Jeep Gladiator: A Mid-Size Truck Ready for Big Adventures
It has been a long time since we've seen a midsize truck from Jeep, but the Jeep Gladiator is here at last and it was well worth the wait. Other models in the segment may offer a variant with off-road intentions, but, as the only mid-size truck to carry the Jeep brand's legendary off-road heritage, the Gladiator doesn't limit off-road ability to an individual trim level.
Fully Trail Rated, the Gladiator features special water sealing and a high-mounted intake to allow it to ford water up to 30-inches deep; and ten inches of ground clearance (11.1 on Rubicon models) allow it to pass over obstacles on the trail without a second thought. Standard off-road equipment includes burly Dana 44 axles, skid plates, and tow hooks; for when you need to inevitably assist a fellow trail-goer in a less capable vehicle.
Of course, the Gladiator isn't all play and no work. Motivated by a 3.6-liter V-6 engine (285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque), it brings true hauling and towing capabilities to Lusby and Waldorf drivers. In fact, when properly equipped, the Gladiator leads its class with a maximum tow rating of 7,650 pounds.
Features for the Jeep Gladiator are organized across four well-equipped trim levels:
- Sport
- Sport S
- Overland
- Rubicon
