I’ve Decided on a Jeep Gladiator - Now Which One

If you decide on a Gladiator then you have to decide on a trim level. Ugh. So many trims, so many options. 

Check the trims out and compare. Link to Jeep Gladiator Model Comparison

It used to be everyone would say the Rubicon is the top of the line  Many now say the Mojave.

If looking for top of the line features and you’re off-roading definition is more dirt and sand then yes Mojave, with its softer more fast impact absorbing suspension with a bit more supple on-road it may be the top of the line for you. 

Very legitimate arguments for why the Gladiator is not the best for Rock Crawling, but if that is where your heart is and you’ve decided on a Gladiator and plan to start stock, the Rubicon would be your top of the line. When it comes to beast mode Road and Track puts it well, “ It (Mojave) will do 90% of what the Rubicon will”. So out on a tough trail that 10% more the Rubicon has might keep you from being stranded. Of course they go on to say, “but the Rubicon can’t do half of what the Mojave can.” Which goes back to definition of off-roaring.

If you lean towards the luxurious side and having 4WD is just a luxury that won’t be taken advantage of that often and that hard, by all means check out the best value trim for that, the Overland.

Next up is the debate for hard-core rock-crawlers  If buying the rig to simply rip everything off and start customizing to your liking the Gladiator Sport with Max Tow Package is a good place to start. 

As you can see there are more options than just these and one of them may turn out to work for you.

Good luck and enjoy!
