@@brokeboy87 The Gladiator would have done significantly better had it been priced in line with Jepp products sold 10 years ago. It's really a shame because there are some good ideas in the product. It needs some quality improvements, some product improvements, and a derivative of the Hurricane instead of the old 3.6.
@@hochhaul Yes, since around last October, the discounts both Jeep and dealer have brought them down into the ballpark of what they should have been selling in the first place imho. So, my basically 61K MSRP version at the 42 and change I paid for it was in the sweet spot.
I’ve had mine for 4 years and almost 60k miles. Most trouble free vehicle I’ve ever had. Never kept a vehicle this long and no desire to get rid of it. The 25 percent off is what they should be selling for. Stellantis really have lost their mind with their price increases.
It’s pretty much what they were offering in March. I got a 2023 Gladiator Willys MSRP was 58,300 wound up getting it for 40k so I would say I got a better deal than what this dealer is offering.
Stellantis SHOULD be worried. They priced everyone out of the market over the past year or two. Couple that with interest rates? That equals "mess". I've watched the Jeep Gladiator prices falling. And 11/13/23, I finally jumped. Got a 2023 Gladiator Willys in High Velocity. MSRP was $56,675. I paid $39,673. That's $17,002 in rebates. Dealer matched Jeep's own rebate of $8,501. No brainer for me 30% off? There were more available with similar deals in Kennewick WA. Two 2023 witth Eco Diesel. Back story there - had a 2014 RAM 1500 Eco Diesel that was absolutely NEUTERED after ECM flash. I sold it 2 months later. Don't get me wrong - there's NOTHING wrong with these other than an MSRP that was jacked up $10-20k over past few years.
Maybe there's nothing wrong with them, but look how much stiff competition in the midsized truck market arrived in just the last year. This 2023 looks ancient, even compared to the 2024 version.
@@CaponeXTF Yeah - I've owned 8. Anywhere from 1995 MY to 4 later models with the Pentastar. What's your point? Put this in perspective - these damn SxS ATVs are selling for more than what I paid. I surely won't be driving a Polaris 140 miles RT to work.....
@@weirdshibainu I bought a 2023 Maverick - granted not a mid sized PU - but at $38k it was a joke. Tremor packackage and all. Look under them for comparison. MAV looked like third world engineering. Crappy wiring bundles. TINY rear axles. Tinny tinny everything. I'll agree I would have bought a TACO at the time, but there were none without ADM. Just saying - I got a deal on a brand I trusted since 1995 with zero issues. I'll just agree to disagree......
@@bufjayup7774 My point is that since the gladiator was first released, we have a new TACO, a Raptor Ranger and a Colorado ZR2. Are they each as capable as the Gladiator? Up for debate, but consumers have choices now.
easy to give discounts if they insanely overprice it in the first place lol edit: wth it's a "buy two deal", incredibly dumb "deal", why would anyone buy two of this monstrosity, even with the deal that would cost them nearly $100k lol
malone would not deal. They have a shit-ton of those white (gray) leather 2023 units, nasty, you'd think they pay you to take those!! ! I paid $43,500 for a Moj. Black Cloth, cold weather package, aux switches etc. MSPR was $63K, down to $43,500! Again, Malone wouldn't deal and their buy one get one was lame gimmick. Me & buddy bought locally in Wasatch the same day. His leather package Moj was only $44500. Deals to be had, but not at K malone. Don't know what they are waiting for. They are all dying on the vine. Miller in Sandy would't deal either. They still have a NEW 2022 rubicon 6 speed they won't sell due t recall. I said add the after market fix and I'll buy. No deal. lame!
I’m pissed I bought my Gladiator for $50,000 for a sport S! Should be law I get some of my money back! This is BS..anyone know how to get some of my money back? 😢
Not really... ZR2 $52-65k Ranger Raptor going for $65-70k. Tacoma TRD Pros are going for $70k. All they really need to do is put their new turbo straight six under the hood.
It's a 25k vehicle. A sport is so cheap it doesn't have power door locks or electric windows. Jeep has some big balls to ask 40K for a midsize truck with roll up Windows
Most potential Gladiator buyers are waiting for more engine options. If you're going to throw on bigger tires and a lift it needs the new straight 6 or a 4xe option.
You’re missing a few very important facts about that v6: it’s still relevant for hp/tq, and they are dead reliable. I took one to 330k miles with no major issues, and my current pentastar is at 130k with no issues.
I bought a 2020 Gladiator and had it for 3 years. It handled better, drove better, and was far more comfortable than the '19 Tacoma TRD Offroad that I had before it...even with a 3 inch lift and on 35" tires! Not a lick of trouble from it, and got great trade in value when I sold it. I was real happy with mine, and when you drop the top on a nice day...home run! Im guessing all the folks throwing stones at this truck havent driven it.
@bobbates7343 Every 3 or 4 years...thats what I do. Except the Toyota, which was so uncomfortable on long rides I kicked it to the curb. Even my wife hated driving in that truck...as a passenger!
