Way too expensive for a Jeep IMO. If you are a Toyota driver, you will be disappointed in the Jeeps reliability. Chrysler still can't figure that out. I do agree that no other vehicle commonly available in North America can touch the Jeeps off road capability. Too bad Toyota doesn't allow the Landcruiser models from South Africa or Australia into North America. Where did you see this “preliminary pricing”? Not being a smart @$$, serious question because I frequent a site that is comprised of hard core wanna be Gladiator owners and there isn’t so much as a peep concerning official pricing there or anywhere. It was a news release back in late November.

It looks made to fit for that. Yes, but so is the Toyota Tacoma. I still prefer the older Toyota with live front axle. But that is just me.

Too bad Toyota doesn't allow the Landcruiser models from South Africa or Australia into North America. I'd certainly take a hard look at them, but since I'm from Toledo and have owned several, I have a soft spot in my heart for Jeeps. Pricing depends on features and quality. I now drive a RAM 2500 with Cummins diesel, but remember that Jeeps are now owned by Chrysler/Fiat, so they might borrow features and components from RAM. I'll be interested to see. I rode on South Africa KND Toyota Land Cruisers owned by PHs when I hunted in Zambia and they were good and easy to repair but face it, Jeeps are made in the US and the fact is that that's a big benefit in terms of maintenance. (BTW, the Zambia PHs said it was brutal for them to get parts and tires there.)

But the Gladiator is still a mid-sized pickup. I just don't have a use for a mid-sized pickup. well after watching that.... of I really wanted an off road pickup with a Jeep Name Plate on it... Give me the old 1960s period Gladiator....that was a truck... too bad you don't see many of them anymore, any where.... long since rusted out and junked. had one of the old Military ones, that were built as ambulances when I served in the guard....
