Gladiators are cool, but the ZR2 has the edge in my opinion. Have 16k miles on my 2018 diesel ZR2 (in OD green). Put a camper shell and carhart seat covers on it and it’s set. It’s a street legal side by side

Closer to 7k depending on what model and if You go max tow package. Payload is a bit weak though.
That’s below and the mid class competitors, not much really.Closer to 7k depending on what model and if You go max tow package. Payload is a bit weak though.
Have they fixed the airbags going off when your side hilling yet?
The GM for the largest Jeep dealership here in the PHX valley told me he can't give them away right now. I wanted one but it wouldn't tow my trailer.
a few things- I own a stock ‘15 JKUR and put it through its paces in Colorado ( Black Bear, Imogene, Mineral Creek/ Engineer Pass) and Moab (fins and things, poison spider and a few others) all successfully. I’d say the jeeps can do a lot stock, especially the rubicon.
The new gladiator has better transmission/ engine options. It will be a pleasure on and off road.
It, along with all wrangler products, are way overpriced. I paid $37.5k for mine brand new and it didn’t even come with insulation in the floor or roof. They are not made for creature comforts- even basic ones. You pay a premium for the name and less in actual features.
Anyway- if your family is full of custom car builders- keep the comfy Toyota and build a REAL gladiator from 60’s or 70’s. V8 power, killer looks, etc. those restomods are perfect for overlanding.
If your from motor head roots why not buy a 1970's CJ 5. Easy to work on, and as reliable as any Jeep. You can buy them pretty cheap. Keep the Yota as a daily driver. Jeeps have a single purpose, that is to go slow over rough terrain. They are not comfortable. They do not get good mpg. They are loud.
If you want a fun truck get a F150 with the Eco boost twin turbo in Lariat package, spool up the turbo in heated leather seats as you blow by the Jeeps in style and comfort.
only to discover its unreliable or it’s value vanishes overnight.

Those CO trails are pretty much 2wd roads except for a few exceptions. I get a kick out of all the really over built Jeeps up there and then a family in a van comes through. Awesome rig though.
To the OP, investment and Jeep dont belong in the same sentence unless you have something really special. More like money pit. If you like it buy it. They all lose money.
I never thought of myself as sexy while crushing trails in my stock rubi, but I’ll take it. Thanks!Dang that is sexy!!!