That math isn’t mathing. 25% off 2 different vehicles does not equal 50% total price. Hopefully one day a car reviewer will always say the truth: prices are outrageous. None of the justifying these prices.
It's not smart marketing, it's douchy marketing. Sleezy used car salemans bait and switch marketing to get you in their door and waste literally hours of your time. Given the dealership you are at it doesn't surprise me.
can't imagine a car payment on a 50k vehicle just not worth it. you can get T boned or rear ended and it's a total loss plus your insurance goes up probably double just by having a newer car.
Lol Body on frame vehicles are lot tougher then cars. Unless it's a loaded 18 wheeler, you're probably driving of from that fender bender, and getting a shiny new bumper courtesy of their insurance.
That is a price point that will allow Gladiators to be competitive in there class. Mid size truck. Before they were just pricing as if it existed in a vacuum. Stellantis is learning a few lessons. Consumers have limits and if you don't compete with price you will die !!
Ben did you leave something out? You have to use Chrysler Capital to get the discount and their best rate is 10% just another Stallantis scam. I had a 2022 Mojave and lost 12 grand getting rid of it and was thrilled to be in a new ZR2 and out of that POS
Bought a ‘20 in 19, have owned it since. 56k miles, trouble free…and perfect for the deep snow and tough roads in far northern Minnesota! I’d do it all over again for sure!
2020 gladiators were at 49000-55000 msrp. The 2023and 24 haven’t really changed, most changes happening in 25. So ur really getting same jeep from few yrs ago at msrp of few yrs ago. I agree with most people that gladiators should be more in the lower 40’s to 40 range, as most trucks should be! So no I would wait and as market gets worse maybe they will really be discounted. That’s just a marketing ploy to make u think ur getting a deal and really not !
Gee, I got 30% off on a 23 in December 2023 (43K on 61K MSRP) and ONLY had to buy one that checked ALL my important boxes. I got a deal. So, not quite as desperate as then... I wouldn't pay full price but they finally got to my price last Dec. Short window, but I was ready.
I just got into a brand new 2023 Gladiator High Altitude at $20k off of sticker. So just around $45,000. Not a bad deal in my opinion for a brand new car in todays market
Their marketing is out of touch with reality, there's no way Jeep tried to determine what the customer wants, they just followed a trend in settling on this configuration. Not everyone wants the massive 4 door cabin with an afterthought for a cargo area. Pickups are all about work, Jeep, make a real Scrambler and watch how fast they sell! Offer an extra cab version, one platform could be adapted with different bed sizes, and while you are at it, offer a better engine choice.
Hey Ben you should start an assist page where you can help people find their jeeps atthe lowest price if they’re willing to pay you a grand and travel to other states for the best deal cause here in Florida they rob you 😂
The dealers killed this vehicle. At this point any one who wanted one has one. As far as value well again the dealers ruined these. And let's not forget the MSRP to begin with.
Jeep is the least reliable vehicle you can buy. Their reputation is in the toilet. I wouldn’t but this thing for 50k. I don’t care what the sticker says.
25% off, and it's still a toss up value. Shows how overpriced they are. All of the new stuff is overpriced though. Hard to even use the word value at all.
Needs the new hurricane in-line 6 and also needs the corrosion issue fixed. These things and the JL’s have massive corrosion issues and Stellantis doesn’t care but they should as their sales are down 10% in the first quarter. The auto industry is in big trouble with the emissions standards and EV push.
chrysler has so many recalls but they do not have the parts to repair. if u have a jeep or chrysler than you already know and probably have at least one open recall on your vehicle.
I have a 392 and love it. But I love the Gladiators. I’d consider a Mojave if they added a more powerful engine. NOT THAT TERRIBLE 2.0 TURBO. Give us an over built(not over complicated)meaning strong 3.6 turbo or supercharged 375ishhp 375ishtq. Id trade my 4000 mile 23 392 in on one right away.
25% off brings it to $52K. Which still seems really expensive! I love Jeeps - drive a 2012 Rubicon 2 door 6 speed manual - but the prices have just become bonkers - and not just Jeep. At $65K for $5K more you can buy an Ineos Grenadier! Same for the new Toyota LC - my local dealerships have the 1st edition at $90K!!!! And when you see them in the flesh, they look max $50K vehicles.
if you want a pickup with a top off then itis the only option. If discounts get anycrazier I would consider selling y 2020 rubicon with 60k miles and pick a mojave up. Reset to Zero miles for about 15K seems good and I can still take top and doors off
I got 30% off my 2023 Freedom Edition with a 60,800K MSRP in Dec 2023 and that did it for me. So far so good in May 2024. I've wanted one since they first came out but the pricing was outrageous. Not that they can't give them away, so to speak, and a price of 42K and change on an almost 61K vehicle, I was good to go. I wanted the red one, but had to take the Granite Crystal one (same price/equipment) and realized that I also inadvertently got a "night edition" by RAM standards. That made me wonder why they don't have a night edition version of the Gladiator. I see now they do and it ain't cheap.
