was like getting a FREE night edition. I see Jeep finally brought a "Nighthawk" night like edition out. It costs 2700ish bucks if I am not mistaken. I got mine free... Right now the best one to get is a Willy's version. It isn't a cosmetic one with a rear locker like a Mojave, raised fenders (bigger wheels) like a Rubicon, wide axles and Aux switches. It's ready to accessorize if you know what I mean.

Manual transmission with a tow package. How can I complain. I love transmissions and I have a brand new truck the screen is awesome. I am in love with this truck. I have roll down windows and no power locks but this is a jeep, getting tires and rails so I have a step for getting in the vehicle are really the only upgrades you need.

Gladiator Mojave 2021

LOVE my truck. 100% open air convertible top with 73k daily driver with no issues so far. The handling and ride quality with the tricked out Mojave suspension is much better than the other trim levels and the cab is big enough to fit adults in the back seat very comfortably. The wind and road noise is a thing but not a major issue. The 3.6 V6 is a good reliable engine with a proven track record. You need to get it high in the RPM range to get the power and it could use more low end torque but it works well enough. Bottom line is if you’re in the market for a mid size truck I highly recommend taking a Gladiator Mojave for a test drive. If you can handle a little extra road noise it’s the one to get.

1st 2020 jeep gladiator rubican, 2nd gladiator rubicon 2024 love the new seats and interior like the new grill. My personal review it's a jeep it comes with all the quirky thing that a jeep comes with, but here's the why it's the only truck that makes me smile when I start it and shift to drive. As far as the jeep community there great lots of fun and questions. For me reliable I put 45k miles on my 1st one and the 550 miles on my 2024. I looked around for a replacement for my 2020 jeep gladiator test drove toyotas gmc chevy sorry ford not for me so I purchase a new jeep gladiator That's my story good luck every one Like I said it makes me smile there's the why for me thanks

Improve a Rubicon Hard Rock? YES you can!

Originally owned a Rubicon Hard Rock.... LOVED IT! When Jeep teased the Gladiator I knew it was perfect for my needs... but is it really that good? Waited 4 years and after test driving and purchasing, I can say that it was truly worth the wait! 2023 Gladiator Rubicon took everything from the Hard Rock and dumped it on the Gladiator! 4 to 1 transfer case, 4.10 to 1 electronic locking difs / front sway bar disconnect... All of it! Even added a little touch with the off road + switch. The difference in driving a Wrangler and a Gladiator is a pleasant surprise, the same off road characteristics, shimmy shakes etc., but muted. The Gladiator rides like a pick up that is fighting you to get off the road and onto the trail. Get off the road and it smooths out like a car goes from gravel to a paved road. Smooth as silk. Improvements over the years could have been made... it's past time to flip the steering system to keep it out of the way. Trailing arms, springs, and track bar should have been upsized on the higher trim levels instead of having to swap after market. Jeep knows a winch is going on the front so it's time to put beefier stuff up front so you can add the winch and bumper without having to add to the suspension for the added weight. Winch ready bumpers are not winch ready... you have to buy the additional winch plate. After market light mounts should be standard at least on the bumper. Especially for the price paid. This is the best of both worlds... and removeable top and doors? need I say more.

Absolutely love this Jeep in all black. Test drove all different kinds of trucks and SUV’s including the Bronco and let’s face it Ford tried but just couldn’t match what Jeep’s been doing for years. The exterior looks awesome but functionally 2 things stuck out immediately, the interior layout and the top removal. The hard tops are heavy and hard to remove. The soft top was clunky and the rear window didn’t open. I could go on but this is a Gladiator review. Jeep really nailed it all the way around. I originally didn’t like the Gladiator when it came out but was intrigued by its +7,000 towing capacity. Go test drive one for yourself you will fall in love with it. You get the Jeep feel with a bit smoother ride due to wheel base.

Traded in My modified 2014 JKU Willy's 6 speed manual on this Sport model. Ya it can go offroad right off the dealer lot, be we all know that modifications are going to be made. So getting the street tires and steel wheel, don't matter. No power windows or lock, cause in AZ the doors can be off most of the time. Only options mine has hard top and automatic. Cause Jeep still has not got the clutch right in the JL/JT.

I’ve owned 3 brand new wranglers (right off the sales floor) then in 2022 pulled trigger on 2022 glad ruby! 95000 on it now. Just like wranglers the wind dicey (better then wrangler on hwy) but the biggest complaint is go through windshield every 9 months, their paper - just like wranglers (8 all together.) wranglers and glad, my 2nd complaint can’t sleep in cab that well - 6 foot 220 - do it, but challenging with a air mattress in back. Off the trail, on the switchbacks or through 2 feet of snow nothing better.

I traded my problem plagued Gladiator in on a 2023 hopeful, given a review by my favorite YouTube critic, Scotty Kilmer. In t he mentioned the solid gas engine, and both the Manual and Auto transmissions as being from excellent sources (Toyota and Hungary). When I got a recent recall notice my heart sank. It was for my 2021! I believe the bugs are kinked out and I will enjoy her for years. So far with 5k miles and 4 months she has been absolutely perfect in every way. Not to mention the number of people who stop my on the road and compliment her.

Bought this Jeep Gladiator Sport S 3.0L Biodiesel Hard Top out of state. I have to say, WOW!. The engine is strong and aggressive compared to the V6. The MPG is amazing. I drove 500 miles and received 29.8 MPG. The engine doesn't hunt for gears and cruises effortlessly. I'm having to get used to driving this vehicle. Had a TJ in 2000 for some time and this is smooth compared to that. The noise is not bad as some say. Having the Wildpeak A/T tire (32") is a little loud but not overwhelming at all and I don't have the liner for the top to decrease sound and honestly, I don't feel I need it. Using my decibel reader from my iphone app it only went as high as 74 Dbs. Its is a fun truck. I know I will need to do more maintenance compared to the V6 but the convenience of the instant torque and mpg far outweighs that. You can get offbrand DEF that is API from Tractor Supply for like $5.88 for a 2.5 Gallon compared to the DEF brand which is $20 for 2.5 gallon. I bought this truck price for $37000 wand used a trade to bring it down to $35500 used with 20000 miles. This is a $58K truck brand new. You will not be saving as much compared to just getting a V6 but being able to drive 500miles without stopping is worth the extra price of owning a Diesel. I recommend this truck.

I’ve owned several Jeep Wrangler vehicles, the first being a CJ 5 with cloth doors and zip down windows . The design hasn’t changed much over the years. Needed a pick up truck so I thought I would go with the Gladiator. Most would prefer a larger bed but the Gladiator was adiquate for my use. Jeeps are rugged and can move through or over anything. Looking forward to driving.

Nighthawk sticker is nothing but lies lol

0 of 0 people found this review helpful

You hear people say constantly that they don't buy a jeep for gas milage and when you're putting large wheels and tires on it I get that. That said - you should at least expect that the sticker is not lying to you. 17 City, 22 Highway and 19 average. I get 16.5 to 17.5 in the city, but I get 13.4 to 15.6 on the highway. Took a trip up to Orange Beach AL, I would pull in and fill up with gas - drive 180 miles, stop and fill up again and highway was just horrible both ways. Again, I get not caring once you start modding but to let them lie to you and the government sign off on those stickers being accurate is just wrong. You know they know they lied too when you call them up and instead of saying bring it in so we can check it out they say well that's just jeep man. Other than that and the nighthawk being the biggest strip down I ever saw I love the jeep - just not sure I would have purchased has I known the truth.
